Hi Matt, I found this. In the MSFS menu, I selected "DECREASE THROTTLE" for the axis "JOYSTICK SLIDER Y-". However, the issue is that when I move that axis, it doesn't go up or down, but rather goes towards maximum reverse. To rectify this, I need to move the thrust levers forward, which isn't realistic. With my limited knowledge, the only solution I can think of is to use FSUIPC and define that axis as a reverser with an additional event. As a programmer, I believe you should find it easy to understand and troubleshoot this for a positive outcome. 747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning.

Do you happen to know if the throttle has a button that fires when you pull the levers up into idle reverse? The Saitek throttles, for example, have a dedicated "button" that is "pressed" when you move the throttles into the reverse detent.

Throttles and reversers only move pots. There are buttons for TOGA and A/T disconnect. Thank you. 747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning.
