Helicopter control mapping suggestions

Hi all. I am new to helicopter flying in MSFS 2024 and I have a question regarding control mappings. I have an older CH Flight Yoke that works ok for the cyclic stick and a CH rudder pedal that does great for the tail rotor. My dilemma is that the CH yoke has 3 controls on top that are normally used in a plane for throttle, propeller and mixture. I mapped the throttle lever to the collective axis (which gives me 0 - 100) but for hovering and landing you need very fine adjustments which you can’t map because the collective synchs with the lever exactly. You can’t map a trim button. What do others generally do to map the collective so they have both large and fine control?
