along with the requirement to re-map my throttle axis controller every time I want to fly this aircraft has parked it in my virtual hangar until these issues get sorted.

You don’t have to do that, simple make a profile for the F-35 in controls. I have a profile for every aircraft I fly, it takes seconds to switch.

I don't normally go to Facebook to look for Developer support, but I did look through the posts on the Indiafoxtecho Facebook page.  I don't see where Dino explains WHY we have to map our throttle to THROTTLE AXIS 1, other than he mentions it is needed for users on Sim Update 7 Beta (which I am running).  All other aircraft work fine having my throttle mapped to the generic THROTTLE AXIS, so I have a hard time calling this a sim issue and not a dev issue.  Unfortunately, the combination of consistent CTDs when flying the F-35 along with the requirement to re-map my throttle axis controller every time I want to fly this aircraft has parked it in my virtual hangar until these issues get sorted.

I seem to recall that helicopters required mapping of individual throttle axes; maybe the F-35 needs to map to a specific throttle axis for vertical flight mode.

You guys are lucky, it won't even load for me before it CTD's.  Nothing, nada, I select Fly and it loads to a black screen then crashes.  

Frustrating but I understand the difficulties of designing modules for flight sims as I've been there done that myself. 

I'd be happy at this point if I could just look at it in the sim lol......

If you're running DX12, try DX11, or try DX12 if you're running DX11 . Just mentioning because I can run Kodiak in DX11, but it crashes in DX12

Had a flight from Hachijō-jima to Heneda without any CTD in the C variant.

Dino has placed a comprehensive FAQ on his Blogspot site: http://indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com
Among the answers is, that the F-35 is not compatible with DX12.

IIRC the F-35 isn't the only third party aircraft affected by this. It's an issue that popped up with the hotfix.

Well that would explain a lot!  Thank you!

 

EDIT:  I can at least look at it in game now!  Still CTD's a few minutes later but we're getting there!

There is 4 different Throttle Axis in MSFS. You need to bind it to throttle 1

When I bind my throttle to throttle axis 1 the F 35 works but all of my other planes #2 engines will not spool up! they are running but will produce power!

Do you the same profile for all aircraft? if so make one for the F-35 and only use that profile for that aircraft. You should have a profile for every aircraft or at least one for types e.g GA.

Bind throttles 1, 2, 3 and 4 to your throttle axis. For 2, 3 and 4, ignore the warning that it's already got a binding and go ahead and validate each. Done for all aircraft!

Thank you again! 

I would be lost without everyone posts and help!

Update 1.0.1 out
There’s also patch notes for the update. They fixed the throttle issue among other things.

Asobo has been able to replicate the issue so maybe it can be addressed in a patch.
