Good Morning,
I've had my Saitek throttle quadrant set up for reverse thrust using FSUIPC for years without any problems. Yesterday on my landing roll I pulled the throttle lever to reverse and the reversers would not not engage on the PMDG 777-300ER. Today I've clean loaded the PMDG 737, 747, and 777 and the reverse thrust is still not working on any aircraft. I have attempted to re-assign the reverse thrust as per the manual and I'm still getting no reverse thrust engagement. My setup:
Buttons + Switches tab
Joy# 2 20 Btn#
Select for FS control ticked
Control sent when button pressed:
"Throttle Decr"
Parameter 0
Control to repeat while held ticket
Control sent when button released:
"Throttle Cut"
Parameter 0
This setup has worked for me for the past few years. I have tried both profile specific and non profile specific and multiple different PMDG aircraft with nil result. I have attempted to use other buttons to assign reverse thrust with nil result. I have spoilers and flaps set with the other two levers which are working fine, as are my other assigned buttons on the quadrant. The yoke, buttons on the yoke and rudder pedals are all working as normal. I have recently assigned profile specific TOGA, auto throttle disarm and autopilot disconnect for the three aircraft mentioned, but the reverse thrust has worked fine since assigning the new buttons. I have since deleted the new assignments while troubleshooting but still getting no auto throttle engagement. Pressing "F2" will engage the auto throttle as normal on each aircraft.
I am using version 5.121b of FSUIPC with P3Dv4.5 and no crashes have been noted,

My version of FSUIPC is paid and registered and the aircraft I fly regularly are the PMDG 737, 747 and 777. I have located the .ini file and if you require it I can send it through. If you need any more information I can attempt to provide it.
Best regards,
Mark
