    Can't get Spad to work with Mixture controls. What are the LVARS for this?

    @meh1951 I don‘t know exactly out of my head, but they are easy to find. Something with bksq and mixture. :-)
    And you have to scale the output of the custom axis to 0-1.

      This from the manual FAQs chaps...

      Microsoft Flight Simulator’s turbocharger simulation has been significantly flawed for several generations. This aircraft has a custom turbocharger that fixes nearly all of these issues, and is much more realistic, as a result. To make these changes, the new “Input Event” system is used to intercept hardware and key-bindings for the mixture control axis. Please make sure that your hardware bindings are using the Key Events, such as “K:MIXTURE1_DECR_SMALL”, or “K:MIXTURE1_SET” to set the mixture, and not setting either “A:GENERAL ENG MIXTURE LEVER POSITION:1”, or “B:FUEL_Mixture_1_Set”. Alternatively, setting “L:BKSQ_MixtureLeverPosition_1” from 0-100 will also work to set the mixture axis"

          Where can I find out more about the syntax of the above variable.
          I got it to work once but after shutting down and restarting it has not worked since.

            @lemny Hmm... 0-1 seems to be a bug in spad.next. It's now fixed and I can use 0-100 again.

                @bjratchf Simply add a custom axis with 0-100 scaling and BKSQ_MixtureLeverPosition_1 & 2 as target.

                      Rescale value: YES -> from: 0 to: 100

                          @meh1951 I am not sure if your target is correct. Looks like a "Profile" variable and not the regular LVar.
