Hello all. I have been trying to get reverse thrust working on the saitek throttle. I have gone into controls and looked for the "decrease thrust quickly" and moved my throttle up and down. Now when I am on the ground, and pull my throttle all the way back, I do get into reverse thrust, however just not all the way. I have to wag my throttle back and forth real quickly within the reverse throttle range to get maximum reverse thrust. Any ideas?

Just a thought, is there a 'repeat' slider at the right of the control entry? If so try enabling that.I have mine set up via a registered version of FSUIPC and it works a treat on default and most 3rd party aircraft.

I agree.The red area beneath the throttle axis activates a button. With a registered version of FSUIPC, you can assign that button to "decrease throttle quickly" and check it to repeat while held. It works really well.

HelloHere is how to do it in a registered version of FSuipcPull the throttle back to the switch at the end of its throw and fsuipc will detect itset up the assignments like in the pictureIn this example both levers are set up as for a twin jet but the picture shows engine 1,just do the second lever for engine 2selecting throttle2 dec ect.

Thanks very much!

I set my reverse using the throttles. There is a button setting you can set when you pull the throttles all the way back. Use the "reduce engines quickly" button designation in fsx. Works great for me.CaptMac

I have done this. However, it does not reverse thrust all the way back, just slightly. I have to waggle my throttle up and down within the reverse thrust range to get my reverse thrust at maximum.I don't have a registered version of FSUIPC.

HelloA registered version of FSuipc is the best purchase you can make if you want to really get the best out of your controller setup.The profile system allows you to setup the controllers for each type of aircraft that you fly, the settings are loaded when you load each aircraft.Invaluable if you don't want to be assigning controls all the time when switching between jets , piston props, turbine props ect.So for jets you can use the unused prop and mixture levers for flaps,spoilers gear ect.

Just use profiler and set up your throttle with ranges. It is the only mapping tool to use with a Saitek stick.jja

Ok all, I got it to work by sliding the "repeat" slider all the way to the right.
