| Flaps and Wing Sweep | |
|---|---|
| This forum solution offers a good solution: | |
| Set one lever to control flaps 0-3 for 67, 63, 45 and 25 degree wing sweep and another for flaps 3-6 for 0, 7, 25 and 50 degrees flaps. | |
| But unfortunately the control menu in MSFS 2020 only offers unique slots for flaps 1 to flaps 4, as well as full retract and full extend. | |
| My solution was to assign FLAPS to these 3 settings: | |
| FLAPS UP | Flaps retract |
| FLAPS 1 | |
| FLAPS DOWN | |
