I am having an issue with one of my throttle quadrants. The one that is connected to the yoke operates just fine, the second one however does not. The first two throttles will only travel about 3/4 of the way on FSX, when I have the throttle all the way down (even to the reverse thrust button) the throttle will only come down to about 3/4 of the way down, leaving the engine to stand at high RPMs. The last axis farthest to the right operates fine, just the first two axis. I have installed the newest drivers and have calibrated them and still nothing.

i7 950 OC 4ghz - GTX 570 Superclocked - X58 Sabertooth - 1 TB HD - 12gb RAM - Saitek Flight yoke, throttle quadrants, rudder pedals.

Do you have them both connected to the yoke, or is one to a different USB port (on your pc or a hub)? I know a few folks that had similar problems that were resolved by plugging the second quad into a different USB that isn't on the yoke, or to buy the optional power adapter for the yoke. Not sure if this applies to your situation or not as you didn't specify where the second quad is plugged in, so I just thought I would throw this out there for you to try if you haven't already.Also, does the second quad test ok in the control panel's Game Controllers applet? Just to make sure Windows is seeing it and using it properly, and that there isn't a problem with the quad itself.Good luck, hope you get this sorted!-George

Happy Flying!

Make sure the sensitivity and deadzones in FSX/FS9 setup are set correctly. If you use "Simple" mode they don't like to all match. I think the Low Sens / Hi Dead is default for the first two (because they come default as "Aileron/Elevator") and full sens / no dead for the third (because it comes default as Throttle)
