reverse thrust key

[charleslee201 19]

Hi and thank you again, great bird no probleme with the ngx (no freeze )fps in vc 25all the system 100% no bugs at all but how do you reverse thrust with the keyboard ... f2 does nothing and cant see no key mapping for it any one ... thank you quad , 3.00 mhz , 4 gig ddr3. nvidia gt 220 1g

There is a better option that woulkd be you through FSUIPC put an axis on your joystick available to do this function. I use a mixture axis of CH yoke, since I do not need it at a Boeing!

looks good will look in to it can you post more detail reverse thrust on the joystick soundsgood

Hi Charles, Well, look on internet for this option. There are a lot of sites like this: http://forum.simflight.com/topic/57483-fsuipc-to-set-reverse-thrust-new-option/ Enjoy your FlY!

I have to hold F2, for about 3 seconds before anything happens, which is too slow for me...

I have seen a similar thing - F2 not doing much for a few seconds. While in the flare the throttle is at idle, however after touchdown I have to press F1 followed by F2 to get the engines into reverse. It seems to take a couple of seconds to go from the approach idle to the ground idle. I seem to not be able to get it into reverse until it has spooled down.

Not a pilot but isn't that how it should be. what i mean is, when landing the real plane, the pilot would have to put the throttles to idle before engaging reverse thrust. Correct?

Yeah I think a couple of seconds for the spool up is about right from what I have seen on videos and DVDs, I map a button on my Saitek X-52 pro throttle to F2 in FSX, make sure the slider is to the right for multiple presses (if you know what i mean?). Dan.
