Collective mapping issues

[j0nx]

I am having major problems with the Huey in that the engine starter and throttle axis are not responding at all in the sim when the huey is loaded into a cold and dark state. They map ok in the controls section but then when I try to use them in the sim with a cold start they do not work. I am getting this behavior on both 1.5 beta and 2.0 and on 2 different machines. I think there is a new bug in the latest versions of the sims. When I start with an engine running flight the throttle axis works but not when I load a cold and dark flight. The home key doesn't even make the starter go at all regardless of what kind of flight I load. Page up page down moves the throttle when starting the flight from cold and dark but the axis binding isn't working in the sim when the flight is loaded cold and dark. I have no way to start the Huey from cold and dark because none of the starter mappings work at all. The usb controllers work fine on every other axis and in every other module. I deleted the config folder and recreated all of the binding and it still does this on both machines I have tested it on. Any ideas?

 

Edit: figured out the throttle axis issue. If it's below the detent then the axis doesn't work until you move the throttle above the detent using the pgup key and then the axis works. This is new behavior. The starter button still will not work for me at all in the latest builds of 1.5 or 2.0 on two different pc's though...

Installed the steam beta and same thing. No matter what I do the starter won't engage and won't start spinning the blades. I hold the home key and/or the switch on my joystick that I have bound to the engine starter and nothing happens at all. Even following the huey training cold start tutorial I can't get the starter to ever engage. It's been a while since I did a cold start but never had any issue before. What's going on here!
