Hey guy, what's the key binding name to deploy the spoilers on the FBW A320 1 notch? My current setup deploys them 100% or 0%.

I want just 1 notch per key press. What's that called? Thanks!

There does not appear to be a key binding to increase/decrease spoilers notch by notch. You can assign an axis (if you have a free one) to the spoilers to set them to any position you wish, but other than that, the only other choices are full or no spoilers, or arm/disarm spoilers (for landing).

thanks for setting the record straight then. this seems like a big feature gap, especially for jetliners. descending and throwing on full spoilers will not be very fun

I don't see this as an issue or feature gap.. Assign it to an axis for adjustment if needed. Or use the mouse and drag to the desired setting.

Can you let me know how to assign it to an axis on my Hotas Warthog?  I've tried a number of times but it doesn't seem to work.  I have a switch assigned to arm them, but haven't been able to set an axis to it

but it really is a gap. it's common sense to be able to assign a key to simply extend/retract spoilers by a single notch. and much more realistic. if you want to extend it 100% you press the key multiple times. not everyone has extra axis to assign around. a keyboard shortcut is the obvious answer here, as you can assign almost anything else this way. thus it's a gap

for example, if the only way to control flaps was have them either 0% or 100% deployed, I'm sure you would agree that was a feature gap. sure you could use your mouse but that's not really the way to do things in computer flight sims all the time

I've been flying since fs4.0 and never needed it to be notch by notch. But feel free to send it to zendesk.

If you show us the „notches“ for the speedbrake in an A320, maybe we will acknowledge the „feature gap“ 🙂
