Cannot Calibrate Throttle

[cchiozza 106]

Finally gave up on the steam version and went to the Microsoft version. I am running FSUIPC and everything seems to calibrate in both the Sim and on FSUIPC for throttles. On the CRJ my throttle jumps from Idle to full max and I cannot get to stop. Any ideas?

Just to rule it out, did you calibrate the throttle through the CRJ EFBs menu?

Just a long shot...did you assign the throttle with buttons like ‘increase throttle’...’decrease throttle’, or did you assign an axis instead? I ran into a similar issue when I did not assign my joystick as an axis.  I was using ‘elevator up’ and ‘elevator down’ and ‘aileron left’...’aileron right’ or something like that. This resulted in both ailerons and elevator jumping around whenever I touched the assigned buttons.   As I said...a long shot 😊

I suspect quite a few made this mistake, especially newbies. Another good reason why a manual should have been provided.
