Do the FA=18C Throttles IRL Have a Center Detent?

Do the IRL FA-18C have a center detent for the throttles? Just wondering where my center detent should be on an Orion 2. So let say in general at bar 29.92 sitting on the carrier. A fuel flow of 50%?

There is no center detent.

It should go in the box. Center detent is optional, and you don't install it if you're flying an aircraft. It's for when you want to use your HOTAS to play something like Elite:Dangerous or Mechwarrior 5, where you have forward and reverse on the same axis. In a flight sim there's no use for this.

I never knew that, thanks as it is a bit annoying when working the throttles back and forth on a carrier landing. I'll remove it today.
