 +====== Spad.Next ======
 +
 +Found at spadnext.com, this is a package of "drivers" which sits between devices and a Flight Simulator. It allows convenient routing and calculating of values between devices. It costs about $24.
 +
 +This is an expression which helps fulfill Flight Reversing in MSFS 2020. Basically, you pull the throttle down, then push and hold the Button 7 (Labeled D on the X52 Saitek throttle controller), then push up to run the Thrust Reverser. Letting go of Button 7 returns normal operation.
 +
 +This works by turning the output of Z Axis negative when Button 7 is pressed. Other numbers shown here are needed because the values to be returned to the simulator is about +/- 12K, but the Throttle axis is 0 to 100.
 +
 +Letting go of Button 7 causes positive thrust to give some unwanted boost.
 +
 +  * On Z_Axis, add event for "Axis value changed"
 +  * Simulator event: THROTTLE_SET
 +
 +<code>
 +(100 - [LOCAL:JOY_0X06A30X0255_Z_AXIS])*
 + (-50 - (213 * ([LOCAL:JOY_0X06A30X0255_BUTTON_7] - 1)))
 +</code>
