Bravo Throttle Rotation Knob | Increase/Decrease Issue


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have an older Bravo Throttle and it has been working flawlessly until a few days ago. Like the previous poster with the same issue, I have to turn the knob several times in order for the Alt. when selected to increase/decrease. All other selections are working. Windows joystick utility does not show any lag.

 

Would it be recommended to open the throttle housing and clean the selector knob pot? Failing that, does anyone sell spare parts?

 

Thank you,

Robert

Do you mean the in the Windows joystick utility  the response of the knob is correct but not in the simulator ?

Hello,

 

No, the Windows Utility (Game Controllers) "Buttons" test tab shows an issue with the Bravo Throttle Quadrant. When "ALT" (button 21) is selected, the utility shows ALT & VS (20 & 21) detecting the signal while turning the increase/decrease knob (button 13/14). I suspect there is some dirt or dust that has to be cleaned from the pot.

 

Are there any precautions that I must take when opening and cleaning the pots? Are they sensitive to touch or pressure. Any feedback would be appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Robert
