He obviously thought like me when I first got the TM Hotas. I also wasn't aware that you had to lift the throttle levers over that hump, I just thought pulling back before the hump was as far as it would go. His confusion, I suspect, is because while someone has mentioned a hump nobody has told him to physically lift the throttle. I don't think that there is any other throttle about where you have to do this, so I understand his confusion at first.
