Saitek X-56 not working in Prepar3D V3

I've now got my Joystick working, I changed the ID on JpyID from #2 to #11, but there's another problem, now my throttle is not working. I tried it in the PMDG 777 and the problem is that when i go fully backwards the throttle in-game goes into idle reverse and i can't get it put of that mode without clicking the reversers. I've got controllers disabled in P3D and the throttles mapped in FSUIPC as throttle 1 and 2, both are calibrated. It does not work in the aerosoft airbus either, so it's not aircraft related it seems.

Thanks in advance

Try mapping in FSUIPC as a NORMAL axis and do NOT send to FSUIPC calibration

Thanks for the fast response vgbaron, I tried turning on the "no reverse zone", but as far as I can see it caused another problem, now that I push my throttle with just the slightest millimeter forward the simulator pushes the throttle to about 50% N1, seems like an easy fix, you got any ideas?

Does it work in default aircraft? Might be something specific to certain aircraft rather than the throttle itself.

 

Puzzling. Try calibrating them in windows and see if they are smooth.
