Description
Latest Update - 10th June, 2025 - CLR button fixed. You can now press CLR or hold CLR to return to the map.
Previous Update - 9th June, 2025 - I have consolidated my scripts into a new file 'manicminer_Scripts.xml' and updated this profile to use these scripts. This avoids you having to overwrite the default Scripts file.
---
I recently got a Stream Deck Plus but couldn't find any easy to use profiles that suited GA flying so, with the creator of Axis and Oh's help, I put this profile together. Please note that this is ONLY FOR THE STREAM DECK PLUS with Rotary Dials. This profile works with any aircraft that use default Asobo assignments for the radios and autopilot.
FEATURES
1. I use Custom Cameras bound to the Numpad keys. You can set the camera view buttons to whatever you have bound to your favourite cameras in the Stream Deck software, click on a button and then enter your custom camera shortcut keybind e.g. Numpad 5.
2. The Autopilot page features a 'Click to sync Heading Bug with current direction' on the HDG Rotary Dial.
3. 'Tap to sync HDG Bug with Compass' on the touchscreen above the HDG dial.
4. The faster you spin the HDG Dial, the quicker the Dial moves.
5. 'Tap for 100 or 1000 feet increments' on the touchscreen above the ALT Dial on the Autopilot page.
6. Click the ALT Dial to set Barometer to Local - default keybind is 'b'.
7. The COM/NAV pages show you the IDENT of your tuned NAV beacon e.g. ILS.
8. NAV2 or COM2 are on the next page after NAV1 and COM1.
9. I have included a set of controls for the default Garmin GNS 530. Click the Rotary dials for the cursor, just like in the real unit.
N.B. The ALT dial does not work with the KAP140 Autopilot unit, which does not have a dedicated ALT rotary dial, like its larger glass panel cousins...
HOW TO INSTALL (Updated 9th June, 2025)
1. To install, download the Zip archive and extract it to your Desktop, then double click on the MSFS - GA Easy GNS530.streamDeckProfile file.
This will open the Stream Deck software and ask 'Are you sure you want to install the profile?', click 'Install'.
You can now select the profile in your Stream Deck software.
2. a) Open Axis and Ohs and click 'Scripting' > 'Import Scripts'.
b) Select the included 'manicminer_Scripts.xml' file and click 'Import'.
c) Click the arrow to expand the box and select all three Scripts and click 'Import'.
Be sure to run Axis and Oh's once your flight has loaded to activate the AAO plugin, as well as the Stream Deck software.
The panel will only load fully once your flight has loaded in MSFS and Axis and Ohs is connected to the simulator.
Swipe left and right on the edges of the touch screen to scroll between pages.
REQUIREMENTS
1. You need to install the 'Digital 7' font for the Autopilot displays. This font is available free from DaFont here.(https://www.dafont.com/digital-7.font)
2. You need to have Axis and Oh's and the Elgato Stream Deck Plugin both installed and available from here. (https://www.axisandohs.com/downloads.html)
I hope this brings you some enjoyment and thank you to Lorbi_SI for your help learning how to use the software and coding.

EDIT: It does work now! Although its not a big deal, it doesnt seem like the button on the actual GPS gets pressed in the UI. the CLR function works, but its not physically pressing the button in the plane. No big deal at all... just thought you should know. Thanks

Fervent utilisateur de votre addon, je pose la question d’actualité, pensez vous l’adapter à MSFS2024 ?
C’est évidemment beaucoup de boulot, mais il faut bien dire que cette facilité est devenue addictive….
Si vous le faites évoluer, cela méritera un peu plus qu’un café :)
Bon vols à vous et encore merci pour le travail déjà accompli sous 2020.

Page 2 looks different for me, mine has the TRK in the first left window and HDG is below the TRK- not above.
Those are not working as the they should:
The Autopilot page features a 'Click to sync Heading Bug with current direction' on the HDG Rotary Dial.
3. 'Tap to sync HDG Bug with Compass' on the touchscreen above the HDG dial.
4. The faster you spin the HDG Dial, the quicker the Dial moves.
Any idea?
