How configurate throttel and reverses

Featured Replies

Hi. I have saitek throttel since 10 years. I don't know if it doesnt works fine because the throttel moves constantly.  It is very difficult to configurate.  I do it with fsuipc. 

Some idea? Regards 

First try moving the levers a few times, over their full range, and then calibrate them. If this does not work, i'm afraid it's bad news.

If it has been in use for 10 years the problem is probably down to wear in the potentiometers at the base of the throttle levers. It's a common problem. They are not easily replaceable, because spares are not available.

Hi. What I do is go to axis asignation.  There're 3 posibilities (boxes to checo,).  I am not in front of my SIM but I remenber before I choose second option (fsuipc...).

Last time I choose first box because I think is more stable. 

Then I choose for each axis throttel number 1..2...3...4

And go to axis calibration,  3 page , en engines and first step is reload all asignaments,  then set 4 engines,  I go up 4 axis and set max, I go down the axis 3/4 and set idle,  and I go down until the bottom and set reverses.

I don't know if it is the right way.

Regards. 

And I pre bought Honeycomb throttel that arrives in summer. 

If the problem is still there after calibration, then it is likely the throttles are wearing out. Saitek/Logitech used poor quality components in the throttles, which do not last for very long. Many users have reported problems like yours after a few years of use.  I hope the Honeycomb unit will be better.
