Can't find reverse thrust on keyboard

Featured Replies

Colour me stupid, but for the life of me I cannot find the reverse thrust on the keyboard. I had it going on my Saitek Cyborg which I used as a throttle alongside my MS FFB2, but my Saitek is gone and I am without reverse thrust. I can't find it anywhere.Thanks.

F2 key
I'm sorry, I didn't mean reduce thrust, but the thrust reversers you use when landing.I fly little props 99.9% of the time so I don't use them much but now I would like to find them.Thanks, though.(Also, I would like to map it to the thrust control on my MS FFB2.)

I think that it is by hitting "shift /" to arm the reverse thrust.. or pull down the throttle view and it is on the left side. Hope that helps.Bob L

F2 reduces thrust and also gives you reverse thrust when you idle after landing, just press it AFTER you pressed F1 to idle. Holding F2 will induce more reverse thrust.

Excellent! It works.You guys are great, thank you. :( (Weird, I've been flying FSX for years and never knew that.)

Shifted / is usually the combo to arm the "spoilers" not the reverse thrust.
