Edmundo Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Hi Pete, I want to set up my single saitek throttle to work through my registered FSUIPC rather than through FSX, I tried to do this before but ran into problems where by throttle idle was at 40% and was unable to change this, so please can you walk me through the things I need to to do, What do I do about throttle axis in FSX? are there any other items that I need to uncheck or cancel or delete in FSX settings I have attached my flight sim build spec Kind Regards edmundo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the Saitek support forum. Otherwise it could simply be that you are using the assignments in FSUIPC which provide a reverse zone, which before calibration whould certainly place the idle at around 40-50% (though by proper calibration you could set that where you wished). If you want to use it as a simple forward thrust only lever then assign your single throttle lever only to "axis throttle set" and calibrate on page 1 of the calibration tab.

I had the same problem and for me it was exactly this: I used "throttle set" instead of the correct "axis throttle set". Thank you!
