If you fit the afterburner detent (i.e. reversed from factory fit) you may find the standard throttle setting do not give the wanted aircraft behaviour. For example 100% mil power up to the detent for F/A-18C, or getting above 85% power in the non-afterburning A-10C. I tend to swap between these two aircraft so the throttle always has the afterburner detent set-up. The problem is that the Warthog Throttle afterburner detent (position or state) is not modelled by DCS. So you need to re-map the throttle to mimic the general behaviour.
With the afterburner detent fitted, these Throttle HOTAS Warthog settings give a good fit.
Axis Assign
Throttle - HOTAS Warthog
JOY_RZ and JOY_Z
Axis Tune
Deadzone = 0
Saturation X and Y = 100
Slider, User curve
A-10C/A-10C II (for linear power and 100% at the detent)
0,0,0,0,4,16,30,46,62,80,100
F/A-18C (for linear power and max mil at the detent, afterburner past the detent)
0,6,13,21,33,45,56,68,79,90,100
For the F/A-18C, I also mapped to turn the engines off past the idle detent:
Throttle (Left) - OFF = JOY_BTN30
Throttle (Right) - OFF = JOY_BTN29
Note there is no JOY_BTN in the afterburner detent region of each throttle, so you cannot turn the afterburner on/off this way, i.e. map to Cycle Afterburner Detent - ON/OFF.
Sorry, I only have these two aircraft at the moment. So cannot give for any other aircraft.
Hope this info is helpful.
