hannibal Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Yesterday I decided fire up the L39C doing the cold start training in dcs Cleared all joystick bindings. Mapped my throttle axis to joystick as slider. Also mapped set throttle to idle But the in game virtual throttle does not move, nor does it show movement in show controls indicator. Also when training asks me to set throttle to idle, nothing happens, ralt + home does nothing and the mapped joystick button for throttle to idle no worky also... find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179

I just tried my L39 (its a long time since I flew her), checked my mappings and the Throttle Idle lock was operated with RAlt+Home, once the throttle was out of Idle, the lever moved as expected: Attach your dcs.log file, to look for more clues about your issue. It seems strange that the RAlt Home doesnt work, as that rules out a duplicated axes binding ... maybe you have a user Mod that is conflicting?

IF i am NOT a warthog user, can u specifiy what i should map for controls and axises? i only mapped the throttle axis and the move to idle command... im not sure if the move to stop has significance in this issue...

If you have these commands mapped, it should work alright. I am also not a Warthog user, and the throttle works as intended. You first have to push the "Throttle to idle" button, then the throttle lever will move from the stop to the idle position. Then you can use your throttle freely to manipulate the throttle in the sim. If that doesn't work for you, then something is probably wrong with the axis assignment or with your hardware. 2 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven
hannibal Posted February 14 Author Posted February 14 ok, i revisited the L39C controls. when i go to instant action cold start caucasus, i am able to press the throttle to idle button mapping, see the throttle move to idle, and then use my hotas to move the throttle. HOWEVER, in the L39 DCS Training, both the throttle to idle command and throttle axis do NOT do anything... @Flappie how are u! find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179

I've just tested this with my keyboard and couldn't reproduce the issue. Is the mission Training > "L-39C. Start up, Taxi and Takeoff"? Does it work with keyboard only? ---

Please, provide some material - track file, screenshot of your bindings. You're not giving us anything we can act upon. I just tested the same training mission, when it started, I checked my bindings (these are NOT the default ones BTW): I got back to the mission, pressed THROTTLE - IDLE key combo, worked fine. Now I can move the throttle with axis. Freely. If I use THROTTLE - STOP (at the bottom of the throttle), I can't move the throttle anymore. It just works. There are SOME issues with throttle to STOP, but only in some missions and these are caused by the rear pilot blocking the throttle movement to stop. That's another problem, I believe it is unrelated to the one you're describing. But we NEED a track file. Otherwise it's just "it doesn't work". And no one can help you. There is nothing to analyze. I understand it can be frustrating when something doesn't work - and there may be reasons why it doesn't work just for you. E.g. mods sometimes do funny things. But you have to provide some material for analysis. 1 1 L-39, F-4E, F-5E, F-14, F/A-18C, MiG-15, F-86F, AJS-37, C-101, FC2024 Yak-52, P-47, Spitfire, CE2 UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50 III, SA342 NTTR, PG, SY, Chnl, Norm2, Kola, DE Supercarrier, NS430, WWII, CA VKB STECS+Gladiator/Kosmosima+TPR DCS Unscripted YouTube "Favourite" bugs: 1) Object local camera fast/slow inverted, 2) Yak-52 toggles not toggling, 3) all Caucasus ATC bugs
AJaromir Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Hello. I tested what's going on and found what's happening. Your throttle axis must be set to 0%. If the throttle axis is not set to 0%, you can not move throttle lever from cutoff to idle.
