    Hi everyone. I apologize if I'm in the wrong section, but I tried searching and couldn't find anything.
    I recently mounted my station (6DOF), and tried the configuration on simtools (7 AMC AASD15A with @Thanos.) The problem is that when I run the test output it doesn't detect the Surge. Is there a guide for my 7 servos? Thanks.

    Did you capture the Max/Min values in the Tuning Center and can you please post a picture of it while the game is running.

    No i don’t. I simply try the outputmode. When i move the different parameters all the actuators work except the Surge mode.

    Output Testing uses the Default profile in Axis Assignments, so can you please post a picture of that.

    I think in simtools is the axis1b (since first 6 actuators are on slot a)

    Hi everyone.
    I have these 2 problems:
    1) When I turn on the actuators and then the PC the TL rear actuator automatically extends to the maximum, and when I turn off the PC it does not return to its initial position.
    2) The FTL actuator does not move. If I activate it directly from the AASD it works.
