Throttle axis off but still read joystick input

[bcs112]

Hi,

I've programmed my own N1 mode for my panel, directly controlling the throttle input.

As long as the aircraft is on the ground though I want the pilot to still be able to cancel the take-off by moving the throttle input on the joystick to < 50% input. The problem is that if I don't disable (through FSUIPC) the joystick throttle axis, it will constantly interphere with the throttle inputs I give in code. If I do disable the axis, then I can not detect if the user has moved the throttle axis to < 50%.

So is there an FSUIPC offset that allows me to read the joystick axis input even though I have disabled the throttle axis ?

Thanks,

Björn

Sorry for the delay -- as announced here, I have been on holiday.

If you are disabling the input via offset 310A, then, as documented in the write-up for that offset, the value which would otherwise have been used is readable in the offset range 3328-3339. The whole process is supported for fly-by-wire intervention.

Thx Pete, tried that one and it works even though the values are not 100% as I don't callibrate my joystick through FSUIPC and I don't want the users of the panel to do so neither.
