Throttle not working
No matter what I do, I can not seem to get the throttle to push the engines.
I tried with a Saitek throttle and then a Logitech joystick. I followed the calibration steps precisely. I also deactivated it from FSX. The elevators and ailerons do work, but not the throttle.
Am I missing something. Help appreciated.
Regards

Re: Throttle not working
Make sure you have adequate dead space between each detent or it may not work.

Re: Throttle not working
There is enough space between the detents. I follow exactly the calibration steps for the throttle (including about 2% error).
What I do is after I start the APU and then start both engines, I switch on the fuel pumps and then push the throttle but nothing happens. Could it be that I am missing some steps in the start up procedure and hence the engines are not allowed to be powered beyond idle.

Re: Throttle not working
Do you have AP/FBW running?

You need to run the fbw external program.
