Split-axis tail rotor control was removed from MFS24

Version: 1.1.9.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Blocker

Marketplace package name: H225

Context: HPG Helicopters in flight, xbox controller with analog triggers

Similar MSFS 2020 issue: No

Bug description:
RUDDER AXIS LEFT and RUDDER AXIS RIGHT are necessary for helicopters to have fluid yaw control but they have been removed from the controls selection.

Repro steps:

  1. Load H145/H160 or H225
  2. Use an Xbox controller, attempt to map the split-rudder to the analog trigger axis (both).

Expected: RUDDER AXIS LEFT and RUDDER AXIS RIGHT are available for binding
Actual: These axis are not selectable from a helicopter.

I think we also need these events for Helicopter scope so Xbox controller works well.

Showing that helicopter doesn’t have RUDDER AXIS RIGHT and RUDDER AXIS LEFT options:

Showing that they aren’t under TAIL ROTOR somehow, but this would be a compatibility issue even if it was here:

Showing that the airplane scope has these options:

The axis bindings are available now in 1.2.7.0. I have not fully tested but this should work now. :slight_smile:
