Ok for some reason the answer to this is doing it's very best to not to come to mind. My controller will shortly be taking an impromptu flying lesson out of the window, unless some kind person here present can save it from this fate.

What I need is a switch that turns on, then immediately off, and remains off even if the input remains active. The switch would only then activate once again, if the input is activated again.

I am sure there is a very simple answer to this, but my brain cells seem to be on strike.

Use a one-shot timer set to 0.1 seconds. It will fire once and only once for a split second until the input is reset again. :)

I'm kind of confused by what you're asking. Maybe you could give example of application?

That's was what I needed xD Thanks :D

Even better is a counter. Set to one with a wire running from it's output to it's reset switch. The reason it is better is that it doesn't take .1 seconds to fire. It fires immediately.
