Virtual Knob

Virtual knob is a component that allows users without physical knobs to interact with the simulator in a similar way. It can be used to control various functions like radio frequencies, autopilot settings, etc.

There are many types of knobs in the SimBox app - with push/pull function, with upper part (knob inside the knob), etc. Each knob can have different events assigned to it.

To help users without physical device, please create configuration as follows:

{
  "virtualKnob": {
    "com1": [
      "upper",
      "lower"
    ],
    "com2": [
      "upper",
      "lower"
    ],
    "speed": [
      "lower"
    ],
    "hdg": [
      "lower",
      "push"
    ],
    "vs": [
      "lower"
    ],
    "altitude": [
      "upper",
      "lower"
    ]
  }
}

Property names are slotName from the components supporting rotation and push/pull events.

Available values: upper, lower, push, pull.
