January 20, 20224 yr I have a yoke / pedals / and throttle setup. Does this mean when I am saving controls in the p3d controls menu I have to save separately for each of these or is it all contained in one file? Seems it often isn't fully saving the changes I make. Thanks! AMD 5830X Nvidia RTX 3060 Win 11
January 20, 20224 yr All assignments are stored in your standard.xml file at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\Controls. Replace <username> with the correct path name.

January 20, 20224 yr It should save everything into the one file. I am using 3 devices and don’t have any issues. AMD Ryzen 5900X - Asus Crosshair VI Hero - G.Skill 32GB (2x16GB) 3000 C14 DDR4 @ 3600 14-14-15-14-28-42 AMD Red Devil Radeon 6900XT 2700/2112 1125mv - 3 x Iiyama G-Master GB2888UHSU 4k @ 11560x2160 Saitek X-55 Rhino - Track IR5 - Obutto Sim Cockpit + Triple Monitor Stand - Fancy some Techno? https://www.mixcloud.com/dj_bully/
January 20, 20224 yr Author Okay yes thanks for this...what I'm wondering is if I set up all three components in the p3d menu and do all the assignments the way I'd like--do I simply hit "export" and save this as a single file, or do I need to set my assignments for the pedals, export separate file for pedals, throttles, yoke?

January 20, 20224 yr Nope just one file for all 😎 AMD Ryzen 5900X - Asus Crosshair VI Hero - G.Skill 32GB (2x16GB) 3000 C14 DDR4 @ 3600 14-14-15-14-28-42 AMD Red Devil Radeon 6900XT 2700/2112 1125mv - 3 x Iiyama G-Master GB2888UHSU 4k @ 11560x2160 Saitek X-55 Rhino - Track IR5 - Obutto Sim Cockpit + Triple Monitor Stand - Fancy some Techno? https://www.mixcloud.com/dj_bully/
January 21, 20224 yr I export my controls to my desktop. If they somehow get messed up I just load up and import the file.

January 21, 20224 yr It looks as there is a bit of confusion here.... Standard.xml saves the default flight and settings, if you delete it , iP3D will create a new one. In the Options controls when you setup your controls to your liking and then you export them, they are saved as a file of your naming ( say date and aircraft ) I have a set for fixed wing and one for helos. that file is saved in xxx...documents\Prepar3d v5 Files as xxx(your choice).xml when you start a flight you can then go to controls and import the file that you created for that particular aircraft... if anything goes wrong you import that file again and done......Purr is doing this as you see... regards Jorge
January 21, 20224 yr I also follow Jorge's approach above in exporting the controls based on the aircraft type I am flying e.g. 4 engine jet or 2-prop plane. I always save a copy of those exported control files before I uninstall P3D and then i use the import function once P3D is installed again in the case of an update.
