Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
I need a little help setting up the thrust reversers on my saitek throttle quadrant. As near as I can tell, FSX:SE triggers them if you hold down F2 and trigger the Rapidly Reduce Throttle command for a second or two. I've tried assigning that command to the reversers on my quadrant in the Sim's control configs, but the reversers don't open when I push the throttle levers all the way down. I looked at setting them up in SPAD, but I'm utterly lost.

Re: Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
What exactly did you assign to it?
Re: Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
sorry, the actual command in FSX is listed as "Throttle (decrease quickly)." I tried to assign it to button 8 (middle reverser) on my quadrant.

Re: Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
that worked, thanks. That also answer's my next question, which was how to set each throttle up individually

I have the CH throttle quadrant. I want to configure the middle two levers as throttle1 and throttle2 and if they move back past the detent activate the reverse thrusters, and then come out of reverse thrust when pushed forward into the detent position.
What is the best way to achieve that with spad.next?.

Re: Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
What is the behaviour function of the CH when you go into that location?? is it just Axis or is it a button? This will probably have an effect on the response.

It's an axis.lesoreilly wrote: ↑27 Aug 2018, 19:59What is the behaviour function of the CH when you go into that location?? is it just Axis or is it a button? This will probably have an effect on the response.

Re: Saitek throttle quadrant reversers
Have you tried the option for a Throttle with Reverser in the Standard Axis assignments?

No, is that in P3D ?. I am on V4.lesoreilly wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 19:52Have you tried the option for a Throttle with Reverser in the Standard Axis assignments?
Or is it an option in SPAD.next?.
