ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue: When I assign the Collective axis to a controller it works for the Asobo Cabri, Robinson, and H125, but not with any others including the default (but 3rd party) Bell.
I can assign the collective axis using scanning, so the sim sees the controller axis just fine and it works without issue for the Asobo made helos, but for all other 3rd party helos, it doesn’t move at all. I have tried deleting the controller profiles and trying again. I have checked all assigned axes for all controllers and there is no conflict. When I try assigning Collective to the Z axis on my CH Combat Stick it doesn’t work there either although I usually assign helicopter throttle to that axis and that works fine.
Someone else reported this in the User help area and said:
“When I move it with the mouse the spad.next eve t monitor shows the collective B variable changing. But I cannot make any input event affect the collective. This also applies to discreet incr and decr events for the collective.”
So it seems there is a Collective B variable that is not affected by the Collective axis that shows up in the control menu, but this only seems to affect a limited number of users, so it may be hard to reproduce.
