Hi again,

Honnestly I don't know yet if I'll add it or not.

Hi Jeehell

First of all: Thank you very much for your excellent software. As a real world A32X Pilot, a complex Airbus Simulation to use at home is very welcome Installation and setup went ok, FS is connected. The only issue so far that I'm experiencing is the thrust lever axis. I set up the detents in your tool, but as soon as I move them "in game", strange values appear on the E/WD: negative percent Values for the N1, donut (thrust lever angle) jumping all around and even going back as I move the lever forward from IDLE to TOGA. Also, the donut symbol wraps around clockwise. On my joystick, full fwd has value "0" and full aft has value "65536", so "reverse sense" so to say...I can't figure out why...

Hello,

Welcome on board!
Concerning your problems with the THR LVRs, how many joystick axes do you use?
Also, in the Configuration tool, what number did you give for the error zone around the detents? You have to make sure that each detent is not overlapping with the adjacent ones (especially the MCT and idle ones, being very close to other detents). I will try tonight to calibrate my lever "reverse" style, to see if there is any trouble with that.

Jean Luc,

Tried both 1 and 2 axis. Both the same issue. Mappings do not overlap and the error zone tolerance is about 1000 (is this enough?). Moving from IDLE to CLB, the donuts go back. When the CLB detent kicks in, they go to about 6 o'clock position on the E/WD. Reaching FLX/MCT, they jump to 4 o'clock, TOGA is again somewhere at 6o'clock with a value of about -239.9% N1. The engines do not spool up at all in the sim though...

Thx

Hi again,

Then it's probably the reverse way which is faulty. I'll check on my side. You can also confirm it by assigning the detents in wrong direction physically...
Also did you assign all detents i.e. Reverse as well?

I just mapped the whole thing "top-down", so IDLE on top at value 0 etc. Still the same behaviour. And yes, I assigned all detents.

UPDATE: Got it figured out...it was a FSUIPC Issue. Installed the latest version and now everything is fine Sorry about that...

One little thing I've found: When entering an Engine Out Altitude (as a reminder) on the T/O PERF page, the value stays in the scratchpad. It should disappear.

Keep it up! Great piece of software!

Hello,

Ok good you figured out the thr lvr issue.
I'll look at the engine out thing. Just so you know, engine out operations are not yet available...

Hi Jeehell,

In the FMGS there 's the possibility to enter a waypoint like this : NAME/BRG/DIST

Hello,

Well it is possible in my software as well...
