Hello again, I'm nearing completion of my Endeavor 1A launch system, and the last piece of the puzzle is the strongback. I'd like the strongback to release the vehicle (more like detach with a detacher) and tilt away from the vehicle when I initiate launch by pressing AG-1 and full throttle. However this only works if I put a command chip on the launch pad and do it from there. I can't seem to activate the strongback tilting mechanism when the main chip for the launch vehicle is selected. Any suggestions?

Try broadcasting to the craft in vizzy and then receive that broadcast on the launch pad command chip and then have that command chip set the input you want. You will need to set that command chip as the main one for the strong back rotator.

@Tweedle_Aerospace Gotcha, although I'm a huge noob at Vizzy since I've never used it or played around with it, but I do plan on making a full vizzy automated version of my launch system. The initial version I'm about to release will be manual control.
