Foul Ole Ron Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 Ran into an issue when trying to move the left and right throttles to asymmetric levels. Sometimes the right engine RPM won't move until you move the left throttle a little. Then both the left and right RPM move to where they should be. To reproduce: 1. Have both left and right RPM set to e.g. 85% 2. Move only the left throttle a bit forward to 87% and both the left and right RPM will increase to that number together (I'm presuming this shouldn't be the case?) 3. Then try to move the right throttle back to idle and nothing will happen - the right RPM will stay at 87% 4. Move the left throttle forward a tiny bit and then suddenly the right engine RPM will drop back to idle I'm using an X-55 dual throttle and didn't try to reproduce yet with the keyboard commands.
Rowan Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Hey Ron, this happened to me when my throttle wires broke inside the throttle. Does it only do it in the Hornet?
Foul Ole Ron Posted June 1, 2018 Author Posted June 1, 2018 Thanks - looks like it's maybe throttle issue on my side. When using the keyboard commands after removing the throttle axis mapping the above behaviour doesn't happen. Not sure why it would work ok sometimes and sometimes not - maybe something is sticking inside the throttle when they're in the same position.
