throttle position jumping when at idle

Recommended Posts

All of a sudden my NGX throttle levers are jumping half way. I looked further into FSUIPC and i reset my jetmax throttle. but after a few seconds in FSUIPC i noticed the IN / OUT numbers reset to 0 and 86

Hello Vernon,

 

If you are using Saitek throttles the reason for the probleme are most likely the potentiometers. Perhaps they have been dirty or worn out. In my experience there is only one thing to do if there is no guarantee left : buy new ones (preferably of a better quality like PFC).

 

Cheers,

 

Ben

If you move the throttles up just a tad, are the values stable?  You might try using the closest position to the detent that is stable for both for idle.
