WT CJ4 Speed Brake activation via keyboard?

Is there any way to bind this to  keyboard key stroke?

I would like to know too. I've checked it's assigned in the MFS controls, including arming, but the only way I can get them working is to physically drag the lever with the mouse. There are a few commands available for spoilers so perhaps it uses a different definition?

Right now the toggle function is broken, but you can use lorby AAO to have the key down extend and then the key up retract, so a single key could be a momentary speed brake deploy for as long as you hold the key down.. otherwise you'd need 2 separate keys to perform the function.

Thx Pilatuz, Is it broken for all aircraft or just the CJ4 mod?

As far as I know, SU5 broke it for all planes. I know that it doesn't work in the Latitude.

I had to set two buttons on my yoke. One to extend and one to retract.

Just search for spoiler in options menu and assign extend and retract as you prefer.

I’ve bound mine to the backslash key. Works fine.

Is that based on using 'Spoilers' in the key bindings list? I have that set up but it won't trigger the Speed Brakes

I can't find 'Speed Brake' as a separate listed binding matter in MSFS.

I had another go at this & have successfully bound the keyboard left arrow to Extend Spoilers [speed brake], & the right arrow to Retract Spoilers [speed brake]

The arrows were bound to looking left & right in the cockpit but I don't use them, so should be ok.
