Got VA working in OH-58d... but flight commands are recognized but not executed!

[WB5DOT]

My Barundus commands for flight is showing as being recognized in VA but not executed... as in:' Barundus climb 100 feet' or 'Barundus climb to 100' feet or 'Barundus fly 100 feet' or 'Barundus assend 100 feet' or 'Barundus descend 100 feet' .  I have these bound to my Warthog joystick and works just not Barundus.  Same for 'Barundus speed up' or 'Barundus increase speed 10 knots'.  Now with that said 'Barundus stop' or 'hover' or' take off' works fine and AI also 'f one', 'f two', 'f three' etc. are working too.  So in essence just flying around in AI is not working.  Any advise?

Just curious, I wonder if anyone here on this forum has got the flight AI flight commands specific to flying... as in (increase altitude, decrease altitude, increase speed, decrease speed) type commands to work via VoiceAttack for the OH-58B.  I have had the same problems with VoiceAttack on AH-64D as well too.  Anyone else or is this just me?   

Thank you!

Why not use something easier to understand than Barundus? I'd say something like 'BB up 100' , I find with VA the simpler the better. I struggled with IL-2 Sturmovik and the landing gear. My solution was 'Wadda Drag' (wheels down, creating drag) and 'streamline' for wheels up. I know it sounds a bit funny, but I know what they mean and now VA does too. Just experiment with different commands and remember, the more distinctive the sound, the easier it is to understand. Just my own opinion of course. Good luck.
