  • And why, why for god sakes they did not simply keep the keys from MSFS? Was there ANY reason e.g. to put «set altitude» on the comma insted of «B». It is suchrthings that leave me shaking my head in p

  • In the control assignments, there's a keyboard profile with the 2020 keyboard assignments. Select that, and everything will be familiar again. (It's what I did.)

Seems that the B knob doesnt work in msfs24. What is the name of the function that sets the altimeter to the correct pressure?

Pretty sure it's just the "Set Altimeter" option. I think default binding is currently the , key.

As far as views go, since they have been changed

Crtl + C will get you in and out of the plane
To move your viewpoint in the plane
Shift+E raises
Shift+Q lowers
Shift+W goes closer to Panel
Shift+S Goes away from Panel
Shift+D moves closer to copilot seat
Shift+A moves away from copilot seat

You can save custom camera views (four max I think?) push the shift key plus the F5 through the F8 keys and then go to those view using the Shift F1 through F4 keys. In 2020 it was Crtl+Alt+ the number keys1-9 to assign and Alt+number key to go to them.

Alt+Enter goes in and out of window and full screen mode.

Anyone able to configure tobii eye tracker, shows in controls and it picks up some off my movements but obviously needs proper configuring but I can't find a similar control config screen like I did in 2020 where you can setup the specifics.

That number next to the assigned control represents the number of conflicts that control has. I found that I had to delete the conflicts in order to get my preference for it to work. In the control settings menu hit the out box to copy the conflict to the clipboard and then hit the trash button.

Is it there any way to delete all controller assignments, so that I can start again from scratch?

No. When I tried go to settings, always CTD. It was same in Alpha BTW.

Thanks! Sadly Ctrl+C doesn't work for me and I can't find any action where it is bound to. What is the keyboard action called?

No, it's Shift + C 😉

So we’ve gone from 10 saveable custom camera views to 4?

As far as I can see, however there are like 10 instrument view options in addition
TOGGLE INSTRUMENT VIEW 1   (goes 1-10) 

Not sure how to program those views but SHIFT+(number) brings you to that view.

As for the other views they are called

LOAD CUSTOM CAMERA 1 (2,3,4) F1-F4 KEYS
SAVE CUSTOM CAMERA 1 (2,3,4) F5-F8 KEYS
