VMFA-Blaze Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) I've just installed the F/A-18 and was going through the cold and dark mission I have a ThrustmasterThrottle installed but for some reason the throttle isn't recognized.. I've gone into the options menu and tried to set it up but with no success.. I don't have this issue with other modules. Is anyone else haveing this problem and if so have there been any conclusions as to how to fix this.

flyingscotsman Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 BRILLIANT LOVELY AIRCRAFT. However HOTAS WARTHOG, cannot get airbrake to deploy, have tried various buttons on the throttle and joystick. Although they MAP on the input, nothing happens. Did try a couple of MFD buttons, they said mapped, but does not deploy. Also, regarding MFD's does not seem to recognise them, but this is BETA so no sweat. Flaps work using the throttle Otherwise it looks lovely and very responsive.....now time to RTFM a LOT more THANK YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 30, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi seems ok on mine. please ensure your throttles travel the full axis, it should be recognised then. let me know if not Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

unknown Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I've just installed the F/A-18 and was going through the cold and dark mission I have a Crosswinds Throttle installed but for some reason the throttle isn't recognized.. I've gone into the options menu and tried to set it up but with no success.. I don't have this issue with other modules. Is anyone else haveing this problem and if so have there been any conclusions as to how to fix this. If you start cold and dark and want to start-up your engines you have to "unlock" your throttle axis with "right shift + home" and "right alt + home" before you can move them.

unknown Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 BRILLIANT LOVELY AIRCRAFT. However HOTAS WARTHOG, cannot get airbrake to deploy, have tried various buttons on the throttle and joystick... The Airbrake is not an toggle function. Look for Speedbrake, there is a "release" function - this is one click and the airbrake retracts. I can't remember the name of the deploy function, it's above the "release" function. You have to keep it pressed to deploy the airbreak!

Panzerfan Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Can't Move Throttle out of detent Hello When I tried the startup i couldn't move the any of both the throttles out of detend to spool up the engines, although i mapped both the throttles and the detents. the later to multiple different buttons for testing I also tried keyboard commands, which also didn't work I'm using the Thrustmaster Warthog I hope somebody can help me with this issue since no other module made this kind of problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscotsman Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Thank you for the advice, Bignewy and Unknown, The throttle travel and response is fine, I normally use one of the throttle buttons to OPEN, and the other to CLOSE the speedbrake. That does not work as I expected but I will experiment as per Unknown and do the holds, but as other half has done the cooking, Will come back to this tomorrow, THANK YOU GENTS for the swift response.

Havremonster Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 In controllpanel the thrust on my Saitek is ok, but it does not work in the plane. Same problem with the gear up/Down. Does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscotsman Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Thanks Unknwn & big news, got it working now, I have the external Cougar MFD’s. unlike the Harrier which came preprogrammed, this is not. However it’s beta, so hope that will come along sometime later. Very happy with this one ‘out of the box’as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMFA-Blaze Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 If you start cold and dark and want to start-up your engines you have to "unlock" your throttle axis with "right shift + home" and "right alt + home" before you can move them. That's excellent instructions.. I had the same issue with the A/V-8B.. Thank you for your help ...
