Actually ... there is, I kinda like the idea of building my own hardware Yoke and Pedals, and not use any plastic toy at all. You know, just for fun, no need, out of curiosity :-) Anyway, both input and output with a telnet connection causes that little bit of delay that makes it not realistic at all! No matter if it's FGFS getting its Yoke movements, or an external Gear Status Indicator receiving its state from FGFS, it all happens with that little delay that I really won't accept. I never got less than 1/10th of a second of delay with Telnet ... that's noticeable, believe me. I simply don't like it. I think Telnet will still be very usefull for other stuff, something that does not need a precise synchronization with the simulator. Feel free to provide me new hints on using proficiently Telnet+FGFS, I'm still open-minded about that :-) -- GMX DSL Doppel-Flat ab 19,99 Euro/mtl.!
