Honeycomb Bravo & SPAD.neXt - TriStar throttle lever resets to idle when physical lever not moving

Featured Replies

I decided to try setting up controls for the TriStar using my Honeycomb Bravo in SPAD.neXt instead of using the sim's built-in bindings, and I've run into a bit of a problem: the throttle lever in the TriStar's cockpit resets to zero (idle thrust) when the physical lever on my Bravo isn't actively moving. See this video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U7UFaQO1-VXJzfFhl_SA5pK43_ZUKs3R/view?usp=drive_link

This is basically the last obstacle I have to cross in order to have all my controls for this aircraft in SPAD instead of the sim settings (I don't like needing to have settings for the same thing in two different places at the same time). I don't know if this is an aircraft bug or a skill issue on my part, but I'm leaning toward the former, as I've tried all the SPAD thrust lever bindings I can find, and they either don't work at all or exhibit the above behavior. If there's any other information I'd need to provide in order to troubleshoot this, please let me know.

Hey @zbrainlezz

That is odd, I do have both and I'll check as well. I've been using mine bound via FSUIPC7 at the moment so I do know it can be controlled externally, but will see if can reproduce the above issue via SPAD specifically.

Based on video alone seems like while Bravo is active, its sending commands but once it stops giving commands, another device thats still at idle is then taking over perhaps?
Can you confirm there isn't another connected device that is being read by the sim (or SPAD) also sending thrust commands, thereby creating a conflict with each other?
Thanks!

I don't have any other device/axis bound to the throttles as far as I know, but I'll double-check. What's even more odd is, if I bind the throttles in the sim instead of in SPAD, they work fine.

Edit: Just checked and nope, no conflicting bindings.
