Is it possible to CZ (cursor zero) using hotas?

[sirrah]

Is there a way to CZ without letting go of the throttle and stick?

I'm currently only aware of the "CZ" OSB on the TGP and FCR mfd's (hehe, gotta love all the abbreviations ), but I notice I have to do this a lot. So, if there's a way to do this with HOTAS, I'd really like to know how

Courtesy of the official manual. When TGP is SOI'd and in INR mode (Not in Point/Area track), TMS aft will command CZ. This is only for the TGP.

Yeah, sorry I should've mentioned I found that indeed.

So, when no tgp is loaded, "manual" mfd manipulation is always required for CZ?

No worries. You will need to manually press the MFD CZ button in order to CZ with other sensors.

I bound that MFD OSB to a button on my throttle.

When viewing the HSD, I'm pretty sure that TMS down 2x short will cursor zero.  This is necessary to adjust for / fix the offset that occurs to steerpoints after manipulating the TGP.
