Mixture Control On T16000 Slide?

[Fritz_Fagioli]

I've come to like using the mouse for head tracking along with that using the mouse wheel for throttle.  So my first thought for utilizing the slider on the T16000 was for mixture.  Problem is after I bind it and check the movement on the graph it doesn't move the lever when I'm in plane.  Is there some reason for it not to work?  Do I need to toggle auto mix off or something?  Thanks for any help.

Try assigning it as "button presses" instead of axes. That worked for me when I had problems assigning radiator and vertical stabilizer controls.

Oh ok but How do I accomplish that?

Currently I'm away from home so I can't be certain, but there should be an assignment field labeled "Mixture axis", underneath it there should be fields "Enrich mixture", "Lean mixture" - use those.

Well I feel kind of stupid.  I was using the D Va and just found out it doesn't have mixture control?  What the heck is that lever on the far left then?  It never moves! lol What planes can I "get into" to check the function while on the ground?

Yep works smooth as butter.  I did learn in single player you need to toggle the auto mix off.  Having it on the T 16000 slider is perfect IMO
