Default troubleshooting with IL-2 Sturmovik 1946

One of the reasons why I uninstalled the game a while back was because of this issue I was having with my flaps.On almost every aircraft, the flaps on my plane constantly drop - meaning that I have to have one hand on the "raise flaps" button constantly. Does anyone know why they do this? It is extrememly aggrivatating to be in a dogfight and have to raise my flaps every five seconds in addition to the other actions that are done in a dogfight. Any help is appreciated.

Now that's something I haven't heard of before, so does this happen with all the aircraft you fly? (ofcourse aircraft that have flaps at all)

the only thing I can suggest is

-have you tried mapping the flap keys to different buttons on your keyboard/Joystick to see if that solves the problem?

-Apart from your keyboard, mouse and Joystick do you hav any other 3th party controller that might cause a conflict?

Are the flaps mapped to a joystick axis ingame?

Have to be that. Or some other controller like Hunter suggested.

That or there's a glitch in his copy of the game.

In any case, can't say I've ever heard off this one before.

unlikely that those would cause the problem, so have you tried to remap /re-assign the keys to different buttons to see if that fixes the flap problem?

Check if the flaps are assigned to a joystick axis at the bottom of the IL-2 key configuration thing, that's most likely the problem...
