Every "Button Assignment" works perfect except Throttle does not function at all. In "Assignments" it shows Z-axis which my Son believes is wrong. His same Logitech Joystick shows "Slider" instead of Z-axis. What in the world could be wrong here? Keyboard f2 and f3 for throttle work fine. Any help will be greatly appreciated as I am a real novice at this great Sim Game {Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004}.

HiThis is a little late reply but...I have the same joystick, and my assignments are:Aileron axis: X AxisElevator axis: Y AxisRudder Axis: Z RotationThrottle axis: SliderSo, select the throttle assignment, press Change Assignment, and move the throttle slider as instructed. If the slider itself is not damaged your assignment should turn from Z-axis to Slider.Hope you have fixed it in the meantime.Elprim
