I use the Honeyomb Bravo. BUT in MSFS2020, as I stated above. I have now again tried the bindings exactly as you supposed and is described in the "Bravo-A340" PDF: [TOGGLE THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST + DECREASE THROTTLE] bound to one of the thrust lever end position switches - and the Throttle Configuration settings exactly as depicted in the video (...before I had them set to "Smart THR LVR Idle Lock" > Off, and "Fully Manual Config" > On).
The throttle behaviour is exactly as I have described above:
When I momentarily switch (i.e. toggle) the thrust lever end switch, all reverser levers in the sim go to the idle reverse position, also showing REV engaged on the ENG display. But when I then move any throttle lever forward, the respective reverser lever in the sim immediately returns to the 'stowed' position, and forward thrust is applied. I have no other bindings affecting the throttles (apart from the default keyboard F2 command bound to DECREASE THROTTLE). I have no idea why it works differently in my sim as in the video. You tell me...
And I'll say it again:
Having to assign a latching switch to a 'toggle' function is not a good solution in the first place. Toggle functions are for momentary switches. And having to quickly cycle the throttle switch(es) is a) nothing more than a bad workaround, and b) killing the immersion. MSFS has a binding for the selection of (idle) reverse thrust with latching switches, and that is HOLD THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST. It works in all other aircraft, including the Aerosoft CRJ (!). Just not in the A346, where it immidiately sets max reverse thrust.
Also: DECREASE THROTTLE does not decrease the throttles beyond IDLE in the A346, i.e. into reverse up (...or rather down) until max reverse thrust. This is also different from all other aricraft in MSFS, again including the Aerosoft CRJ (!)
Yes, of course... But as SimWare answered, the system should work with standard in-game bindings.
