NGX Throttles

Hi,

 

Can someone please tell me if at max power my throttle should stop here?

 

I have installed other software and do not know if this is interfering.

 

Thanks

What is your power setting on your gauges?  Is it 100%?  If so then you are at full power and the throttles are where they should be.

Hi guys,

 

As requested my N1.

 

Do you think my throttles are working fine and at max?

 

Thanks

They can go higher then that. At max you should see the engines in the red on the EICAS.

 

Check your calibration on the throttle axis.

Check your throttle sensitivity and make sure it is at maximum.

Even when I push F3 they go forward but bounce back, is this still my throttle sensitivity?

Throttle sensitivity is max.

 

This is me right click holding the left power to stay there but as soon as I release it the throttle bounces back.

 

Even if I do this to both levers they bounce back to the position where the right throttle is just now.

Hi,

 

Yes I have tried it with just F3 and the mouse on the throttles, same result.

 

Greg

 

Could someone take a screenshot or video and show me where there throttle goes too?

 

Thanks

My guess would be that your throttles are working correctly and and are not normally set at 105%, hence the red gauge whitch is a warning that you are exceeding the normal operating power.  I would see this power setting used in an emergency only, so it's like your throttles go through a gate to set the 105% and not for normal operations.  You could always check with PMDG direct.

I was thinking that but was unsure, always get paranoid and thinking something is wrong.

 

I've emailed PMDG support aslo. 

 

Thanks

I think that your throttles are responding correctly.  I was sitting on the runway, pressed F4, and took these two shots.

Thanks Mike!

 

Same as me I would say?

 

Feel much better now and the girlfriend was wondering why I was sweating!

 

Was contemplating a full FSX uninstall and reinstall.
