problems with saitek throttle quadrants

[briansommers 74]

I can't seem to assign reverse prop/feather with my saiteks.. all the other planes work fine. I'm going through a registered version of fsuipc

 

any tricks to this? or something else I'm not doing correctly?

Look for this thread,

Full feather possible?

 

and read the last comment by dissy, it's just what you need.

Brian,

I had also some time ago the Saitek TQ and in these times I assigned via FSUIPC the "buttons" for the Propfeathers (the reverse region is described by a button-press with Saitek TQs) with "decrease prop 1" / "decrease prop 2" fs functions and check "buttons repeat while held" for both ... just out of recalling but it should work like this!

 

Same works with the Thrustreverse (decrease thrust 1/ 2)!

For reverse on the throttle axis on Turbo-props, I have the throttle axis "Button" (the button press caused by moving the axis below the detent) set to "Throttle X decr", and the release button action set to "Throttle X cut" - where "X" is obviously throttle 1, 2... Seems to work fairly well.
