    yes that's the right one. now configure interface settings as noorbeast posted and check your wiring.
    if they are all correct then configure axis assignments. default profile for manual testing and LFS profile for testing it in game

    Yeah, I did all of that already. Nothing. Using exactly Norrbeasts settings. Manually sending commands through Arduino Serial Monitor Works.

    i am not an arduino expert but i think you are using the wrong sketch.

    i thought that you can move the servo through arduino IDE only in debug mode but could be wrong.

    Almost does not count with settings, yours are incorrect and the ones I posted are correct.

    I also posted the code link so you can download it again and use it, that way we know you have a vanilla setup setup with correct settings, which helps with future troubleshooting.

    Ok, got everything worked out now. Com Port was wrong. I didn't see it because SimTools didn't display my Com. Arduino secretly switched to Com4. Before it was Com3. SimTools only displayed Com3. Reinstalled it and everything works now.

    Sorry for all the confusion.
    Thank you for all your support!
