I find it ironic that you're "quite willing to grind on about this permanently" but you can't be bothered to do a little leg work and go to your account at Aerosoft or SimMarket and download the update.

 

I am able to throw that back at you with interest.

 

If you'd bother to read this thread properly, which you haven't, you'll find that:

 

1) Before my first post here, I had looked for a link to the update or instructions on how to find it on:

 

  • this Avsim forum
  • the Aerosoft English forum
  • the Aerosoft English home page
  • the Aerosoft AXE product page
  • the AXE product group on the start menu
  • that at the time I looked, i.e. shortly after the official announcement was re-posted here, there was no information on where to find the update or how to apply it on any of those sources.
  • it's not normally necessary to do all that to find an update
  • it's only the RTFM brigade, of which you appear to a paid-up member, that jumped to the conclusion I hadn't done this before posting

 

2) That certain information that was on the equivalent German Aerosoft pages has only recently appeared on the English pages, which explains why I couldn't find what I was looking for.

 

Still, you're entitled to a half formed opinion I expect, you at least clearly think you are.

Certainly you must have bigger fish to fry? No?

 

 

Check the post right above yours (#70):

What happened to AVSIM

You need to set the throttles up via FSUIPC. Mine work fine with this....

 

(follow this link, midway down in the very first post FINN gives step by step instructions)

 

http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/40453-how-to-setup-hardware-throttles-for-airbus-x/

Not possible. I have registered FSUIPC latest version. Check aircraft specific profile, then yes, type a name for the profile, and rescan. Set send to FSX normal axis and select Axis Thorttle 1. In FSX menu no axis assigned. But Thorttle doesn't work good in AXE...

 

And if after following those instructions, you find that your throttle axis is reversed, and you have to invert it without using FSUIPC (because you can't calibrate in FSUIPC), here's how to do it. Not everyone has this issue, but I did, and had to get some help from Pete Dowson to sort it out.

No, those would be:

  • the RTFM brigade who appoint themselves to decide whether others have made sufficient efforts to find stuff without first making sufficient efforts themselves to establish the facts
  • those that butt into other people's conversations uninvited and 
  • those who make pointless comments to re-awake otherwise dead conversations. 

Category 3 is a new one with just one member so far.

It's admittedly very difficult to get these autothrottle setups working via FSUIPC.  IIRC, there have been some similar challenges with the PMDG 777.

 

One thing to check if you haven't already - have you made sure that there's no throttle calibration going on in FSUIPC?  There's an additional step to the process.  The first step is what you described - assign the axes, select "send to FSX as normal axis."  Then, step two, go to the joystick calibration tab and page through to your throttle axes.  For each of them, hit "reset" and make sure the box for each throttle reads "Axis not processed," and that there are no in or out values except on the far left of the box.  This is totally counter to what you'd normally do in FSUIPC, but the goal here is to send the axis through to FSX without any kind of calibration information.  If FSUIPC calibration is present, the throttles will be locked.  

 

Oh, one other thing to check - I apologize if this is too basic, but it caught me out.  Do you have the Airbus in a ready-to-taxi state?  The Airbus throttle is locked during earlier preflight stages - I forget if it kicks in after or before engine start (perhaps a more experienced Airbus hand can advise), but you have to make sure the aircraft systems are fully functional.  In cold and dark, they won't be.

 

Can you be more specific about what's not working with your throttle?  Is it not moving at all, or is it moving but in the wrong direction?  Both are solvable but you have to solve them in stages.

 

Final point for this round - Pete Dowson (FSUIPC developer) is enormously helpful - you can contact him on his support forum at Simflight.com.  I didn't find Aerosoft's support as helpful on this issue, but your mileage may vary

 

Hope this gives you a start.

I uninstall FSUIPC and reinstall it, and now it doen't recognize my axes! :(

 

It has been working like a charm for months... FSX and Windows recognizes it normally

Does it fail to recognize your axes in all aircraft, or just in the Airbus?

Failed with all, but now runnig...it seems to lose moments. AXE finally is a setup killer addon... with my PMDG planes always work very well!

 

Now working with all planes but when select AXE and enter FSUIPC do not recognize

Sounds like there might be some issues with your FSUIPC.ini (in addition to the basic challenges of getting it to work with the Airbus).

 

At minimum I'd suggest deleting your Airbus profile from the FSUIPC.ini and creating a new one.

 

Beyond that, I really recommend checking with Pete Dowson at Simflight.com.  He's extremely helpful.

 

Let us know how you're doing with it.

Now working with AXE but i need to make several force in my G940 Thorttle to move back to idle..

Maybe a dumb question, but is the AXE auto-throttle messing with you? Throttle has a mind of it's own when auto-throttle is engaged.

My experience has been that if you pull it back from the Climb detent, it should move pretty easily.  Still sounds to me like there's an issue either with the FSUIPC.ini, or the way the Airbus is reading the axis.

Can be an issue with my G940 joystick? In FSUIPC my 940 throttle goes from the -16300 values from 16300. Ok when I move back the joystick throttle to back idle FSUIPC reads 0, bat if I force the joystick more to back, reads -16300. You understand?

 

So the entire joystick movement goes from 0 to 16300 and only less than a millimetre for the range of 0 to -16300... It's strange. It seems to be the 940.
