Hi, I have just purchased the Thrustmaster TCA and having problems with my PMDG, and QW products (the other aircraft I own is the FSLabs with no problems). Basically I calibrate my throttle with the Idle, max and reverse zones however it is like P3D is ignoring it. No matter what I do with my settings, I cannot get idle to work at idle without going to full reverse and cannot get my reversers to work. If any idea why this may be please help. I have attached screenshot of my FSUIPC setting. I amon FSUIPC 6 with P3Dv4.5 HF3. Thank you.

Have you calibrated your TCA Quadrant as described in the instructions?
Please see the following post/comment (and subsequent comments for the download links): 

However, if its working for the FSLabs (and default aircraft?), then it may be due to the controls for that particular aircraft.
Try switching to using the FS controls (and not direct to FSUIPC calibration), and try various controls to see what work for those aircraft.

Please don't post screenshots or links to screenshot. We need to see your FSUIPC6.ini file to see your assignments, usually in conjunction with your FSUIPC6.log file (with appropriate logging activated). For trouble-shooting assignment issues, FSUIPC logging is your friend. Try activating axis logging and see what events you see when you move the throttle in the aircraft, and see what events are logged when you move your TCA throttle levers.

Also, please check for other posts for the TCA quadrant and the add-on aircraft that you use, both here and in the forums for the add-ons that you use.
This is a popular quadrant and there is a lot of information out there. The first thing I do when I receive such reports (as I have neither the TCA Quadrant or the add-on aircraft that you use) is google!

Hey, thanks for the reply. I ended up figiruing it out, I had to tick use FSUIPC calibration rather then set to FS axis (wording may be off). Thanks again for the help!
