Nevyn Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 I have sync controls on, at the start of a flight I have to move the TM throttles to idle and back to off to make them work the power levers from off to idle.
frostycab Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 This happens in the A-10C, F-18 and others too. The reason is that on the WH throttle the OFF position is essentially a button/switch, just like the other latched switches on the base. When you start a mission it doesn't read the position of switches that are in an ON state, so you have to cycle them OFF then back ON for them to register. Therefore I always load missions with my throttles at idle and then move them to the OFF position once I'm in the aircraft if it's a cold start.
Nevyn Posted March 23, 2022 Author Posted March 23, 2022 Not the F-18, that works fine. I haven't flown the A-10c in a long time so I am not sure about that one.
