tinmouse 0 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Hi, I've downloaded the CRJ for flight Sim 2020. I'm reviewing your CRJ for my channel (GripperSim). The throttle is not responding at all for the CRJ but it is for other aircraft in the sim. Anyone have any ideas as how to get this working? Does it work for you or am i missing something? I also have a TQ6 quadrant, I may have to try it on that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manwlo 53 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Did you start the engines? The throttles will not move at cold and dark status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinmouse 0 Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 Oh! Is that how the real CRJ works, the throttle locks until engine start? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 18, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 18, 2021 Did you follow the calibration procedure ? Please see attached. CRJ Throttle Calibration Manual.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mv121 0 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Wrong! My throttles moved even though the engines were off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 22, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 22, 2021 Please check this tutorial on throttle axes assignement in the CRJ : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineMile 14 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I believe there is a problem. 1. No other throttle to any other controller. 2. Only the Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog 3. Throttle 1 AXIS, Throttle 2 AXIS Now will work but the throttle jitters all over the place and you can't control the speed. Now you ask about calibration procedure? If you use default same as above " jitter " all over the speed spectrum. I you try to do the manual adjustment it creates another problem? The jitter will be gone but you now have no Throttle movement in the cockpit? How can you place your Throttle in a climb position or other positions if your Throttle does not move. No problems with Throttle with any other aircraft only Aerosoft CRJ Bought this aircraft with hope of having an aircraft that is flyable in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Looking for a fix or work around solution. Otherwise the aircraft is staying in the hangar. I have finally figured out how to import a saved flight plan directly into the FMS of the Aerosoft CRJ. First you need a flight plan in Aerosofts .flp flight plan format. SimBrief will export to this plan. Then the file needs to be copied here: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\packages\aerosoft-crj\work In the CRJ FMS: Press FPLN Button. Press LSK 6L <SEC FPLN Press LSK 5L <ROUTE MENU Press LSK 1lL <PILOT ROUTE LIST Press LSK 1L/R, 2L/R, 3L/R, or 4L/R to select the desired flight plan. You will see ROUTE LOADED (MSG) at the bottom of the FMS screen in amber. Press LSK 5L <SEC FPLN Press LSK 5R ACTIVATE> Press the EXEC button Note that airways are not loaded in the FMS. Instead you will get direct routes to every waypoint along the airways you specified in your SimBrief flight plan. I got this info from the documentation in: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore\aerosoft-crj\Data\Documentation From SimBrief you should be able to export both a MSFS and Aerosoft flight plan. Then you could load the MSFS one at the world map and the Aerosoft one in the CRJ and they should match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 23, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 23, 2021 "Now will work but the throttle jitters all over the place and you can't control the speed." Sounds more like a calibration issue. Can you make a short video showing that jittering ? I suppose you also correctly calibrated the detents in the EFB ?

NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Thanks for the reply. I will make a short video of the jitter as it will be quite obvious when you see it. As to correctly calibrate the detents in the EFB this will do two things one the throttles will no longer move and will also show an error. Is there anyone that got the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog working/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 23, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 23, 2021 The calibration in the EFB souldn't prevent the throttle to move. What error is show ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 1. Here is the video. 2. Microsoft has one setup for all of your aircraft for your Throttle. Why does Aerosoft required a separate setup for the Throttle? 3 Error message. Error Engine #1 and #2 CLB overtaps TOGA? 4. Any adjustment made IDLE, CLIMB,TOGA AND MAX POWER always inputs -99999?

Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 23, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 23, 2021 There is definitely something wrong between the EFB calibartion and the throttle signal. Do you see the "Raw Input Data" values change during calibration ? Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I would have to agree the Raw Input Data change as I move the throttle. But I am at a loss as to what? Only answer I have is that it is not compatible with the Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog. Hope someone will come up with an answer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I believe it could be a problems with the CRJ Throttle Control? It could also be that we need a fix from Microsoft? Then again why do all other aircraft have no throttle problem? The HOTAS WARTHOG IS A KNOWN HIGHER END CONTROLLER. Why was it not tested? I would think that Aerosoft at least would acknowledge the problem instead of all of us trying to find a fix? In any case it is parked in the hangar.

Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 23, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 23, 2021 The Warthog is a simple device made of analog axes and buttons. Totally similar to any other devices. There is no reason why it would not work. I have tested it myself without any trouble. I didn't understand if the Raw value were changing or not. It should behave like it does in this video : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_rat 5 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 My warthog throttle works fine in the CRJ, it is assigned throttle 1 and 2 in MSFS, I had to make sure it wasn't assigned any other axis, I use the Zoom lever as the air speed brake. The flaps switch does funky things so I use the china hat for flaps. Not much I can tell you other than I set it up per instructions already given here.

Black_rat 5 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Just a thought, it may not have any bearing, but I run my WH Throttle with all switches in the off position, otherwise I get the dreaded altimeter/heading in 1000s increment bug. So in Windows controller settings I make sure no buttons are pressed on the throttle, its a nightmare in some games as the always on switches can affect things adversely. Good luck Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Thanks for replying at least you are showing the HOTAS WARTHOG THROTTLES. Are you telling me that you are running the CRJ with your default Throttle setup because Microsoft assigns these by default? Did you make any modifications? Next are you telling me you do not use the Aerosoft Throttle setup? Is your HOTAS up to date as far as firmware update by Thrustmaster? Are you plugging your HOTAS to a 2.0 USB or a 3.0 USB I am trying to check everything because I use the HOTAS Joystick, HOTAS Throttles and Thrustmaster TM Rudders and have been using them for 8 years without any problems in FSX, P3D and Microsoft with all aircraft only the Aerosoft CRJ is giving me problems. I am at a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineMile 14 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I am not sure if I agree with SimWare with his comment: The Warthog is a simple device made of analog axes and buttons.

Are you sure we are talking about the same item? https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwi0jJiTvcfvAhWOisgKHVduDUIYABAEGgJxdQ&ae=2&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAESQeD2Ry_LJkJZJxDnLKEbc-l6bwtPdjfNaiUSpo-31nfq9p8rbWwnMESHyBR0HGCPOvEWc_5pOnBTVky1So1DfWtI&sig=AOD64_3G3pguhSJWU-qIUbL2EBrix5f18Q&ctype=5&q=&ved=2ahUKEwi5x46TvcfvAhXHFFkFHWDsDKsQ9aACegQIARBD&adurl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 729 Posted March 23, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted March 23, 2021 Yes, absolutely. Just connect it to the computer, (avoid any driver) and it is recognized as a bunch of axes and buttons. (check it in the joystick utility in Windows.) Perform a full axes calibration and it will be recognized like any other joystick. It is only a series of potentiometers and buttons connected to a USB interface board.

This is not the default throttle setup, this is one I did, the default sucked iMO, basically that is all there is plus I use the L/G Warn button as a gear toggle, ignore the reference airspeed that was an earlier experiment. I have been using my CH quadrant but the jittery throttles make setting cruise speed hard in the CRJ so I went back to the WH. I used the Aerosoft throttle calibration on the EFD, you pretty much have to USB 2.0 (Blue socket) on a powered hub. You are not using TARGET profile are you, or have it active? Just a thought.

These were made long before any addon was released and only for some basic default aircraft. The best practice to avoid any apparently erratic bahavior, is to start from a blank sheet : Remove all the default assignments and make you own set. Axis per axis and button per button. And in the case of the CRJ, follow the EFB calibration process for the detents and make sure you assign Throttle levers to THROTTLE 1 AXIS and THROTTLE 2 AXIS. Do NOT use THROTTLE 1 AXIS (0 TO100%) and THROTTLE 2 AXIS (0 TO100%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
