Upon release of the highly anticipated PMDG 777, I had also received my WinWing FCU just days before. I did not expect it to work with a Boeing of course, but I figured out how to make my own configuration using Mobiflight, with the help of some people in the discord server. I have binded every button and push-pull motion, with some changes to accomodate the MCP. I have not extensively tested it in and out, but I feel as though it should work as planned. If there are any bugs or issues please let me know in the comments.
Note: Negative V-Speeds will not be seen currently. This is due to the community not having the dataref for it yet, like we do with the 737. So for now, nothing can be done about it until PMDG is able to give us the appropriate offset code. Also, to clear up some confusion, a paid FSUIPC version is not required for this to function, I would suggest having the free one open in the background though, but no issues for me so far without the paid version.
Installation:
1. Download MobiFlight Connector (must be the latest version) : https://www.mobiflight.com/en/download.html
2. Simply download the zip file here, then in the MobiFlight Connector open the .mcc file.
3. You will see a message pop-up, which is where you firstly click on the WINWING FCU at the top then select the WINWING FCU again in the dropdown box under it, then click Assign and Ok. (see gif on post)
4. Click save in the top left, and press Run before you load into the aicraft.
Key Features:
- SimAppPro not necessary to run BUT ensure you update the Firmware of the FCU first.
- Backlights and LCD/LED's will be off until power is introduced to the aircraft.
- Replace clicking the screw for TO/GA or GA, and just press the SPD/MACH button on the FCU.
- HDG TRK / VS FPA button toggles both FDs.
- METRIC ALT = MTRS
- HDG Push = LNAV / HDG Pull = HDG Sel
- VS Pull = VS SEL / VS Push = Altitude HOLD
- ALT Push = Push ALT Knob / ALT Pull = FLCH
- SPD Push = VNAV / SPD Pull = Push SPD Knob
- A/THR = Arm both A/T
- AP1 = Engage A/P (both AP lights will turn on)
Known Issues:
Please let me know if there are any issues, and I will try my best to fix them promptly. It is my first time doing anything like this, so please understand that.

on a side now, i'm trying to add my own additional controls, and when doing the Baro Increase and decrease, it says
"Requires also setting output timer handler "PMDG B777 Baro Timer Handler" preset"
do you know what this means? I'm assuming it has to do with how those knobs don't "rotate" but rather return to center? but i don't know what to do with that.
