Throttle stuck in reverse


berkkp

Recommended Posts

When reverse thrust is engaged, increasing the throttle with my hardware (Thrustmaster TWCS throttle), the engines will spool up but in reverse thrust rather than exiting reverse thrust. Is there any setting to stop this behavior? Usually as soon as the throttle gets moved above 0% the reversers should disengage, as in any other aircraft.

Use reverse hold.  When this is activated, it puts the aircraft into reverse idle.  Moving the throttle forward will increase the amount of reverse thrust.  When ready to stow reversers, move the throttle back to idle and deselect reverse hold.  The throttles then go back to normal operation.

Looks like this on the in sim bindings assuming you don't use AAO or Spadnext. There is no provision for engine 1 or 2.  It holds all reversers.

Speaking of which, I tried to map the "hold reverse thrust" in AAO last night but I could not get it to work - it would only work by pressing and releasing the button on my controller (I tried the two reverse thrust commands but ended up with the same result). Is there something I'm mapping incorrectly here?

Upon further review, and I had long ago forgotten about this, I actually have that mapped in the sim.  AAO has a problem with that command.  I thought it was fixed by now but apparently not.  It had been so long ago, I forgot about this.  I will get a hold of Loriby and see what the progress is on this.  In the mean time, map it as above.

Got it, thanks. 👍 Yes, I've used it as mapped in the sim and found it to work flawlessly.

Holy Crap!  I haven't tried it in a while.  This works.  I have not tried to hold the individual engines, just both.  Sweet.  I have V4-10 b57 i think.  Give it a whirl.  Notice I added a key up with a 0 in it to make sure it comes out of reverse.  Seems to work.  I am going to go change all my aircraft now!  Sweet, God knows I love a blank in sim profile!.

Ok, I can confirm that works for everything but the Fenix.  I think it has to do with their half in the sim half not in the sim/throttle config and just the Airbus throttle operation in general.  So, that one stays in the sim.
