I would say prop pitch you will want to use on another analog control of some sort. I personally use a slider for this. For the same reasons above, you want as much sensitivity as possible, but its not as necessary.

Thanks, however I really only have the two rotaries available to me, and they are on my throttle. My stick, and my throttle as well, have several buttons available to me.
I guess in the early stages by not using CEM, probably not too big a deal as I understand those items will be handled auto for me - at some point though once I get truly comfortable , I am sure I will want to switch to using CEM.

Yeah I am sure once I get everything programmed into a file and loaded into my setup, there will be some things I will want to change. I am trying though to plan this out as good as I can to give me a good start with this.

Thanks for the other tips as well, much appreciated!
