July 29, 20214 yr Hi everyone. I had been using this with the FBW A320 for a while with no issues, until the new update yesterday. Now although the quadrant works in other planes, in the FBW A320 I cannot calibrate the various indents. I am having problems with the separation values... I get either the overlap messages or too narrow gaps between the idents. When I move the quadrant the left lever , the plane lever follows the movements. but when the right lever on its own or both levers are moved together, the plane's lever go crazy. Erratic forward /backword movements. Also the planes levers do not want to go into reverse thrust. They assignment in control panel looks ok. The levers work perfectly in the generic Asobo A320 and the Cessna . I would be grateful for any help from anybody who is familiar with calibrating the throttle via the efb in the flybywire A320. Many thanks in advance. Qas
July 31, 20214 yr @rwy12. You have to go into the tablet's settings--detents--calibrate, on lower right side of the tablet...settings button icon is on the lower left of the tablet. There you can reset the detents. However, since the update, the engine 1 switch does not work, the rudder trim switch and buttons do not work. I never bothered with the gear switch, as I use the Bravo quad's gear lever for that. Things work with the default A320, but not with the FBW.....(I have both the speed brake and flap addons).

July 31, 20214 yr Author Hi Many thanks for the suggestions. I am having problem with the values 'range'. I get the overlap messages when I calibrate in the efb. I need help in how to set the correct values in the edit option on top of each axis. At the moment I am just entering values blindly hoping for good result. I am sure there is logical way . each time I put a value ,say for the flex, the dead zone either becomes too big or too small. The worse case was when the idle reverse started overlapping with flex. Now the toga is overlapping climb.... Initially after the update the levers in the fbw a320 kept randomly moving ...luckily that got sorted when I manually removed all fbw folders on the hard drive and reinstalled. Qas
July 31, 20214 yr @rwy12 - I had to fool around with the range settings to make it work: reverse full - range -1.00 to -0.97, Range value 0.03 on both throttles reverse idle - range -0.72 to -0.62, Range value 0.05 on both throttles idle - range -0.05 to 0.05, Range value 0.05 on both throttles CLB - range 0.86 to 0.9, Range value 0.02 on both throttles FLX - 0.95 to 0.99, Range value 0.02 on both throttles TOGA - 0.99 to 1.00, Range value 0.01 on both throttles It still shows the overlap message between FLEX and TOGA, but my throttles lock into the proper detent gates somehow.....
