When you put the mouse on the lever and press button you may move the mouse... and the lever will also moving.

That is a huge advancement! After years of playing IL-2 I can recognize many or even most gauges in many cockpits but sometimes I'll find myself in a Russian or Japanese plane and there is no way for me to figure out what a certain gauge is aside from wildly guessing. At least with the German ones it sometimes makes sense in English. I'm good at guessing but still...

This is great. Thanks! And thanks for the update...the cockpits are looking superb!

Speaking of cockpits.
Is the Su-26 still in the game? I haven't seen it since those early pics from your dev tools.
