Throttle Quadrant Startup problem

[larshgf]

Even though I have assigned and calibrated my Throttle Quadrant in FSUIPC I experience a problem when loading my Turbine Duke in FSX: The Condition Lever (Mixture Lever) is in the aft position on the Virtual Cocpit allthought its in the forward position on my CH Throttle Quadrant. Result: When the aircraft comes to life after loading, the engines stops (the condition lever has cut off the fuel supply).

Any solution?

Sounds like you've calibrated it the wrong way around. Either that or you are loading a flight which is the mixture position saved as full lean -- it won't necessarily see the quadrant lever unless you move it as neither FSUIPC not FS take notice of static positions, they only use inputs from devices when they change. So you must always save flights with the controls set the way you want them on reload.

Thank you Pete. The problem was that the three axis (power, prop, mixture) on my yoke was not deleted. After i did that in FSX the problem was solved.
