In MSFS 2024, there is a digital binding possible for the altimeter knob, but this seems to work only with steam gauge altimeters, such as the in the Corvalis. With glass altimeters, however, the binding does not turn the barometric pressure knob, as found in planes such as the TBM 930. It would be great to have a binding, both digital and analog/axis possible for the barometric pressure knobs as well, since so many of our setups already have physical knobs available.
Of course, if I am missing it somewhere, someone please feel free to point it out to me as I tried everything I could think of in the control search bar!
Maybe it’s a bug in the TBM30? In the Cessna 172, I can adjust the barometric pressure from my phisical buttons, I binded them and it works as expected…
I’ve tested it in others too. It will adjust steam gauges, such as in the 152, but if a plane has both a steam gauge and a second glass gauge, it won’t adjust the second gauge.
I was seeing the same issue in the Cessna 400. Increase Altimeter bind only adjusts the steam gauge while the g1000 barometric knob adjusts both and I can’t find a bind for that one.
Binding keyboard presses to INCREASE ALTIMETER and DECREASE ALTIMETER works for me in the G1000 version of the C172. But it seems to be hit or miss in other planes.
A lot of these bindings are either buried in B vars, or as part of the AS1000 or AS3000 (G1000/G3000) suites. I’ve found the latter to be the case for most stock, glass-panel aircraft. And yes, it’s annoying when there’s no real consistent standard.
