Throttles stuck at N1 40%

[Dutch1 24]

When i start engines all is ok , but when i move throttles slightly to taxi they go up to 40% N1 and stay there even when pulling throttles back. I need to hit F1 on the key board to bring them back to idle. I had it working just fine... Not sure what i did to cause this....

 

Thanks, Bob McDuff

It's best to run your hardware through its full range of motion prior to starting the sim (though it'll work even after you start the sim - you just might hear the takeoff config warning when you move the throttles up while in the sim). Depending on your hardware, your null zone may also be counted as "throttled," meaning, if you cut off the bottom 5% of your throttle with null zone, your sim assumes you're at IDLE + 5% of your throttle travel the whole time.

I think i did mess around with the null zone on my throttle axis, so are you saying to put the null zone slider all the way to the right, to the left or somewhere in between...

Depends on your hardware, but setting the null zone closer to zero is what is required in most cases.

Thanks Kyle, got it sorted out, I put my null zone all the way to the left and my sensitivity to the right.

Glad that helped!
