Hi Dusk, many thanks for the screenshot...................and guess what I have now cracked it. I now know what I was doing wrong, and also have what I think may be a helpful tip for you.

So, what was I doing wrong? Well I bound my Thrustmaster Hotas throttles on throttle axis 1 and throttle axis 2. I then returned to the aircraft to see if the bindings were working..................which they weren't............so hence I thought I had problems. It was because of the erratic movement of the throttles in the aircraft, which was the reason that I did not move to the calibration page on the MCDU. When by chance today, and after your response, I opened the calibration page on the MCDU............and BINGO, the throttle started to behave as they should. So my learning was, bind your axis, and the open the calibration page, calibrate and you are good to go.

Now for my tip - as you have a Hotas throttle - and indeed if you prefer to do it this way. In order to engage reverse thrust, I choose Decrease Throttle in the power management section, sub menu Throttle - and then I lift my two joysticks over the detent, and it allocates buttons 29+30 to this command. Make sure you set it to repetitive (if not already by default)..............and that works perfect for me.

Happy flying and lots of thanks for your help and support.

but reversers still don't work on the INI A320v2 though being calibrated in the EFB

solved. EFB said reverser on same axis. which is correct for my TM Airbus Throttle. I deselected this and re-abled it and now reversers work

Hmm.. for some odd reason, when I try to assign axis in settings, upon moving the throttles (Thrustmaster A320) it registers as "Joystic button" and not an axis....🤪

I needed a couple of attempts before it worked, pull them all the way both ways.

Hehe, yeah been doing that like crazy but the end result is always the same.

 

When I have selection issues I just hit the cog next to the selection and select the right binding in the lefthand column, makes life easier.

Maybe I was just lucky when setting up and looked at the calibration menu before trying the throttle! Anyway may prove useful information to other users.

Thanks for the tip, will play with the suggestion sometime. Currently happy with my setup as I can pull the throttles to ideal and after hitting the button I can push the throttles to the reverser setting I require very easily.

do yourself a favor and click on that little cog wheel next to the throttle axis line to assign the axes manually from that list.
