Completely agree, jiggling my throttle lever backward and forward to gain forward motion is not good game play :helpsmilie:
I found that this post helped. Even though it starts out about rudder pedals it goes on to throttles.

Hope it helps. My throttle pedal now works, but I do need to find the sweet spot for each gear (in automatic gear mode) and brakes do not exist!!
