Now that you said it, I remember having tried the throttle decr small, but it was still too fast to my taste. Does the ButtonRepeat function work with the throttle decr small too ? Or only if I assign a key repeat ? Thanks

Hello Pete, I'm successfully using FSUIPC to control entirely my saitek pro flight yoke + throttle quadrants... As you may know, there is no reverse zone on the TQ, when you pull back the throttle it's like pressing a button... so I'm using the "control to repeat while held" function in order to mimic a repetition of rpessing the F2 key. Which works perfectly. However, I find that the reverse is too fast, as if the repetition of the F2 key was too fast, is there a way I could slow it down ? Is there a parameter for the "control to repeat while held" function that could act on the speed of the repetition ? Thanks Deniz

I get the same behaviour as John. I have 2 TQ and if you calibrate them in fsuipc you get something like 16384 value for the max thrust (lever all the way up), to something like -16384 for the idle (throttle on 0), but the value doesn't change if I go under the idle thrust, in the red area (it is still -16384 if I go all the way down). That's why I have to use the button down under to get reverse. I would have preferred a "real" reverse zone as you describe. If I understand well, you get a different value at idle than -16384, and get this -16384 value only way under, in the red area ? Can you post an extract of your fsuipc.ini file please (located in the fs9/modules folder) ? The [JoystickCalibration] part would be very useful :) By the way Pete helped me fine tune the reverse parameter for these buttons here : viewtopic.php?f=54&t=68817&p=427941#p427941 Now I am able to get only 1/2 reverse thrust power without editing the aircraft performance file... Very helpful :)

Thank you Pete that did the trick Now I will check and read the guide about the conditional programming, to see if I can use something about it.

Hello Pete ! I have a problem assigning thrust reverse with the saitek pro flight throttle. As you may already know, reverse on this quadrant isn't part of the throttle axis, but simply a button toggle. That is, below reverse, it is the same as a "push and maintain button" action I use the dreamfleet 727 and managed to configure separate reverse thrust using the FSUIPC command (FSUIPC direct) "throttle 1 dec", "throttle 2 dec", "throttle 3 dec", and ticking the "repeat" box. That works fine but it is giving me full reverse thrust 1 second after going into reverse, and the airplane stops quite quickly. My question is : is there a way to get only partial reverse thrust per engine ? For example, only half reverse power ? I tried using the command "throttle x set" instead of "throttle x dec", and putting a -2000 value parameter for example (because as I understood it, reverse thrust is going from 0 to -4096...) but when I do this I get no reverse at all. I also tried with various parameters (,-1000, -13000, -20000, etc...) but to no avail. I'm quite sure I'm doing something wrong here but I'm stuck, I don't manage to see where the problem lies.
