Wilco Tilt Rotor

Postby Travis » Tue Dec 29, 2020 8:37 am

So I've flown back in to do the simming again.....

I've purchased the Wilco Tilt Rotor, and it seems to be a great aircraft, but the throttle and prop axes (what's the plural of axis?) are switched. I'm using an X-52 HOTAS and Win10. I have FSUIPC installed, but there aren't any functions to change the axis levers. Anyone know anything about the aircraft in relation to joysticks? Their homepage and help page have very little to offer......

Not a controller issue, since it works just fine with every other aircraft. Wilco just uses the prop setting as a throttle on the Tilt Rotor.

Welcome back.

I don't have a HOTAS controller or FSUIPC installed right now but is it not possible to change the axes assignments (this is correct plural) from FSX controls settings?

Hi Travis,
I also have the Tiltrotor and love it. Over at Flightsim.com they have this zip file, rcbvcb40.zip. This will change the prop and power axis's to a normal axis. Add throttle and she takes off with power. Props are on auto, I believe. There is a lot less lag in adding or decreasing power.
Enjoy.

Thank you, Jungleace! Just what I was looking for, although I got it from AVSim, since I'm registered there. Takes a few minutes, but worth the effort. I can now use the throttle to input power!

Excellent Travis,
After I posted I saw it on Avsim too. I am glad, a fun aircraft.
