I've been having a great time playing with your program, flying the
gliders and messing around with the physics and all the other cool
options. It runs great on a Mac after following the instructions on this
board - thanks! Today I tried out the F3F racing.. it is really fun -
though am not sure which side to start on?

I use the RealFlight InterLink controller but none of the predefined
joystick settings worked quite perfectly since they use joystick_5 for
the rudder. For others using this controller, these two settings get
everything working (ail, elev, rud, th). One uses the upper-right knob
as throttle, RFG3_knob_th. The other uses the throttle stick for
throttle (but is always on a little), RFG3_norm_th. Don't know if it
works with version G4, G4.5 controllers.

Would *love* to get the red button on the controller to fire missiles
and also set one of the switches to reset the glider, so I'll be taking
a closer look the next week or so. Let me know if anyone has some
pointers.

Here's the config info for the RealFlight InterLink Controller (ver. G3,
G3.5) add it to your cfg configuration file at the end, and also change
the default control option:

#For RealFlight InterLink G3 Controller:
#joystick_3 is throttle
#joystick_4 is the upper-right rotating knob
#joystick_5 is rudder
#todo: figure out flaps & reset function numbers, get button working for
function 5: missile fire

#RealFlight G3 controller with throttle set to the knob
begin control_method
name RFG3_knob_th
joystick_1 1

joystick_5 4
joystick_5_exp 1.3
#using knob for throttle since throttle is always on with stick

#all working above.. the following is trying to get missile fire &
glider reset working
