August 9, 201411 yr I was looking in FSUIPC for a way of setting up reverse thrust since I've got an extra throttle control. Is there another way to set it up?
August 10, 201411 yr As they often say, Google is your friend. Here's a couple of links to help you. I encourage you to search the FSUIPC forum for this topic. Basically you calibrate the mid point of your throttle lever to 0 and the bottom stop (which would be idle on a recip aircraft) to a negative value. You set a little null zone in the middle between idle and reverse so that everytime you retard the throttle (or power lever in a TP) it doesn't jump suddenly into reverse. http://forum.simflight.com/topic/69532-engine-reverse-thrust/ http://forum.simflight.com/topic/74211-setup-reverse-thrust-with-thrustmaster-hotas-x/ http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/71249-fsuipc-setup-to-have-reverse-thrust-with-the-otter/ I have done it on several of my TP aircraft but with my Hotas X I lose a lot of travel in the power lever. It makes fine power adjustments tough to nail accurately. Another option is to setup a button press on your flight controls thru FSUIPC. I believe the command is "Throttle Dec" and check the "repeat if held" box. http://forum.avsim.net/topic/381645-fsuipc-reverse-for-a-button/ http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/archive/index.php/t-237809.html
