reporting this bug to DCS-BIOS might be a better idea, i am not sure what we can do about it.

It's more for awareness, i've logged a fault with DCS-BIOS aswell. I spent a long time working out it wan't working, might save someone some time if they are trying to achieve the same thing.

I'll keep fault finding and report findings here and on DCS-BIOS.

Any news on this? I have encountered the same bug and can add some information. i feel it is an issue with the communication between the plane in dcs world and dcs bios. The values in dcs bios change when the switches are activated in game. but clicking the toggle button in dcs bios for the controls does not activate them in game.
Hope that makes sense and helps.

DCS-BIOS Version: v0.10.0+64

update.
was wiring up another panel this one being the afcs panel. and same issue. dcs bios cant seem to execute 98 or 99% of the commands.
