I've bought PFE and Voice Packs and i have FSUIPC in registered version.
I have a problem that I cannot solve.
PFE works fine but sometimes during the flight I can no longer control the extension of the flaps and the landing gear.
If i press G the lever on the cockpit moves but the gear is not lowered.
If i press F5 F6 F7 F8 lever command moves but the flaps do not move.
Then when I land if I press "." (or left click on the mouse) the brakes are not working.
This happens only during the flight because before take-off it all seems to work fine.
When this problem happens and i close PFE i have some "Hit Key Location Error" messages.
I asked on Peter Dowson forum but he said that is not an FSUIPC problem.
PFE FSX and FSUIPC run on windows 8.1.
Is there a way to solve this problem?
I apologize for the bad English.
Thank you.

Sorry, PFE does not do anything with gear or flaps!

Thank you for your reply but I wonder why when I close my PFE reports the "Hit Key Location" error.
If does not affect hotkeys PFE should not detect any error.
Could it depend on an incorrect installation?
Excuse my insistence but I'm not an expert.
Greetings

The hotkey message is a different matter and could be as a result of another FS addon using the FSUIPC Hotkey facilities. Please EMAIL me ALL the files you have in your PFE\Logs folder.

This is very interesting as I am getting the same problem. Every so often I get a failure no matter what aircraft I am using.

Although the aircraft indicates that the gear has retracted when you look at the outside view you see the wheels are still down.

Recently when flying the Learjet I get the message that the brakes have failed.

I thought this might be a configuration error and checked the settings in FSX and found that no failures had been checked.

These failure never occurred before I installed PFE.

A strange problem, but one that I can't live with.

I flew an entire flight, although a short one, with the wheels down an upon landing the plane crashed because the program determined that the wheels were up.

I've never known that to happen....i've used ProFlight 2000,PFE v1.7 to 2.15 and no issues like this.
Where do you have it installed (PFE)

PFE is installed on the C drive in the folder FS_Addons.

There is an "E" key for emergencies, however, pressing that key does nothing.

I have to wonder, since I have pressed that key, if that may have started the problems that I am having.

Thanks for the response.

Wayne
