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

NVM it does say to do that in the FAQ for the TCA throttle. However it says to use 0-100 and that doesn't work well for me. I just use the normal throttle axis.

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.

I have the exact same problem. Very frustrating!

 

In the EFB, all the throttles are doing the correct thing. I have the Thrustmaster Airbus. I set Reverser on axis and 2-axis.

When I move Throttle 1 on my hardware, I see throttle 1+2 move in the EFB, but in the cockpit only throttle 1 moves. When I set full reverse thrust, I see it in the EFB, but on the Throttles in the cockit only the reverse levers are pulled but not reverse thrust applied (stuck in the idle position).

 

I deleted the ini file and stated again. When looking at the ini file, it doesn't mention at all that I use the 2-axis configuration.

 

£50 spent for nothing. Can't even do a basic flight...

On top of calibrating in EFB you have to set the axis in MSFS 2024

I have the thrustmater Airbus as well, it took me some times but now working perfectly

LAXIS X for Throttle 1 Axis (0 to 100%)

LAXIS X for Throttle 2 Axis (0 to 100%)

LAXIS Y for Throttle 3 Axis (0 to 100%)

LAXIS Y for Throttle 4 Axis (0 to 100%)

And check Reversers on Axis YES in EFB Throttle options

X for 1/2 and Y for 3/4 is only a workaround. With axis-settings in the EFB it should work with 1/2 only (ass you can see in the EFB it self). Because like this you have to change the settings every time when you fly a twin-engine.

Hi Joggu, 

I set up X for 1/2 and Y for 3/4 only for inibuilds A340-300 so no  impact on all other twin-engine. 

I don't have to select A340 profile it is done automatically. Give it a try 😉
