Blazkovitch Posted September 21, 2023 Posted September 21, 2023 Is there a specific reason for setting minimum value of Idle in Special Settings to 3 and not 0? 1

That"s for throttles with a hardware detent at idle. So you can go beyond idle (backwards to cut off) without losing a part of the range of the throttle lever(s).
Blazkovitch Posted September 21, 2023 Author Posted September 21, 2023 But I'm not sure why I can't set it to 0. Maybe I'm misunderstanding this but in STECS I can bind Engine Off and Idle to "virtual" events/buttons triggered by going over the detent and I have to push the throttle slightly to make it go to idle (my assumption is that it has to go to 3 even though it should go there because of the event/button). I'll try to tweak the detent settings in VKB cfg tool but I'd rather have the same setting in all planes and it's working fine in f-16.
Blazkovitch Posted September 21, 2023 Author Posted September 21, 2023 Hm, ok. I think it was because my "virtual" curves in VKB cfg were slightly off. I tweaked them and now the idle is registering properly. Thx
