Thanks for the reply! Your tips helped me out big time. I'm back up and running!

WAHOOOO! THANKS, THAT DID THE TRICK! You saved me a ton of work for nothing (reinstalling Windows). I can't tell you how much I appreciate it - especially the details you put in your post; it was the details - and the file - that made the difference. Thanks again, I'm back in business.

I can't wait to try this! Thanks for the help... What's scary is - if what you're saying is the case, then a complete reinstallation of Windows wouldn't even have fixed the issue! Yikes! I will try this and update the thread later.

I used version 1.07 of the calibration tool that's specifically for the dual throttle. The ones in the thread you mentioned are for the HOTAS (joystick). I don't know if there is a direct correlation between version numbers and peripherals (joysticks and throttles), but if there is, then I have hope that there are more recent versions than 1.07. The versions for the HOTAS on the thread you directed me to were 1.11 and 1.13. What's crazy is that Thrustmaster doesn't seem to mention (that I can find) ANY kind of calibration tool - though they are apparently out there if one can find them.

I foolishly tried a tool that I downloaded called the Thrustmaster calibration tool, and now for the last three days, the thrust calibration is whacked. It only works in the last 1cm of travel and in that 1cm of travel, it goes from zero thrust to full afterburner, and nothing in-between. It's almost, but not quite, useless. All other control functions work perfectly. Today I successfully refueled in-flight, and talk about stroking the throttle to maintain position on the fuel nozzle - it was challenging. I had to do it for the challenge though. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? I have uninstalled/reinstalled drivers, reinstalled firmware, tried Windows 10's USB Game Controller calibration tool, tried restarting my computer, and changing USB ports (there is no hub in use between the throttle and the PC). I opened up the throttle to check wiring, though I didn't really think this was likely the issue since it happened immediately after using that stupid calibration tool, but no issues that I could see with wiring. I did see another thread on this from December 2020, and posted there as well. I hope I'm not in violation by starting a new thread, but I am going crazy. I contacted Thrustmaster support using their contact page on March 27th, but haven't heard back except to say "we received your request." If I have to, I'll reinstall Windows, but I can't even imagine how monumental of a task that will be. I'm running Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, dual throttle, and pedals. Please, can anyone offer some advice to help me?

I tried that to no avail. The throttle continues to have the same issue.

bkthunder (or anyone) - I'm having the exact same issue, but can't get it fixed. I've tried reinstalling firmware, drivers, different USB ports, etc, etc. It all started when I downloaded and ran a Thrustmaster Warthog calibration tool. Now I can't get my throttle to work like before. The latest calibration tool I've been able to find is version 1.07. I'm not sure if that's the latest version or not (because I can't find ANY version of the calibration tool on Thrustmaster's website). I contacted Thrustmaster via their website's technical service option, and they replied via email that they'd get back to me soon. That was four days ago, and still nothing. So - does anyone have a later (or different) calibration tool that might help me out? I'm about one step away from completely reinstalling Windows if I have to - and I REALLY don't want to do that.
