[Configuring CH throttle quad with PMDG 747]

Thanks a lot Pete but I checked and the sensitivities are already full and the null zones already zero. I had a look at that document CMNOTE02 and it's very interesting but I still haven't found a solution to my reversers on at idle and only 91% max problems yet.

Got any other ideas? Thanks a lot again for the help. Regards, Paul!

[Configuring CH throttle quad with PMDG 747]

Just as an update I have the other two levers set to flaps and spoilers and they are working ok, but I am still trying to get the four engine levers working fully, thanks.

[Configuring CH throttle quad with PMDG 747]

Hi, I am trying to configure my CH throttle quad to my PMDG 747 using FSUIPC v3.53. I am trying to set up the middle four levers in the FSUIPC joysticks -> "multi-engine setup" page but I am having the following problems:

Even though I've set the "max" setting to the max for each lever (about 16,000), when I go full throttle the throttle on the PMDG shows that it's only about 91.9% forward. The second problem I'm having is whenever I idle the throttles, they automatically go into reverse instead of just idling. I have the idle throttle setting set as the furthest point back on each lever (around -16,000 I think), but the reversers still go on when it should be at idle (about -11,000 I think).

If anyone could help solving either of these problems it would be much appreciated! Regards, JTH.

[Assigning gear to a lever?]

I read somewhere on the forum Pete saying it was now possible in the new FSUIPC to assign the gear-up/gear-down action to a lever. I have three free such levers on my CH Yoke and would be interested to assigning one of them to this action but I can find an option to do so anywhere in FSUIPC. I believe I am using the newest version, a registered version 3.53.

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Slope value question]

Pete, apologies for the confusion.

What I was referring to was the unnamed field under the "idle" field. It is just to the left of the slope button and therefore I thought slope was referring to that field. Could you tell me what value I should put in it?

Thanks in advance.

[Slope value question]

Hi everyone, I have a registered version of FSUIPC 3.52 and must say it's a very useful software. I am currently trying to set up my new CH Throttle Quadrant in the Keyboards -> Throttles section of FSUIPC.

I have no problem setting the reverser, idle and max values for each throttle but I am a little confused as to what to set the "slope" value for each throttle to. I have currently each throttle's slope value set to about the same as that throttle's idle value (about -7000 I think). However I would like to know what the slope value should truly be set at.

Thanks in advance for any help on this subject. Regards, JTH.
