Fahhh Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Hi All, I am having a funny issue - I go through the startup process however when I hit the engine starter button, nothing happens. Used to work (though not every time) before the latest update (3). I've went through the startup guides and tried them all.. The throttle does not move when starting from the ramp and I can't get it to the idle position - tried changing the key bindings but to no avail - happens both single and multiplayer, if the plane is set to Player or Client. If I do a start in the air, the throttle moves just fine. I also tried the autostart - and it failed - see attachment. Tried repairing the open beta install and also renaming the dcs.openbeta folder in saved games - no change. I am using Saitek X-52 without the saitek software (using joy2key) on windows 10. Other modules seem fine. Any ideas?
Whisper Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Should be "Right Alt + Home" key combination by default to unlock throttle from STOP position. The keybinding configuration for this is under "Systems", it's the item in full uppercase "THROTTLE TO IDLE" or something like that. Apart from that I don't see what could prevent you from unlocking the throttle.... Works fine on my side, as well as re-binding (works so fine that I had the "back to STOP" bound to a button on my throttle that was clearly misplaced, ended up stopping the engine just as I was ready to take off..... :) ) Edited October 24, 2015 by Whisper 1 Whisper of old OFP & C6 forums, now Kalbuth.

Everything was fine in quick missions but could not get the throttle to move for ramp start.I fixed it by mapping this. 1 Thermaltake View 91, Z390 Gigabyte Aorus Ultra, i9 9900K, Corsair H150i Pro, 32Gb Trident Z 3200, Gigabyte Aorus Extreme 2080ti, Corsair AX1200i, Warthog A-10 Hotas, MFG Crosswind pedals, TiR5 Pro, HP Reverb Pro
