CH Eclipse Yoke preliminary notes
MFS2024 recognizes my CH Eclipse Yoke and sets some defaults for it.

With the yoke connected, was initially experiencing a problem with camera/POV constantly jittering between "cockpit" and "chase".

Went into
Settings > Controls > CH Eclipse Yoke > Camera > Camera Mode Switches
and determined that COCKPIT/EXTERNAL VIEW MODE
was defaulted to "Joystick Button 26"
which is third position of the three position switch on the front center of the yoke.
Opted to delete/empty it. Will instead accomplish this via a keyboard key.
This appears to have solved the problem.
The underlying problem may be with the switch, as the switch's three lights and the three lighted buttons below it quit lighting up shortly after I first received and began using the yoke. Other than that, I haven't had issues with the yoke.
