jasonstory44 Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Was wondering if someone could help straighten me out. Having trouble figuring out how to setup the throttle detent on thrustmaster warthog. I have it setup for A-10C but can't remember how I did it. any guidance greatly appreciated. Hope everyone is having fun!

Thermal Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Top of the throttle body, between the the left and right throttle is a thin cover plate held in by two screws. Remove that, underneath, and the front of travel is a small plastic shim you need to pull out and reverse. You can test it without putting the cover back on.

In the control inputs, it's called IDLE/OFF if I remember correctly, and are set to buttons 29 (for the right engine) and 30 (for the left engine). For the afterburner detent, do what Thermal said.

Eagle7907 Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 I’ve noticed the same. Can’t really figure out why starting I can’t get the throttle in cockpit to go to idle. I have to do the keyboard command.

Revelation Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 You want to have your throttles in the idle position, click on the IDLE/DETENT keybind for the throttle and then move the respective throttle to the detent position.

Eagle7907 Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 It works like that for every module. Not quite. I’ve left my throttle in off on the AV8 and it starts the first attempt. Also A10C.

AlaskanGrizzly Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) Forgetting the controller type (I have an x65 BTW ), how can this be done in the sims controller setup and axis tuning? For my X-65 I am not yet sure how how to set it up for the idle detent, but as far as the afterburner detent I am using the following custom curves for each throttle axis: Slider User Curve 0, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 For me that puts full mil power just before the AB detent. EDIT: I just figured out a way to get the idle detent to work using bands and advanced commands in the profiler software. I put the bands on mode 4 so I don't accidentally kill the engines mid-flight. 1) Using the profiler software add three bands to both throttles. The first (top) band should be 93% and the 2nd and 3rd bands should split the difference (3-4% each). 2) Assign an advanced command to the 2nd bands for the Engine Starts. Use only the 'Press' command and set the press intervals for both keys to 0 and the release interval for both keys to .1 3) Assign an advanced command to the 3rd bands for the Engine Shutoffs. Use only the 'Press' command and set the press intervals for both keys to 0 and the release interval for both keys to .1 4) Test the profile to make sure the start commands fire only once when the throttle is moved into the idle detent and the shutoff commands fire only once when the throttle is moved to the off position. I'm attaching my x-65 profile for reference.DCS FA-18C.zip Edited May 31, 2018 by AlaskanGrizzly
DocSigma Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 The op is correct. The keystroke is pressed in the idle to off position and not the off to idle transition as it does in the A10.

Elysian Angel is correct. For some reason on my Warthog throttles, moving the left throttle lever into OFF selected the correct button (30) but the right lever selected button 20. Manually changing it to 29 fixed the issue.

Punisher74 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 what he wants is to set up the off to Idle like in the A-10C in a cold start. i.e when the apu is ready to start the right end the pilot moves the throttle from off position to Idle. causing the engine to start spooling up. and Repeat for Left. Now in the input LUA for the A-10C there is this: {combos = {{key = 'JOY_BTN30'}} ,down = iCommandLeftEngineStop , up = iCommandLeftEngineStart, name = _('Left Engine Throttle Set OFF') , category = _('Systems')}, {combos = {{key = 'JOY_BTN29'}} ,down = iCommandRightEngineStop, up = iCommandRightEngineStart, name = _('Right Engine Throttle Set OFF'), category = _('Systems')}, Which allows combo use of the bindings. I edited it for the F/A-18C: { combos = {{key = 'JOY_BTN30'}}, down = iCommandLeftEngineStop, up = iCommandLeftEngineStart, value_down = 1.0, value_up = 1.0, name = _('Throttle (Left) - OFF/IDLE'), category = {_('Throttle Quadrant')}}, { combos = {{key = 'JOY_BTN29'}}, down = iCommandRightEngineStop, up = iCommandRightEngineStart, value_down = 1.0, value_up = 1.0, name = _('Throttle (Right) - OFF/IDLE'), category = {_('Throttle Quadrant')}}, but it still doesn't work. is there anyone that was able to program a Lua for the F/A-18C Lot 20 for Thrustmaster Stick and Throttle NOT USING the Profile tool supplied by Thrustmaster? That has a functioning OFF to IDLE start of the Left and Right Engines. ACT not pressing Alt and Space whatever Thanks, Lt.

gavin2121 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Solved!! Go to controller setup, ensure that both throttles are set in the off position. Scroll down to "Throttle (Left) - OFF/IDLE" and click on its remap button in the throttle column. Then, slowly lift the left throttle and nudge it forward a little. My left mapped to JOY_BTN30 I got a message advising that the button was already mapped to "Throttle Finger Lift....... bla bla... just ignore. Then repeat for Right.... should be JOY_BTN29 Now when on the ramp the throttle works as per the A10 from the off position. Hope this helps. Edited June 1, 2018 by gavin2121

M1Combat Posted July 6, 2018 Posted July 6, 2018 (edited) I'm running an X65F (Same as X65???) and this is what I've got... This makes it so I can push the throttle into the AB detente and have full mil, but get the AB just as I push it through the detente.
