OK, thanks for your advice.
I'm aware I'm still a newbie, but I progress every day. I want to make it works, so I thnak you for you comments, and I will read other posts, and I will try again, and again.
It is strange that it looks so easy, and in fact it is not.
Easy to move the servo with the pololu micro maestro card, and not so easy with the pololu serial transmitter. And more difficult to combine with X-sim.
Thanks again

Hello adbgg

You give already a "start byte"; is the ~255~ at the start.
Try out with changing the 0 to an 8 (~255~~8~~a01~) As you can see in the Manual, 0 is in 90°, 8 in 180°. If you want you can send your rn file so i can give it a try.

For tests you can use the Testtablet, locatet into force sender aplication, so you dont have run a game for testing some values. Also for youre test please let the "calibration offset of this axis" in center, you can use it for fine adjusting later...

Cheers, mbo
