Hi Ron, Great tutorial. I have one issue though. Engine 2 will not shut down. Everything else works as it should including feathering.

A bit of an update. Unfortunately the issue came back like a bad smell. However after a bit of messing with the control assignments and some 'funky' behaviour with the in cockpit levers, I managed to track it down to an issue with the #2 engine fuel valve assignment. If I had it assigned as it should be (same as #1) engine #2 will keep running even after putting the aircraft in a supposedly cold and dark state. Weird! My fix is as follows: I cleared the 'toggle fuel valve' settings for both engines, then I tried the shut down procedure again using just the 'condition lever cut off' assignments. This time both engines shut down correctly. Of course, the fuel valves would still be open. So, in the Fuel options, I just assigned the condition lever #1 detent button to 'Toggle All Fuel valves'. This worked. It's not ideal as the valves should be operated independently but at least now I can shut down both engines. Everything else works as per your tutorial. What the root cause is I don't know, but the above is a workaround that works for me. hopefully it may help others out too who may experience a similar issue. Here's an unrelated tip: If you find that the prop levers go full forward after coming out of the feather state, assign props 1&2 to 'Propeller Pitch Hi' but make sure to set the action to 'On release'. You may have to check the action as it doesn't always do it the first time. I got that tip from Mark of SimHanger Flight Simulation so many thanks to him for that one. @@Ron_A._Bolton

Hello Ron, fellow Bravo fixer here... great video... hats off to you for going in as deep as you did but just wanted to let you and other viewers know that you don't need to remove the shaft and all the levers... as you discovered, on each lever there are two small screws and one adjuster screw held in place with a lock nut. As you probably know, the adjuster screw creates a bit of resistance when the lever travels from idle to fully closed. Anyway, if you remove all three, you can gently ease the lever off the shaft making it much easier and quicker to do the repair. Afterwards, reassemble, adjust the adjuster screw using a small allen key to hold the adjuster screw and tighten the lock nut with a suitable spanner. Another tip for you to consider if/when you need to repair any of the other wires, connect the new wire direct to the terminal and then you only need to join the new wire to the original... much neater and in my experience easier as there is very little room inside the lever housing. More information outlining my Bravo repairs in the comments section below KZread by 2020 fs'ers who, to his credit gave me the confidence to attempt the job in the first place.

Hey Ron! My first Stream Deck arrived 5 days ago and I've been playing with it non-stop ever since - it's almost as much fun as actually flying! 😂 I run 3 screens for different programs like LNM, Navigraph, Chrome etc. - however because of the loss of focus when mouse clicks away from the main sim screen causing my Steam Deck's buttons to stop working - started to have a play with Lorbys AAOs and Flight Tracker etc. I read that because they connect directly to the sim without needing to mimic key strokes - the loss of focus doesn't happen. In reality though I found those solutions overly complicated, so I've returned to the simpler process of keystroke mapping. I purchased a nice set of icons so I'll put up with the loss of focus issue as I build out my folders. All the above waffle was only to describe the fact that I haven't flown in several days because I've also been trying to figure out the best way to configure the deck for not just multiple aircraft folders (profiles??) and their own sub-folders, but also the best way to set an upper level to handle a few other standard buttons like Chrome, Gmail, Little Navmap etc. I've created a single MFS button to get into the flight sim profiles - but then I was uncertain about the best folder structure to give easy access to everything with minimal button presses during flight. Your video just showed me how to create the kind of structure I need - so a big thank you from just north of Sydney! Mike... 😊👍🏻 🇦🇺

Thanks very helpful. However, please note that you don't actually need to remove the circular part with the blades to just replace the battery. So for other viewers start from the 8 minute mark of this video if you just need to replace the battery. This is especially important as on mine the screw posts broke when I tried to undo the 3 screws that hold the circular blade holder together; those three screws seems to have welded themselves into the posts on mine or were perhaps glued in. . If you can accept a slight (22% or so) reduction in running time there are batteries with solder tags available (search on "18500 3.7V 1100mAh Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery with Solder tabs") on ebay etc that are therefore much easier to fit. Just desolder the exiting tags on the PB board and solder the new battery in at the new tags. There are also ones with solder tabs on Amazon with 1400mAH albeit a bit pricey.

Excellent, excellent video which saved me a lot of time and money getting my Janome Memory Craft 4900 repaired. I also received an Error 1 message every time I turned on my machine and getting it serviced in my small community is out of the question as it requires a three hour drive one way and a five-month wait. Your video enabled me to do the fuse replacement myself and I also serviced the machine myself as I have enrolled in an online course so that I can service my three different Janome machines myself. Thank you so much😊
Glad it helped you out.
Thank you! You saved me an expensive repair. It was difficult to track down the fuse, but once i found it the repair was simple by following your instructions!
Thank you very much, you helped me. Health to you and good luck!👍
very interesting and cleaver Ron. Did you try to setup the new LoupDeck Live that has 6 incremental knobs. Thak to schare this idea and configuration
Hi, I have not had the opotunity to test that unit yet.
After last fs2020 avionics update it doesn’t work. Any suggestions?
Hi, it's working on mine after the update, did a flight yesterday in the 787. Are you using the Heavy mod? The PMDG 737, partially works but has always been like that. Hype, H145 only partially works since they changes to the Asobo flight model. The controls work, but not the displays, well not for all. IAS for one does not display. What is not working for you, and what aircraft?
Thank you for your answer. 787 not heavy mode. Previously, when starting from cold and dark gate or starting directly from runway, all controls were running except HDG. At the moment, the ALT, HDG, IAS and most importantly the NAV key does not work.
Done, I solved 😊
@@cengiz4468 Fantastic , you should try the Heavy mode, also works with the 787-8. In my video series I provide a free check list too. You will have a lot more fun with that mod applied.
Tijdje bezig geweest om de juiste uitleg te vinden op KZread . Bedankt voor je geweldige uitleg . Duidelijke uitleg om met de plug-ins een programma te maken op de stream deck .
Bedankt dat je de tijd hebt genomen om te liken en een reactie achter te laten. Ik ben blij dat de video nuttig voor je is, veel plezier met vliegen!
From a real King Air 200 pilot, thanks Ron!
My autopilot buttons, landing gear, toggle switches and flaps suddenly stopped functioning. Honeycomb gave me a throttle tester and it was indeed broken. Do you have a fix for this?
Sorry I have not seen that. If you open it up and look for a broken wire, it woukd most likely be between the io controller and the front switch board.
If you press cancel and 4x resume, it will print an enginge statuspage
Thank you!! Been looking for this set up!
Ron: Just wanted to say thank you for an excellent video. I've flown the KA350 for almost two years and have never had the full use of the condition levers and prop feather. Super job. Now after applying your tips, It's my go-to trip taker. Keep up the good work. Excellent presentation, editing and facts..
Is that an add-on for the sim? Looking for sea life to add to the Caribbean. Thx
Was an add on for Bishops Rock lighthouse from memory.
Extending the flight stick like this takes helo flying in sims from being a pain in the neck to actually being fun.
Here are your solutions for bending the PVC pipe: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lZ982sWrnrWzZZc.html & kzread.info/dash/bejne/omWHr7GJkcTQl7w.html
Nice setup! To be honest though I would have simply sold the logitech multipanel and switch panel myself but it's. I'll how you've configured it!
Hey Ron! My first Stream Deck arrived 5 days ago and I've been playing with it non-stop ever since - it's almost as much fun as actually flying! 😂 I run 3 screens for different programs like LNM, Navigraph, Chrome etc. - however because of the loss of focus when mouse clicks away from the main sim screen causing my Steam Deck's buttons to stop working - started to have a play with Lorbys AAOs and Flight Tracker etc. I read that because they connect directly to the sim without needing to mimic key strokes - the loss of focus doesn't happen. In reality though I found those solutions overly complicated, so I've returned to the simpler process of keystroke mapping. I purchased a nice set of icons so I'll put up with the loss of focus issue as I build out my folders. All the above waffle was only to describe the fact that I haven't flown in several days because I've also been trying to figure out the best way to configure the deck for not just multiple aircraft folders (profiles??) and their own sub-folders, but also the best way to set an upper level to handle a few other standard buttons like Chrome, Gmail, Little Navmap etc. I've created a single MFS button to get into the flight sim profiles - but then I was uncertain about the best folder structure to give easy access to everything with minimal button presses during flight. Your video just showed me how to create the kind of structure I need - so a big thank you from just north of Sydney! Mike... 😊👍🏻 🇦🇺
Hi, for some reason I can't get the condition levers to go into cutoff, have the bravo configured the same as yours, cheers.
Could be minor differences from mine. Others have posted their values too. What is the cockpit animation doing?
@@Ron_A._Bolton Hi Ron, it goes through the full movement from idle to high but won't go to cutoff when I move to the detent position, cheers.
@@johnf6545 I'll have a look today see if anything might have changed.
Can you confirm you have condition lever 1 cut off assigned to joystick button 28 and condition lever 2 cut off assigned to joystick 33. I also have toggle engine 2 fuel valve assigned to joystick button 33 Also make sure you have turned the starters off or the props will keep spinning.
@@Ron_A._Bolton Yes I also assigned engine fuel 1 to shut of on condition lever one cutoff, not sure if it was necessary. The props feather as you demonstrated and shut down. Warnings remind to shut starters off. Beast of an AC.
Thank you so much for making this video! I'm notorious for blowing this fuse in the machine once or twice a year - and this walkthrough has saved us so much time and hassle as I need it for work. Very much appreciated, thanks again!
Glad it helped.
Great tutorial, well explained, easy to understand, thanks.
Each time I get the latest PSP I revisit this to remind me how to do this. Many thanks for posting it.
Hey CHANNELNAME, do you have an email address at which we could contact you regarding this video? We would be interested to discuss a license to use this video if this is generally possible? (i.e. via email) 🙂 Cheers, Felix
Happy to talk, please put your email here.
@@Ron_A._Bolton Sounds good! Our email is provided on our channels about page! :)
How's the joystick holding up so far?
Really well, no issues so far.
@@Ron_A._BoltonMay I ask how much different does it feel from the original version. I would imagine that the weight added by the extensions may make it more loose as shown in the video, but does accuracy actually improve? Is there really a substantial precise movement difference Also I would like to make you the suggestion of 3d printing a round bearing to sit on top of the spring, there's a video on it, I will try it out since it makes the stick stay in place, which would be the cherry on the top for this set-up, just a thought. Anyway, let me know!
@@DonJuan247 sure, please send the link. The fine accuracy is definitely better with the longer stick, so you can input finer movements, still only move the stick small ammounts, very close to the feel of a real cyclic, but without the feedback. Still makes landing a lot better and more accurate.
@@Ron_A._Bolton Oh great that's good to know! Here's the link for the mod I was talking about kzread.info/dash/bejne/p36VtcWKe9uuZdI.html
@@DonJuan247 I watched, thanks, I had one installed before, but put it back to normal, it slips outside the dead zone and kicks the ap off, if my dog comes in and bumps the stick when I'm not using it, I would find myself in the ground before I knew what was happening. If it works for you then all good.
Nice video Ron. I adapted a joystick in similar way recently but I find that adjusting the sensitivity is problematic. Due to extending the cyclic length it requires further directional travel and not really what i hoped for. Any suggestions for improvement? Such as advice for cyclic sensitivity settings or adjusting the axis 'curves'? Thanks in advance.
I did adjust the sensitivity graphs to get it dialled in. Once you have it set once it seems to stick ok.
Thanks very much. I'll keep tweeking the settings then and persevere. 👍
nice job. So how do you physically mount the switch panel to the bravo etc? What kind of screws do you need to get?
I built a perspex mount. I used M4 screws.
Do I need the device or I can use mobile apps from stream deck mobile
You need to get a StreamDeck, they come in 9, 15 and 32 button versions.
@@Ron_A._Bolton to make it work for both?
@@pikechris6564 I believe the StreamDeck software only works with the StreamDeck hardware, but there are other options that work with Apple or Android hardware, I however have not used either.
Thanku Ron I tried and do this one now jammed up showing error code
The fuse is jam protection, so it's time to get the machine serviced. Good luck, hopefully it just needs oiling.
Thanks very helpful. However, please note that you don't actually need to remove the circular part with the blades to just replace the battery. So for other viewers start from the 8 minute mark of this video if you just need to replace the battery. This is especially important as on mine the screw posts broke when I tried to undo the 3 screws that hold the circular blade holder together; those three screws seems to have welded themselves into the posts on mine or were perhaps glued in. . If you can accept a slight (22% or so) reduction in running time there are batteries with solder tags available (search on "18500 3.7V 1100mAh Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery with Solder tabs") on ebay etc that are therefore much easier to fit. Just desolder the exiting tags on the PB board and solder the new battery in at the new tags. There are also ones with solder tabs on Amazon with 1400mAH albeit a bit pricey.
