Throttle

[150245]

hallo,

I finished my panel more or less and nearly everything is working properly, even the landing lights.

One thing I like to ask. Having adjusted the throttle (2 single poti's) via FSUIPC, these throttles overrules so to say the Autothrust.

I did not had this previously whenever i switched to Autotrust the Speed follows this figures.

I use FS 2002 incl reg. FSUIPC and the software of A320pro

thanks in advance

regards

Do you mean the auto-throttle? If so, this will be because of jitter in the axes -- FSUIPC cannot cure that (though I am looking at implementing some smoothing and filtering in a later version).

If you cannot fix this by using better quality or cleaner pots, the usual way is to define larger idle and dead zones, normally at the extremes, and 'park' the levers there when A/T is engaged.

I did not had this previously whenever i switched to Autotrust the Speed follows this figures.

Well, FSUIPC won't be adding any jitter, that will certainly be from the source.

If you are using one of the add-on panels which does its own A/T implementation, not using FS, then the more probable reason is that the panel is using the regular single throttle control and you are using the two separate ones -- the panel may not be correctly overriding those as it probably is for the single control. Without a fix from the panel authors the only way will be to park the throttles then -- only changes in input will affect things, not a static input value.

hi pete,

thanks for prompt reply. The pods and the USB controller are quiet good and it took me relatively long time to find the right positions for full speed, idle and reverse (i love it) so now to establish so called new dead zones

to enable the auto throttle will become to difficult.

so unless there is not better idea prefer to leave it as it is and just set speed manually.

thks and best regards

Hello CJK,

have a look at the software of the fs-communicator.. this works very nice for the airbus and you can also make it in a fly-by-wire version than.

hi,

unfortunately I did not as promised and left everything as it was but re-constructd the throttle and now the fsuipc do not recognize them and let me not adjust the same.

i downloaded and installed the new version 330.

what can I do??

thanks in advance

Sorry, I don't really understand what you are saying.

If the throttle is not assigned in FS, it won't be seen in FSUIPC. FSUIPC is not a joystick driver, it is not processing joystick inputs, it is processing FS controls. You need to get the throttle working reasonably well in FS first, using standard methods.
