Setting for throttle with 2 axes is not applied


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello

I just tried to calibrate the axes. This is set correctly in the EFB and the bars also display it correctly there (Axis 1 moves throttle 1 and 2, axis 2 moves throttle 3 and 4).

Unfortunately, these settings are not applied to the aircraft. There, axis 1 only moves the throttle for engine 1 and axis 2 only moves throttle 2. Throttles 3 and 4 do not move.

I have already removed the ‘ThrottleData.ini’ file, but this did not help.

Thank you very much for your support.

Best regards,
Joël

Hey folks,

Struggling with throttle setup for the A340, using Virpil MongoosT-50CM3. My standard method works flawlessly for twin-engine addons, but this quad is a disaster. Any fixes or workarounds?

Quick Setup

  • Hardware: Virpil MongoosT-50CM3 (dual throttles)
  • Software: FSUIPC (latest), MSFS 2024 updated
  • Created A340-specific FSUIPC profile: Left axis → Throttle 1 ("Send to FSUIPC for calibration"), Right → Throttle 2.
  • MSFS Controls: Throttle 1 & 2 enabled, no conflicts.

Expected: Left controls Engines 1-2, Right for 3-4.

What I Tried

  • 2-Axis Mode (A340 tablet): Calibrated both axes in tablet - 1,2,3 and 4 appear to move fine there, but sim animations of the throttles are erratic (jumps, desyncs, detents off; Engines 3-4 laggy).
  • 1-Axis & 4-Axis Modes (A340 tablet): Total mess—throttles fight, plane unflyable.
  • Reconfigured the A340-specific FSUIPC profile: Left axis → Throttle 1 and 2 ("Send to FSUIPC for calibration"), Right → Throttle 3 and 4: Same as above...

Is this a known A340/FSUIPC bug? Successful dual-throttle setups (exact FSUIPC assignments)? Tips for EFB sync?

Cheers,

Here’s my resolution:

FSUIPC set: Created plane specific profile (A340) Axis 1 -> FSUIPC calibrated: Throttles 1&2; Axis 2 -> FSUIPC calibrated: Throttles 3&4

MSFS2024 set: Plane specific profile (A340 only) Axis 1 -> Throttles 1&2; Axis 2 -> Throttles 3&4

Plane Tablet set: 2 Axis

In plane movement for some of the throttles appeared as inverted (Throttles 2, 3 and 4). Reconfigure axis for these throttles as inverted in MSFS2024 to correct position in game vs physical position. 
 

Now that all axis and throttles were moving correctly I did final calibration in the Plane Tablet and I’m all set. 
 

I assume if iNi does some updates down the line I’ll need to do slight tweaks but for the moment I’m golden.
