  1. And yes it has been noted how long I’ve been on this problem at home 😂
  2. Thank you John. Will definitely try that. I’ll get to the bottom of it. Just have to find the time in between chores 😬
  3. John will try all of that. You’ve been so helpful. Thank you. I’ll take it from here re the trouble shooting. If I find the cause will let you know for future reference. regards Ryan
  4. So if I were to start a flight now, it would all automatically be in working order. I’m currently using QW 787-9. Yes two engine but all is good. No issues with two engine. That includes PMDG 777 and 737. so I’ve so far eliminated faulty saitek products other than a slightly dodgy axis on the throttle quadrant
  5. Yes that is absolutely correct. And I tried assigning to the throttles individually too using all for from the yoke and throttle quadrant. Same thing happens. What do you mean by "Throttle 2"? For the 747, you have the following throttle assignment on axes: Looks like these are assigned to the quadrant attached to your yoke, and as you have an exes assigned to both throttle2 and throttle 3. Are you saying that this assignment continues to work for throttle 3 but not for throttle 2? When this occurs, if you go into the axes assignment tab. do you see these assignments when you move the throttle? You also have the following throttle decrement control assigned to buttons: Here you have a repeat throttle 2 decrement assignment on a button on your 2nd throttle quadrant. Also strange as nothing for engines 1 and 4. As you are controlling engines 1 and 4 on one axes, and 2 and 3 on another, I would have thought the decrement controls for 1 and 4 should also be on one button, and for 2 and 3 on another. You have also assigned with 'Direct to FSUIPC calibration' but have not calibrated your throttles. You should always calibrate an axes when assigned in this way. As for this. I had them calibrated. Then reset. I’ve tried everything. When I start the flight and during cruise, all works absolutely fine. it’s the decent and landing that something is changing the assignments and settings! I cannot figure out what it is. The only other possible cause could be the pause at TOD from FSHUD. But I’ve turned all the sleep modes off. I can’t figure out how the assignments are changing between a pause and me Leaving the sim for a period of time and when I return for decent, boom it all goes mad ryan
  6. Ok this time Throttle 2 just stops working completely on approach. When landing i select reversers. All idle except throttle 2. It just want to pull all the way back in to reverse. This is only an issue on the PMDG 747. No issues with any other aircraft FSUIPC6.JoyScan.csv FSUIPC6.ini
  7. John, Sleep mode was indeed activated, so all USB connections are now deactivated. Will test another flight now. Leave overnight. If it happens again, will follow instructions. Ryan
  8. All noted. The reason was because the fault had reappeared on landing. Same spot every time. So strange. Thanks John
  9. Hi John, Sorry. I'm just uploading again to see if everything looks ok or is it a mess again. Just completed a flight. All was good until landing. Then the throttles went crazy. I had to disconnect both throttles and re attach for them to return to working order. I wonder, could it be a defective throttle quadrant? I'm beginning to suspect it is.

  10. John thank you so much again. And that’s correct as one of the throttles is non USB so can only be connected via the yoke. Will replace the ini and hopefully all will be good. Thank you again for your help
  11. John, thank you so much. Will give this all a go when I get back. Apologies, I thought I had uploaded the ini file. Ryan
  12. New problem. I have Saitek Yoke with throttles and an additional Throttle quadrant. I also have Saitek rudder pedals. Todays flight all running smooth. On decent, FSUIPC has stopped reading the yoke and throttles. I checked the calibration in FSUIPC. Rudder pedals fine, additional throttles fine. Yoke and throttle dead to FSUIPC. I changed USB ports. Nothing. I ran the Saitek properties test. The yoke and throttle are working fine. I am baffled. FSUIPC6.JoyScan.csv FSUIPC6.ini
