Assigning throttle to controller buttons

Featured Replies

Hello PDMG! I'm loving this product beyond of what I could've imagined! well done!!!

Quick question: I don't use an axis for throttle and I have my controller buttons assigned via P3D's own control settings to the increase/decrease (F3/F2). It works in all of the default aircraft (including your own 744/777), but not in the 6.

Am I doing something wrong? Should I open a ticket?  Just so you know: the default assignment via numeric keypad (9 and 3) for controlling throttle are not working either.

Thanks!!!

cheers

Just tried and no issue to use F1to F4 for power control.

Happy flying!

I don't have issues controlling throttle with F1 to F4 keys.

My issue is that the DC-6 throttle control is not working with my current button assignments (joystick and xbox controller both don't work). It's not a configuration issue since these assignments work with other aircraft such as the 777 and 747. Like I said before as an additional finding to my issue: even the numeric keypad throttle controls, which are P3D-default assignment (Num9 and Num3) do not work.

Thanks

Anyone besides me encountering this issue? I find it frustrating having to use the F1 to F4 keys for throttle control :-(

thanks!

I suggest opening a ticket with PMDG since nobody has any ideas
