Wilco Airbus Vol.1 - Reverse Thrust?

Featured Replies

I'm flying the Wilco/Feelthere Airbus A320, using a CH Flightsim yoke.After landing touchdown, I 'zero' the throttle and use the keyboard numeric pad '3' key to try and get reverse thrust, but it doesn't engage. ('Flicks' on and off very rapidly.)Is there a way to get reverse thrust to work using this yoke?Thanks for any ideas.Toni.

Maybe there's a repeat rate set up in your keyboard configuration. Check the "throttle decrease" (usually F2) command and make sure that it does not get repeated (should be the slider on the right to change the rate to 0 when using the left slider position).

There's no repeat set up on that keyboard config.Thanks for the idea though......Toni.

And a test with press and hold F2 to engage the reversersdid not succeed then? That's the standard key for the reversers and maybe another config of your joystick has some repeat rate defined. Reading "goes on and off" reminds me of such a function.

Pressing and/or holding down F2 seems to do nothing when flying the PIC Airbus - and I've checked that there are no 'repeat' settings in the 'Engine' section of the key assignments (except turning Autothrottle on/off).After touchdown, pressing and holding down the numeric keyboard '3' makes 'REV' flash on and off, and there isn't an option to assign a 'repeat' to this button......Toni.

toni:your yoke is sending a forward thrust message to the game. increase the 'null space' for the throttle lever.--

Thanks ScoobI took a look at the forum but can't find an area for the PIC Airbus (apart from 'Call for Airbus....' which I suspect won't help with this problem.)I've just tried various null-zone settings for the throttle but unfortunately, the problem persists.Toni.
