AV Master Switch Does Not Move in Some Planes

Brief description of the issue:
The avionics master switch does not move on some aircraft when I use the mapped switch on my controller or a keybinding. Current aircraft with this issue include the XCub (all variants) and the DV20.
However, it seems that the controller/key binding does do the appropriate action (at least on the DV20, cant tell in the cub), but doesn’t move the switch. If you click the switch it does move, but nothing happens regarding the avionics. Not sure whether this latest update broke it or if it was already broken and I just had not noticed until now.

Are you on the Steam or Microsoft Store version?

It’s the same with C172. Avionics BUS1 doesn’t move the switch into ON position with honeycomb alpha. BUS2 switch is working fine.

I also use the Alpha yoke, but I can control both Bus 1 and 2 independently on the 172. I would check your controller mappings. Make sure one is “Set Avionics Master 1” and the other “Set Avionics Master 2”. That doesn’t work for all aircraft though, so I have a separate profile that uses “Set Avionics Master” instead.

why is this still not fixed? It’s 2023 and I have everything up to date, but I cannot turn on the avionics in any aircraft with a single avionics master such as the DHC2 beaver.

My C-172 Autopilot, Transponder and ADF display would not light up along with the Avionics Master Bus 1 would not engage. Strangely the Auto Pilot would work without the display if you wanted to Navigate without the display on, i.e. would track to the heading bug on the Directional Gyro and hold an altitude. Having said this, I stumbled on the fact that on my Bravo Quadrant, if I turned the right most rocker switch on (up), my Avionics Master Bus 1 Switch turns on along with the display for my Autopilot, Transponder and ADF. Looks like a mapping issue on the Bravo Quadrant. Hope this helps.
