Think you`ll need to hold the F2 key down while reversing, otherwise It`ll go to idle reverse.Can also map it to a button on the yoke if you have it, if I remember correctly it`s the retard throttle fully (or somesuch) in the FS key mapping you need to use. Just remember to pull the throttle all the way back before engaging reverse.Cheers,Kjell.

KjellAs long as you don't touch your joystick throttle you don't need to hold down F2. One press on F2 will give you idle reverse thrust which is what I think is commonly used (or there about) due to noise abatement rules.CHeers,
