FSX/FSX-SE? FSX Throttle Problem

[StephenD 0]

I found a significant problem with FSX that should be easily fixed. I’m at the runway(ready for takeoff), throttle is 0%, slider is all the way back. I move the slider about 1/8th inch forward and the throttle jumps up to 30% and the slider can’t bring the throttle back to 0%. I believe this is the case for all FSX default aircraft - F/A-18, Cessna C172SP, DC-3, Learjet 45. I can’t control airspeed to land. Has anyone heard of or noticed this problem? 🤔

 

My Extreme 3D Pro slider zeros the throttle for P3D (F-22 Raptor and F35A Lightning II).

Welcome to the AVSIM forums!  Have you calibrated your joystick using the calibration tool inside the sim?  Yes, I saw what you attempted with the tags and I would recommend not doing that again😉

I got a Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle. It goes back to 1% not 0% but better than 30% for the Extreme 3D Pro slider. It’s a start.

Same here. Minimum 1% with the T16000M. P3D 0% 🙂 

AFAIR this problem exists since day 1.

Get Spad.Next --- then you can configure the ranges so that just before the end stop is your Idle and at the other end Full....

Thousands of other reasons to have Spad.Next for controller bindings but this will just deal with all of these problems.
