Trouble with the TCA quadrant

Featured Replies

Hello guys from the AVSIM forums! I am new here and this is my first post so I would like to start apologizing if I am not posting it in the correct section.

 

 

I have always flown the fenix on the MSFS 2020 without any troubles... calibrating always worked just fine. Now I've decided to switch to the MSFS 2024 because it is just better than its older brother in my personal opinion...

I can use the throttle in most aircrafts without a problem, but when I installed the Fenix on the new one and started flying, after all the calibrations and testings everything was working fine and as intended. Taxiing, taking-off and setting the A/T worked problem-less until I got to the point of disconnecting the A/T on APPR to land. The lever locks itself into the rev axis and wont go beyond rev idle. So you are only able to go between rev idle and rev max, which both obviously won't work with the plane midair... I was wondering if anyone else has had the same issue or is this a new bug that only happens to the chosen one?

Sounds like you might need to have a play with the setting (can't remember the name atm) on the throttle calibration page, left side of the MCDU that has values in %.  Reduce that number to something like 1% and try again.  Since Idle and Reverse Idle are so close on the TCA, I found I had to reduce that number.

After an exhaustive amount of time I found the solution:

I had set the "enable reverser axis" on the same button as the disengage A/T as I've only found this workaround for some turboprops when trying to use the reverser on short-fields.

After changing it to another key it is now back to normal function, thank you anyways, man. Happy landings!

Glad you got it sorted and welcome to Avsim.  We try and help where we can (most of us anyway).
