Hi, I recently bought the Thrustmaster tca quadrant and so far it works really smooth. Only one problem. Since I started using the quadrant at random times, the flaps and spoilers go to full without me doing anything. Also when that happens, the plane instantly goes to a really low speed like 118 kts. It happens with every plane and I have no idea what triggers it or how to fix it. Any idea what I can do? PS: I only have the throttle and the sidestick, I don’t have the flaps and spoilers add-on.

Hi, yesterday I just got a thrustmaster tca quadrant, but I have some problems with the calibration. 1. As you can see in one of the videos, even if I calibrate the throttle, it just won’t go the max reverse, only to idle reverse. When I calibrate it, I switch the throttle quadrant to max reverse, but in the sim it won’t work whatever I do. 2. When I slowly move the throttles, in the simulator one of them is always higher than the other( this only happens when I’m between the detents) 3. when I try to takeoff, the plane veers to the left, even if I use the rudder, it’s impossible to steer. If you have any solution/suggestion for any problem, it would be very helpful. thanks

Hi, Anyone here tried out using the Thrustmaster Pendular Rudder together with TCA Sidestic and the TCA Quadrant throttle in FS2020? I am currently using the TFRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals and I want to replace them with the TPR for a more realistic experience. Would that be a suitable set up without any compatibility issues? Thankful for advice!

Hello, I'm at the point of installing/connecting my new HOTAS Thrustmaster Warthog. Now i wonder if i need to install some drivers or other installers from Thrustmaster itself before i can use my HOTAS with Linda? Are there some users who can enlighten my at this point? I use it with Win10/64bit and P3Dv4.1

I dont know if this is normal or not but here goes. I notice that I can move the power levers anywhere when I use my mouse but with my twin throttles on the TM Warthog once I move out of Ground Idle The lever flick forward well into Flight Idle. From then they only move in a range from that point to full forward and back. I cannot get to ground idle unless I move the levers with my mouse. I have tested the throttle control under settings and it appears OK. I also made sure nothing else such as pedals, mouse or joystick has any influence over no1 and 2 Throttle axis. Any other twin throttle owners care to share their experience. I have the same issue with the Alabeo C441 as well. Cheers Peter

Flying 737NGX and FSX with typical add ons (see my sig) and thinking of replacing my T.Flight HOTAS Thrustmaster Joy/Throttle with the (pricey) Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Joy/Throttle combo.Question: Are any of you using this device to fly the PDMG 737NGX in FSX? If yes, can you tell me if you're satisfied with the performance of this controller, particularly as regards to control of the airplane both in terms of steering and thrust?I purchased and returned the Saitek pro flight yoke and rudder pedal combo. Let's just say I was dissatisfied with both items from a flight control perspective, not to mention what I regarded as extremely 'iffy' construction and performance characteristics.I looked at the CH yoke/pedals as well, and believe the Thrustmaster setup is a bit more solid from what I've been able to read about (and at like 2x the price, it should be).Also looked at the crazy-expensive precision flight controls offerings. If money were no object, of course I'd just buy a used 737 from one of the airlines. Sadly, I'm a few cockles short of the millions needed for that idea. Or, I could pay 300 grand for the world's most expensive personal flight simulator (according to Guiness Book of World Records).Since none of that is happening, I am asking for feedback about the Thrustmaster. I recognize that it is probably not ideal for a dual-engine commercial Jet versus a true YOKE design, but the magnetic contacts and the idea of a better feel when moving the throttle to full IDLE has intrigued me greatly.Thanks in advance for any feedback. If I'm missing some 'other' choice for yoke/throttle/rudder pedals - please share your thoughts.Finally, is the Warthog able to fully-control all control surfaces of the 737NGX (especially the rudder?)Ciao.

On a future update, would it be possible to assign the Push To Talk button to a button on a sidestick or yoke? I specifically use the Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Sidestick. Sorry if this has been asked before but I did not see a thread about it.

Maybe one for the hardware forum, but I thought I'd try the main one first as it's only happening in MSFS. Probably been there from the start but only noticed it when i glanced at the throttle on screen recently. My TCA Airbus throttle behaves fine except for one instance - when the two throttle levers are sitting at idle, in the cockpit, the left lever is somewhere between 0% and perhaps 7% (that it itself I need to work out a fix for), whilst the right lever will always be around 7-12% higher. At any other setting on the physical throttle, the sim throttles will be matched, i.e. both at 10%, 20% etc. Even in reverse thrust, they match, so it's only at idle there is a problem. I've even used the screwdriver bar used for calibration to link them so that they move together - still the same issue. It doesn't happen in FSX:SE - the throttles move together correctly. The difference doesn't seem to affect my flying noticeably but perhaps I'm just compensating, but ground handling is probably slightly more twitchy than it needs to be, I'd imagine. And with the new floaty/STO characteristics some planes have now developed, I sometimes find my plane veering off course after rotating. Perhaps unconnected, I won't know until I can solve this issue. I've only used the Thrustmaster calibration instructions (moving to different detents and pressing the appropriate buttons). Anything else I should try?

Hello A couple of days ago, I received a Thrustmaster Flight Stick X joystick for my birthday. As I'm also intending to really get into flying onto the IVAO network, I want to set a PTT button on my joystick via TeamSpeak 2. The problem is that TeamSpeak doesn't recognise inputs of my joystick so I can't set a PTT button on my joystick. I'd be grateful for some help on this. Kind regards Pim

It's a pity to spend hours to get a small function right. A button on the Thrustmaster T.16.000 joystick has the number 14 in MSFS. If I want to assign the button for Pilot2ATC as "Sayit" button, the button 13 is displayed. If I program it to Pilot2ATC (Sayit), nothing happens. Sayit is not triggered. Why are the assignments in Pilot2ATC wrong? What is the solution?

Hi all, Yes another Fenix and thrustmaster compatibility questions / issues I'm hoping you guys have the answer too. Purchased Fenix a few months ago, couldn't get the throttles to move in game using my thrustmaster TCA, with all hardware to software functions working perfectly. The I'd move the TCA to the next intention, hear the engines spool up slightly before going back down, but the throttle levers themselves wont move at all only with mouse interaction. I watched countless videos, messed with the calibrations, sensitivities, drivers the lot. I reached out for help from fenix who again told me to re-calibrate etc etc but still nothing. In the end I uninstall FS along with every bit of third party software and started from scratch, today I've re-installed and I'm getting the exact same fault and I'm at a loss with what to do next. I've done; Checked in plane calibration. Checked for no other bindings. Adjusted the sensitivity to what Fenix suggested. Calibrated the TCA with thrustmaster software. All drivers are up to date. No Fenix liverys or modifications in the community folder. Deleted the game and re installed it. Deleted and re installed fenix many times. Took the TCA apart to check for any loose connections, it's all perfect. Any and all suggestions and help is appreciated, please not TCA quadrant works on FBW and all other sim aircraft faultlessly. Regards Rhys
