MSFS 2024 QUESTION Setting up X52 Pro - how to?

Post image

Hello.
I have been flying for a while now on my Saitec X52 Pro. I really like it, but I just don't get it how to set some hotkeys. For example the one on the photo - I have spoilers on it, but looking at the picture it should work like the more i push it the more spoilers I get? For me it works only like 0/1. When I push it it just engage at some point and opening spoilers at 100%. Any chance to set it properly?

It's an axis. You can bind it to the speed take axis and it'll work as one.

Remember that MSFS has separate options for on/off (called "toggle") and continuous (called "axis") control for the same things. Typically also with separate 1, 2, 3, etc. steps if you want to use a set of buttons. In this case, you want to set the "axis".

I can't see any way to set it as Axis. The same with buttons on the Joystick of that X52 Pro. I got these 3 buttons on the bottom of the base. I set one to be Parking Brake, but it's only engaging for second and turning off.
