Spoilers not deploying via button

Running a CH setup in FSX:SE, Have spoilers mapped to my CH pro throttle. The mapped button will not deploy the spoilers but the / key will. Seems to be isolated to the F-100 because it works fine in the default FA-18 and also the MV F-86. All controls mapped through FSX.

Can you map it to a slider on your CH? With the push button you will only get full open and full closed. With the slider you can partially open the speed brake.

I'll try mapping it to a slider, though I'd prefer to just have it mapped to a button.

Ok so mapping the spoilers to a slider axis on my stick now allows me to use the spoilers. Is there a reason why a joystick button won't work?

Really not sure why it won't map..... honestly I've always used a slider because I like being able to partial open or close the speed brake. The MILVIZ F-4's are a little different because they have an assignment available to "toggle" the speed brake on that aircraft with a single button input.

I too can not get the spoiler to map to any buttons. I'm using Saitek yoke and throttle quadrant.
