This seems to be the best solution as of right now as I don't know much about Lua so I'll stick with it. Thanks again for your assistance and this inquiry can be considered resolved.

Okay so it has worked by using those options and I do have movement of the throttle. My only issue is how I would be able to move the point where it is at 0. I have detents on my throttle that I use for DCS which work as a reverse thrust for MSFS. It isn't on exact 0 however and lays at 14300 (my range goes from 0% at 16384 to 100% at -16384 so it's inverted). Is there a way to shift this 0 point or set a new center at a specific value?

Hi John and thanks again for the help. I used your tip to use Set Lvar to figure out the range the LVAR accepts. The range is apparently from -1 to 1, where -1 represents a cutoff for the engines, 0 represents idle position, and 1 represents a full 100% throttle application. So the range is indeed -1 to 1. Setting the value to 0.5 will make it stay in the 50% power position. How would I now go from getting my throttle range of 16383 to fit into this range? Many thanks again for the support. Edit: I've seen page 41 of the advanced user guide. I'll have to do some math it seems to figure out so I'll get to doing that.

Hi John and thank you for your response. The LVARs are indeed THROTTLE1_SET and THROTTLE2_SET as those are the two that are used for throttle control and using the regular FS Controls produces no throttle movement. I've also confirmed this by looking in the Discord server pertaining to the aircraft that LVARs are the only way to control the throttles for this aircraft through external means. I am not exactly sure what range the LVARs accept. How might I be able to determine this? I've also gone ahead and updated to the latest version of FSUIPC7.

Hello! I'm having issues with setting up my throttles in the HondaJet that recently came out on May 31st, 2022. The aircraft requires you to use LVARs to assign the throttle through FSUIPC. The normal calibration options do not work for this aircraft. I was attempting to set one of these using two offsets but it was not working as each time I tried to move the throttle, it would just put it to 100% after moving it even slightly and would only idle at the very furthest extent of my throttle. Moving it to any other position other than the furthest extent causes it to put the throttle in the simulator to 100%. The throttles function normally when using the in simulator controls rather than interfacing through FSUIPC. I've assigned A000 for the left throttle and A001 for the right throttle. I attempted to use this forum post as a guideline for myself to understand how to do this as I am quite new to using FSUIPC and don't know how to use it as an advanced user. FSUIPC7.ini FSUIPC7.log List of LVARs I'd really appreciate any help with why this is happening as I can't use FSUIPC to control the throttles in this aircraft.

Here is the ini file. Edit: Inserted correct file this time. FSUIPC7.ini

Yes, the throttle input values were the same and conditions also the same (airport, weather, time, weights) but with throttles assigned in FSUIPC I could not get the same airspeed as if I assigned it directly through the in-game controls. There is also the issue that the automated flight engineer cannot maintain the airspeed indicated in the POH but as soon as I disconnect FSUIPC it would finally speed up to the expected speed. It seems that your solution to rename FSUIPC7.ini and then try again resolved the issue and I am now able to get the same airspeed that I was normally supposed to get so that issue has been resolved at this point, after the creation of the new ini file. Thank you very much for your help in regards to this issue. I'm not sure exactly what was causing the slowdown on the old FSUIPC.ini but if you would like me to attach that I can do so. Once again, thanks!

Hello! I'm having a bit of an issue with my installation of FSUIPC. I'm attempting to use the PMDG DC-6 with FSUIPC by using the "Throttle Axis Set Ex1" for the throttle control. I'm having an issue however with a reduced amount of power when using FSUIPC. When I disconnect FSUIPC from the simulator, my DC-6 will accelerate up to the speeds that are listed in the aircraft's POH. I am also able to get the expected amount of power when using the in-game controls and setting the throttles there. When I set my throttles in FSUIPC and then try to set the power, the manifold pressure, BMEP, and prop RPM are all indicated the same but the airspeed of the aircraft decreases by about 15-20 knots. I'm unsure exactly as to why this is occurring so any help I could get would be greatly appreciated!
