Orestd Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Hi. I just got the A10C and I just noticed That I can't map the throttle engine start to my Thrustmaster. I use VR and RALt Home and RCntl Home is a bit awkward. All the other aircraft allow me to map the throttle uncage to my hotas throttles. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, that should already be preconfigured for you with the Thrustmaster Warthog. Once in the cold and dark pit, move either throttle from OFF to IDLE and this should be reflected in the DCS A-10C. However, at the start of a mission, DCS might not be "aware" of your actual throttle position, so it might be necessary to move the throttle from OFF to IDLE, back to OFF, and once more to IDLE for DCS to catch up.

The OFF position has a momentary switch that is engaged when the throttle handle is there. Works as intended every time once I got into that habit.

Eugel Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Or if you activate "synchronize cockpit controls with HOTAS" from the options menu, it should work right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately not. At least for me and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eugel Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Well the option is there and all I can tell is that it works perfectly fine for me. So it´s worth a try for the OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This causes myriad other problems and is not reccomended. If I have it checked, I often have an uncontrollable pitch up after take off, and other control synchronization problems. 1 System: Intel Core i9-9900KF @ 5 Ghz, Z-390 Gaming X, 64Gb DDR4-3200, EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3, Dedicated SSD, HP Reverb G2, Winwing Orion & F-16EX DCS Modules: A-10C II, A/V-8B NA, Bf-109 K4, P-51D, P-47D, F/A-18C, F-14 A/B, F-16 CM, F-86F, JF-17, KA-50 Black Shark 2, UH-1H, Mosquito, AH-64D Longbow Terrains & Tech: Caucasus, Persian Gulf, Normandy, Syria, Nevada, The Channel, Combined Arms, WWII Assets, Supercarrier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
