Understanding the 2024 UI for controls

Featured Replies

I've got all my planes (all 2 of them) setup so I dont need help in that, but instead more about understanding the three different categories and their purpose.

General Controls

Airplane Controls

Specific (insert whatever plane you are currently using) Controls

I like that you can turn off controllers and that the plane now remembers assignments for specific planes so you no longer have to do that after switching planes but exactly what is the streamlined process that they were thinking on this? What are the purposes of these three categories? I know you can rename and duplicate stuff but I am lost at what a good flow to assign them is mainly because when I want to assign something specific to an airplane and rename it I can't while at the same time dont understand the differences between general controls and airplane controls.

I basically created two profiles:
A) Single Engine
B) Twin Engine

Of those I just removed some of the unneeded assignments that came preprogramed with the Alpha and Bravo Honeycombs. I use Axis and Ohs for all  the specific stuff for each plane so really all my controls are general with the exception of Throttle, Prop, Mix.

Anyone know a link or have concluded the best way to about assigning controls without creating a whole bunch of random profiles or messing up another planes profile in doing so?
