Skipper,

I've read the tutorial.

Good job.

Nice and simple.

Is the map supposed to be cut off at ~G?

Anyway, little I could add but fix some grammer errors.

;)

I will send it back later today.

Thanks Snee,

I got your E-mail. I now see all the map.

Spell check?

This is a good bit of work.

A fine example of the KISS principle!

Simple
Straight forward
Lavishly Illustrated
and CLEAR as a bell!

Salute, m8! ^:) ...and the next beer is on me! :beer:

An additional ^:) to all who have/will contributed/contribute to this discussion (and others) in the on-going effort to improve our skills.

I've been collecting these and other suggestions/instruction, printing them, and inserting in a 3-ring binder which I keep on hand for quick reference.

I love you m8s!

Complex Engine Management- Key assigns

Post by :FI:Sneaky_Russian » Tue Jun 27, 2006 9:18 pm

Some may find this helps set up keys for :-
  • Select engine
    Prop pitch
    Mixture
Sneaky's key assigns

With too few buttons and not enough keys;I made these groupings.
