Toggle, gear up, and gear down are all self explanatory... what else can be done to landing gear that necessitates a "set gear" button assignment? Reader corrected me on Gear UP and Gear Down being available 🙂 (I was thinking of no ParkBrake ON nor ParkBrake OFF which is annoying). Having SET and CYCLE are handy because there are two kinds of switches. Keyboard switches that go off (cycles the DX state to OFF) when you release them. And some toggle switches (not all of them) remain where you put it and don't move back when you release it (and the DX state goes OFF or stays ON depending on which type it is). It's like you pushed a keyboard key and then held it down continuously versus you released it instead. DX state 0 = off DX state 1= on I have a (wonderful) Desktop Aviator panel (purchased here in the market forum) that has genuine toggle switches. And there is one Yoke that people here write about (I don't have one) that apparently also has the same type switches that stay on when released. I use a SET command for parking brake on my Warthog throttle (Warthog throttle also has some toggle switches that are spring loaded too. Both kinds.

February 13, 20215 yr One good way to learn what the SETs do versus CYCLEs is to assign a Set Gear command to a keyboard key and a Cycle Gear command to a different key. Then when flying, hold down a key and don't release it, wait awhile then release it. And watch when and how the gear reacts. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

February 13, 20215 yr I want a re-poll! I had some CTD's today - I found out they are related to the latest Bing data disaster! Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind). I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

I was just thinking about it in terms of keyboard keys or buttons, which is why is did not make sense to me. I had never considered physical switches, but in that context it's perfectly logical.

February 14, 20215 yr I went from August to mid-January, flying about 10-hours a week, with not a single CTD. I experienced several in late January and now can not fly for more than a hour without a CTD. Just had one flying KSAN to KSBA with no scenery mods installed.

It's allot better than before but it's still an issue. Wish it was a non-issue on my end like others are reporting.
