    Hello everyone. My name is Danila. I'm a complete novice in the world of simracing. I recently put together a platform with the help of a friend. he completed everything for me and sent me a set of actuators. In Dirt rally2, everything works fine through the FlyPT Mover program. Now I'm dealing with SimTools to launch the WRC 23 game. It doesn't work in any way (((((. I bought a license yesterday. Perhaps SimTools is not suitable for my drives. Please help.
    I apologize for my English. I use a translator.

    I'm very bad at settings. The flyPT plugin was sent to me. I was just adjusting the power. I don't understand anything about the simtools program at all. I was looking for configuration information for the srt-80 platform, but I didn't find any information anywhere. I understand that you need to choose the Hyper AXIS plugin instead of SCN. All these settings are incomprehensible to me. I am even ready to give anydesk for help. or maybe some hints . it's very hard for me

    @Lebois is best positioned to give advice, as these are his actuators.

    I wrote to him, but he doesn't answer. I managed to run SRT 80 for WRC 23. but only up and down movements work. leaning forward backward and sideways does not work.
    please look at my settings, maybe I didn't click something.

    That is unfortunate.

    What are your Interface Settings?

    It is not a good idea to use filtering, limiting, or DeadZone until all issues are sorted, it only compounds the possible variables.

    From the pictures it does not seem that Max/Min values have been captured in the Tuning Center.

    The Dir being checked or not determines which way each axis moves.

    Please click here and make sure all 4 corners are working as expected.
    (don't sit on the sim or anything for the is, as its going to move one leg at a time.)
    Please let us know what you find out.

    everything works fine during the test. 1,2,3,4 actuator
    When you run the test, it rises very quickly.
    flyPT is much slower. I've already changed a lot of settings. and to no avail. the only thing I achieved was that after completing the test, rig began to descend more slowly.

    Then you just need to figure out your axis assignments is all.
    Please help me identify what axis1a, axis2a, axis3a and axis4a is (front right, front left, rear right, or rear left)
    Once i know what each one refers to I can help you more.
    Edit - I didn't see the pic you attached.
