LVARs

We highly recommend binding switches using their corresponding B:Events instead of LVARs, if you are familiar with the process.

Nearly all switches (unless those with default MSFS Keybinds) can be keybinded to hardware using software such as SPAD.next and LVARs. The LVAR list is too long to fit here, but there are several methods to retrieve LVARs for any 3rd party aircraft. All LVARs on the MH60 are clearly named to make them easy to locate and bind.

If you are inexperienced with finding LVARs, please read the following article by our friends at JustFlight. https://community.justflight.com/topic/5324/lvar-list/2
