Default MSFS control assignments

[piedmonitor]

Unless I'm missing something, the only info I see in the manual for the Dukes for mapping hardware is for more complex programs like A&O etc.

For those of us still doggedly bashing our heads against the wall with default MSFS control assignments, is there a table somewhere of which assignments correspond to which controls?

As of right now I am specifically looking to figure out how to bind:

• The CWS button the yoke
• The pitch knob on the autopilot

Pitch knob is in the thread immediately below this one :-)

I'm struggling bizarrely with assigning the piston mixture levers in spad next to the standard mixture axes - when I do and move the lever I hear something move somewhere but the mixture lever isn't it. I see there are LVARs for the engine controls but as throttle and pitch can be assigned to standard axes I'd expect mixture to be possibe too.

It's late so I will look with fresh eyes in the morning. I did of course fire it up and do a circuit at Sedona for science - very nice landing behaviour and the sounds are awesome :-)

Thanks, but that's for people assigning via LVARs in programs like Spad and AAO, I'm trying to see if there's a binding for it in the default MSFS interface as asked in the original post.

Oops my bad - like I said it's late and I should stop scrolling...

@piedmonitor I have tried to find a default MSFS assignement, but unsuccefully for the time being. I hope there is an option, at least, to have a pitch knob assignement.

I would also like to know the default MSFS control for the autopilot pitch wheel. The one I use for the King Air (autopilot reference vs) does not seem to work on the Duke.

+1 to this, please. i'd like to be able to control both cws and pitch trim with in-sim bindings, if possible.

I am using my default Logitech Multipanel AP SPAD.neXt bindings. VS and even FLC working flawlessly.

I also tried using the autopilot pitch trim that I use in the FSW C414 and that doesn’t work either. I’m not sure what else to check.

[musefan]

Search for "decrease AP pitch hold reference" and "increase AP pitch hold reference". These work for me. I only know this, because the Learjet needs the same mapping

[Gilandred]

@musefan just tried it, and as far as I can tell it only controls the electric pitch trim wheel, but not the AP pitch trim rocker switch (wheel) which is what we are looking for.

[musefan]

@Gilandred hmmm not for me. For me it's controling the pitch when the AP is engaged. Unfortunately the rocker switch doesn't animate when you do it, so it will look like it's not working. There's also an invisible click spot just to the right of the altitude selector, you might find that easier to use

[Gilandred]

I checked against the vs speed indicator because as you said the trim wheel itself wasn’t animating. I can use the mouse to move the wheel, but the AP pitch hold reference seems to only fight the autopilot.
