COMMANDS
Boost
On the MK9 this switch operated the Boost Coil at startup, other models automated this function and used a single start switch.
There is no equivalent function in the X-Plane Aircraft Model.
The FlightSimCommand "sim/flight_controls/boost" is for Nitrous boost !
Flaps
Works, but still needs checking - as Spitfire should have only full up or full down and the model seems to have variable position flaps when used with a throttle quadrant.
Cmnd = sim/flight_controls/flaps_down (1 Notch)
Cmnd = sim/flight_controls/flaps_up
Flood Lights
Works, but the Mk 9 has separate Left and Right floods whilst the X-Plane Aircraft Model only supports one switch.
sim/lights/spot_lights_off
sim/lights/spot_lights_on
Fuel Pump - working
This seems to toggle both "Fuel Boost" switch and "Fuel Cut Off"
Cmnd = sim/fuel/fuel_pump_1_on
Cmnd = sim/fuel/fuel_pump_1__off
dref = sim/cockpit/engine/fuel_pump_on[0]
Generator - working
Cmnd = sim/electrical/generator_1_on
Cmnd = sim/electrical/generator_1_off
Landing Lights - working
Cmnd = sim/lights/landing_lights_off
Cmnd = sim/lights/landing_lights_off
dref = sim/cockpit/electrical/landing_lights_on
Magnetos- working
Careful - you need to handle the 2 switches to produce the 4 states
Cmnd = sim/magnetos/magnetos_off_1
Cmnd = sim/magnetos/magnetos_left_1
Cmnd = sim/magnetos/magnetos_right_1
Cmnd = sim/magnetos/magnetos_both_1
dref = sim/cockpit/engine/ignition_on" returns 0 Off 1 Right 2 Left 3 Both
Navigation Lights - working
Cmnd = sim/lights/nav_lights_off
Cmnd = sim/lights/nav_lights_on
Start
Working with a specific starter, generic all starters does not work
Cmnd = sim/engines/engage_starters_1
Strobe Light- working
Cmnd =sim/lights/strobe_lights_on
Cmnd = sim/lights/strobe_lights_off
Tank
Tank Battery is not supported by the X-Plane Spitfire model
The fuel gauge is permanently engaged
