    Is it possible to see the games telemetry data in use on the virtual output? I am able to see the virtual sliders move when I test the settings but when I launch the game I am not seeing the sliders respond to the telemetry. I do not yet have hardware so I am trying to see if I can get the front end connected and see motion virtually.

    Thanks!

    Thanks @noorbeast I had seen this but wondered if the "virtual output" was meant to replace the need for that? I will give it a shot tomorrow.

    I am getting some jittery movement out of Simtools both in the virtual output and on a motor connected to it. It does not seem to respond at all to Xplane. I did turn on the udp data stream as indicated in the documentation for the plug in.

    Is there a way to see the telemetry data that simtools is getting? I do have the data being displayed on screen in Xplane and it does not correspond with what Simtools is doing.
