'Speed Brake - Out (Hold)' command does not close when released.

[Snacko]

Is the command 'Speed Brake - Out (Hold)' supposed to close the speed brakes when you release the key/button?  It doesn't work for me.

No, I think it is supposed to extend the speed brake whilst you are holding down the button and stop in position when you release it. In opposite to open fully on one click. But your guess is as good as mine.

That's how I've got mine setup. The "Back" on my throttle for the speed brake (It's the Winwing Orion, mimicking the Hornet grips) is a momentary switch, where if you aren't holding it, it will pop back to the middle position, allowing you to just put it out as much as you want and then stop. Then to pull it back in, I've got to flip the switch to the forward position, which locks into place, so I don't have to worry about not holding it long enough and accidentally leaving speed brakes out.

The switch on the throttle is a 3-way switch where the afft position (out, extend) is springloaded to return back to center (stop).
The bind mimics that behavior.
