Check whether your keyboard makes the right entries. Sometimes keyboards have different lay outs. Remap in the Options pannel.

Yep, now I cannot trim the plane.......tiresome for the right hand

I have the same issue, also with the dcs su 27 (which i bought first).....i cannot trim the plane. Annoying!

Thank again, and hope to see you in the air one day!

I think I got it working now: i increased the deadzone of the joystick to 10perc and green lights and beautiful engine screams! End wiggled the throttle slider up and down a couple of times.........

In the air the joystick slider works; the engine goes to afterburner and back when I use it. I still have the problem that I cannot start up the engines with the keyboard keys on a cold start. The slider appears for Thrust on the Axis alone. It gives headaches....

Thanks, I noticed that the joystick slider (which I normally use for throttle up and down) is on Axis Assign allocated to Thrust (SU27 Axis Commands). In SU27-All, the various Throttle commands are only allocated to the keyboard keys. The same goes for the Engine commands.

The joystick is recognised/listed as a controller by the game, however moving the throtle does not result in more or less power, it does not work. In the air the throttle button does not gibe any results either. Only the Keyboard throttle keys work. In Options only the keys are mapped nothing is entered for the stick where engine etc is mentioned. I greatly apprecite the help.

To avoid any misunderstanding, the joystick itself is OK. The throttle handle on the stick works according to its software. However it does not respond in the game or is not recognised

This is the first time I play FC3. Years ago however with LockOn it worked. I unplugged the joystick, and now the engines started up!!!! After I plugged it in again the start up was no longer possible. Is there something I should do with the stick? It does not have the engine start buttons allocated and the throttle handle does not function.

Yes, I have done that, it just keeps silent; no action. I read earlier that the engines do not start up if the throttle is not at idle / 0. How can I achieve that?

Thanks Pepec, I already did that several time, but nothing happens.....

Hi guys, I am new here, but years ago I was happily flying in Falcon and LockOn. Now I have returned but ran into a major problem: I cannot get the engines to start up. I have tried to put my throttle to idle by madly pusshing the Num- button, but nothing happens. I am using a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick and a regular keyboard. Can anybody please help?
