Usual disclaimers; May have already been posted, nothing you don't already know, etc... Note: They do use (credited) video from DCS in the video! :thumbup:

I thought it looked a little low myself, but to see it foam up like a shaken soda can was impressive!

http://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/25166/this-a-10-warthog-ground-trainer-still-has-a-tickler-muzzle-device-on-its-cannon Watch too the embedded video, especially the standby compass (as suggested by the author)!

Not certain with your posting, but remember that each controller is saved/loaded separately. I have wished forever that it would save each profile as a whole, but you have to save each controller one at a time... Could it be that you (for example) saved the joystick profile, and it loaded the rest of the controllers to their defaults?

I do NOT want to be picky, but I feel I have to say something to avoid later confusion: Using the throttle during landing does NOT change your pitch, but rather your sink rate. That is precisely why it is used during that flight envelope. You want to maintain your pitch in relation to the deck, and adjust your sink rate using "speed", thus throttle... Again, I'm sorry to jump on your post, but I believe this precision is necessary to avoid the inevitable confusion with this subject. Class dismissed! :megalol:

Remember also; The Flaps Up position in the Hornet sets the flaps to automatic. They adjust themselves continually during flight to maintain the desired attitude/trim. The pilot's input is really telling the computer, "This is the attitude I want." Since you're on the ground, it probably assumes your next action will be to takeoff, so it retains the half down position until it detects the need to move... Maybe?

The Hornet OSB numbers are rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise, with OSB1 being lower left, vs. A-10 OSB1 being upper left.

I use the same setting, but I think I remember a setting labeled simply "Throttle (x) - OFF", which should function exactly as you seem to expect. The "OFF/IDLE" seems to be specifically designed for use with the Warthog, and similar controllers with the sustained "OFF" position. The downside being, you'd need to have/assign a second button to "Throttle (x) - IDLE"...

I was very surprised to find that Active Pause doesn't pause everything as it suggests. Many objects in the game world continue moving as they would. I imagine the deck planes get "paused", while the deck itself, does not... Might make an interesting video... ;)

There is already (or should be) a shortcut in the Eagle Dynamics folder on the Start Menu. There are options to Start, Repair, or Update DCS. The later two do not start the sim after running...

This may not help you, but; Many years ago, I actually built video cards. I hand assembled prototype cards for a Bay Area manufacturer, and tested the first run of manufactured cards. In testing that batch, I have seen this exact issue. In that case, a capacitor had been wedged under the memory chip so that it bridged a few pins. Long story short, if you have the opportunity, try another video card to rule out a hardware issue?

Check for a controller conflict, either with the axis, or maybe a button assigned to the throttle? IIR, the ATC will "disconnect" with throttle movement... Maybe a keybinding is giving a false throttle trace...

Have you checked the waypoint info? Maybe the plan is to change altitude... Just guessing, so I'm probably wrong...

This article explains what micro stutter is, and gives some opinions on how to fix them... *SPOILER ALERT* - It's probably not ED's fault... :smilewink: https://www.pcgamer.com/what-is-microstutter-and-how-do-i-fix-it/

But since the symbology is centered in the VV, maybe they're just displayed so you know that it's on, and not really picking up the signal?
