ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
It doesn’t seem to be possible to bind VR Controller Thumbstick up/down/left/right separately. In MSFS2020, many of us bound VR Controller thumbstick Up to Increase Cockpit Interaction, and thumbstick down to Decrease Cockpit Interaction.

Same here! I didn’t understand why they remove the possibility to go up and down with thumbstick

I have the same problem.
What I have noticed is that in the standard settings you can see the direction arrow for the stick pointing upwards or downwards. If you try to map the stick according to your wishes, the arrow is always displayed in both directions.

It doesn’t make any sense, surely it’s just a mistake and hopefully a quick fix!

Here is some pics from my 2020 Valve Index controller bindings. It would be great if we can have this in 2024.

Can’t remember if I used “lockable” in 2020. What’s the difference in the lockable and non lockable versions?

I am not sure why I used lockable but wanted to document what is working much better in 2020. For me in how I like to fly in VR with no mouse and VR controllers and voice commands this is a show stopper for me.
