I am trying to give Flight another try. I never gave it much chance before. Anyway, I'm having some issues:-I have the CH throttle quadrant. I can get the throttle to work, but can never get the power over 95%. I tried adjusting the sensitivity in the standard.xml file, but it doesn't seem to accept anything greater than 1. I can adjust it down, but not higher. There is no null zone on this axis either. I have to hit F4 if I really want full throttle. -I just flew a $100 hamburger mission. All was going well until I ran into 68 knot wind gusts. My plane was basically flying sideways. The winds suddenly died down to a normal 8 kts on final approach. Everything was fine at takeoff. Before that the plane was bouncing all over the place too. Severe turbulence maybe? There were no t-storms or anything around. Anyway, I will give Flight credit for one thing. It is very smooth even on my older PC.

If you're throttle doesn't go to full, email the devs at [email protected]. And are you sure you didn't set the weather conditions to one where there's a lot of wind? If you did, and you tried landing at a high altitude airport, you may have had problems. If that's not the case. Send another email or include it in the same email about your throttles.

I wouldn't know how to set the weather? I think I had free flight set to "fair". The wind was fine at takeoff and landing, just in the middle it got crazy for no apparent reason. The airport wasn't that high as I remember. Maybe 2000 feet above sea level (wasn't paying that much attention).

I assume your controllers are properly calibrated, in the CH software?Very strange that you would not get full throttle...Running into that kind of turbulence in the hamburger runs is very strange as well, I have flown like 3 of those jobs and have not seen anything like that at all.

I don't even use the CH software (never needed it). I can give that a try. Doesn't seem like a calibration issue though. All my equipment runs just fine in FS9/FSX/X-Plane. Everything else seems fine (except of course it doesn't recognize the idle detent).

Hm, can't get throttle over 95%... can you get it less than 5%?If you can't get below 5% as well (that must be a real pain in the Stearman), it's likely a null zone problem.The null zone is set by the following line: "<AxNull>0.100000</AxNull>". This line should not exist in any throttle, prop or mixture axis settings.Edit to add: I saw that you said there was no null zone, but check thoroughly to make sure it's not in a different entry in the control file. If it's not in the control file, and you can get 0%, then it probably needs to be calibrated. The CH Control Manager is very good for this. Hook

The problem is I can set the sensitivity less than 1, but not greater than 1. Has anyone else tried setting their sensitivity higher than 1.0? If I recalibrate for Flight, all my other games are going to need reconfigured.

Those numbers are "percentages." You literally cannot go higher than 100% (full range). I have the same CH Yoke and mine has no such problem......which, while not helping you identify your problem at least demonstrates that it should be working properly. How old is your CH Yoke? It's possible that the pots might be dirty and need a squirt of contact cleaner.

I can certainly state adjusting my null zone - increasing a little, and adusting the sensitivity - reducing a little, had no effect on my throttle range being 0-100%.

I can't get above 95%.I can't set the sensitivity in the standard.xml. If I set the sensitivity to higher than 1, it resets. I can go lower, but not higher. I'm looking at the tip I believe you posted here. I can adjust the sensitivity down, but not up. Can anyone confirm this or no? Sorry to get frustrated, but I've calibrated my controller already. I'm sure I can "under" calibrate it, but then it will throw off every other sim. I'm fairly confident it is not the controller. I fly FS9, FSX, and X-plane all the time and have zero issues. It is calibrated just fine in Windows as well.

Tell the FLIGHT team at [email protected]. They may not reply, but at least they get informed.

Considering the controller only goes from 0 to 255, it can't get outside that range. I've "under" calibrated controls before without problems.At least install the CH Control Manager and see what IT says the range is. If it's less than 255 at the maximum, then you may have a calibration problem.You never answered my question about whether the controller would go lower than 5%.Hook

They are going to release the next 5% of your throttle in the next dlc for 3000 MS points! :dance:

Now that's just trolling. :LMAO:

This is just a wild guess, but in the standard.xml file, make sure that<AxScale>1.000000</AxScale>If the above is set to a value less than 1.0, you will not be able to give the aircraft full throttle (and you will not be able to reduce the throttle to 0). For instance, if the value is changed to 0.9500000, your throttle will only go from 5% to 95%
