mousemansteven 27 Posted October 5, 2021 Author Share Posted October 5, 2021 yes sir in p3dv5 up to date . i load the any aerosoft bus, for which i have ticked tca support in the 3xx configurator, throttles do not act together left 1 on idle right one is at climb with the reverser activated. flaps were reversed. view changes to outside when past clmb set on throttles, rudder pedles move when spoilers activated. when left throttle is activated both throttles move with the right one going to reverser. parking brake requires two activations to work. crank start switch works. both engine masters work. flaps work but not at proper detents, when flaps 1 selected it goes to position 2 gear lever requires 2 activations to work. and finally the autobrake switch does not work. warm regards and thanks for your help, steve the old fart.

Best regards. as a side note after playing around with the quadrant i tightened up the tension screw and now the throttle response is even at the near 50% green both x and y axis how ever when applying the reverse function the y axis goes green on initial activation. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousemansteven 27 Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 also the flaps are the same way as soon as they are activated the entire slot goes. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft SimWare 730 Posted October 9, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted October 9, 2021 Dear Steve, On the front of the throttle casing, there is a small switch allowing to switch between throttles 1&2 and 3&4. Can you please set it to 3&4 ? Then replug the unit and check for linearity in the calibration utility. Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virtual buttons on the axes are indeed defaulted to view change. I suggest you still switch to 3 & 4 and manually reassign the axes and buttons to fit your needs.
