While programming a lever to open and close flaps and LEFs my flaps open all the way not in increments. Would like to open and close the flaps as a result of the position of the lever. Any clues? Thanks ~S~

If you are flying the F-16, the flaps and lef's are controlled by the flight control computer. They are set/retracted when the criteria is met (i.e. gear down, speed, etc.). For a while it was considered a cheat to use flaps on f-16 in falcon, it turned into super jet, too much lift. If you are in another jet you have to manually control them with crtl f9 and f10. They are either in or out, no stages. I think the f18 in bms 2 has dual engine control, check that one out. Those levers would also come in really handy for radar elevation.

Thanks Nickel

However, in the F18 there are 3 settings for flaps, full, auto/up, and, half. But as you've described there is only up and down, no half flaps in the game? LEFs work as advertised tho :)

Dirk98,
FF3, it seems as tho in the F/A18 the flaps are automatic in it too. :(
