PMDG DC-6 AAO Scripts & StreamDeck XL Profile and MCP template
for LORBYs AxisAndOHs (AAO) and its SD Plugin
by Guenseli
You need LORBYs AAO and its StreamDeck Plugin to run this StreamDeck profile
(AAO StreamDeck XL plugin could be found on the bottom of the AAO download site)
ATTENTION!
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!
- When you import SD profiles, make sure to delete the old ones, otherwise you'll get profile copies.
- Make sure to always have the latest AAO and AAO StreamDeck plugin versions!
- I just create the SD profiles! For any connection issues, SD plugin not working, Buttons show "?" or nothing, no reaction of the SD etc., please contact the developer of AAO! And please read the AAO Manual!
- It is - as the title says - just for the StreamDeck XL (!). Please do not ask for a 15 button conversion. This will not happen as this will more than double the amount of development and support for me as I do not have a 15 button SD. Sorry.
- Please ask if you want to use parts of my SD profiles, icons or AAO scripts or whatever! And please ask everytime you start a new project! You have to credit and link me in your description!
- If you use my work, you are then not allowed to beg for own donations!
Installation:
Import AAO_PMDG_DC6.xml Scripts into AAO
Install DC-6 profile on StreamDeck XL (double click)
Good to know:
If you use the Fuel and Payload feature, please do not overshoot the MAX or MIN values! I was not able to get the stops in my script. So, as example, do not load more then max 68 Pax in the DC6B. With the SD buttons you could press (and therefore load) more internally, even if the loadout manager says still 68 You will screw up the system.
It is fun for me to develop that profiles, however it is very time consuming and complicated. If you like to support this and that I can buy probably future addons, please feel free to make a little donation! Thank you very much!

I do have one question, when I am pressing the Mixture buttons, it only shows cut-off or rich on the eng mixture image on the StreamDeck, however, it works fine in the DC-6 in the sim, cut-off-auto lean-auto rich, and then back down in that order. Is this a bug, or is this a limitation because of how they programmed the mixture to work?

Hello,
In your installation guide you mention to "Open the folder MCP Display Installation and read the ReadMe" I did not find an MCP Display Installation folder in the download. Where can I find this folder?
Thank You

This is a really good profile.
Gyro Pilot Disconnect/connect is not available in AOO. Do you have a chance to add it?

This is a really good profile.
Any plans for an SD+ profile as well?
Guenseli
If you have greyed out buttons, no reaction of the StreamDeck, exclamation marks etc, that means you have connections issues between AAO and the StreamDeck.
94% of all support request are due to no proper connections or outdated versions of AAO and/or the AAO SD plugin.
Check ports, check the troubleshooting PDF, contact AAO support.
My Streamdeck profiles work (beside from probably little bugs). If you have such issues, I can't help you, sorry! Support requests can't not solved by me as I'm not the developer of AAO!

Hello,
Thank you very much for these scripts! Most everything is working fine, except the DME INC and DEC. They just cycle between "off" and "dme 1"
I do not quite yet understand the scripting notation but looks it could be an easy fix.

Guenseli, thank you so much for your hard work.
Would you allow me to make and publish a conversion of your profile for the 15 button SD ?
Obviously you'd be credited for everything.

This Streamdeck is priceless. These details and animated knobs and buttons are super. Absolutely fantastic and the DC-6 has a whole new feeling. Five stars are not enough.

Is there a way to use this with the normal version of SD instead of XL?

You mean the 15 button version?

Many thanks for making it available. A beautiful and useful profile. I am new to stream deck and still struggling with some details but this profile already makes flying the DC-6 much easier that my previous experience with the P3D and Xplane versions

I noticed on the Magnetos and Gen page, there is a dulpication of Mag 3 DEC and Mag 3 Inc where the text should be for Mag 4. Just a text change but thought you may like to update for the next release. Great Work!

Sehr schöne Erweiterung! Die Bedienung der PMDG DC-6 ist mit diesem Plugin deutlich angenehmer. Vielen Dank für diese Arbeit.

Great work - very useful. Would it be possible to add the thrust reverser?
How are you making the gauges for oil temp etc. Is that manual work on the background or automated?
Guenseli author
THX!
Thrust reverser is simply F2, aren't they. Does it really make sense to have them on the SD? I have them mapped onto my throttle. Can't imagine using them on the SD ...
No, nothing is automated ;)
Every single pixel is drawn with InDesign and Photoshop and then calibrating the gauges. Several hours for these gauges
