October 16, 201312 yr Does anyone else have a problem when sitting at the gate with engines idling, the plane is crawling forward. When I press f1 over and over, the RPM's drop then I stop moving. After I stop hitting F1, the RPM's come back up , and I start moving again. This happens even when I have parking brake set. Is there something in a config. file that I can change? Thanks for help.

October 16, 201312 yr Author I will give that a try. My cfk. file shows min_ throttle_limit = -0.3719 Does this control the idle speed? I will will re-calibrate first. Thanks for suggestion.
October 16, 201312 yr Author Follow up. I re-calibrated joystick, and got idle down to 29.0. Better, but still creeping forward.
October 17, 201312 yr Unplug your joystick, hit F1. That should isolate whether it's your hardware or not. Are you talking about flight idle? Flight idle is higher than ground idle. He said he was at the gate, so it isn't a flight idle problem.
