Ok... here's the deal. You can use the flap lever as it is right now (assigned to an axis) and it will move the flaps up and down. The problem is that the handle animation is broken for use with axes and will only move to the all up or all down position. Good news is the animation issue does not affect the actual position of the flaps.. .bad news is that the flap handle can not provide feedback as to the actual position of the flaps. However, the flap indicator on the panel does work and can show you the actual flap position. In addition, the next update will fix the flap handle animation! One last note: When using an axis for flaps, the handle is infinitely positionable... there are no detents. So, if you are going to use an axis, you will need to position the handle carefully in order to properly simulate how the flaps work in the real world. Jim Lead Programmer LES Saab 340A
