Reverse Thrust problem

[Navymmw]

Sometime's not always, when I deploy reverse thurst, it will deploy for 1 seond, and then retract again. My throttle is down, and i did not
even touch the throtle when reverse thrust was deplyoed. This does not happen all the time it just heppens randomly. Does anyone else
have this problem?,

Do you have the auto throttle off?

[Navymmw]

yes, it is off

[ivo]

what plane are you flying with?

[WBHoenig]

Have you tried both with and without FsP?

[Cydon Prax]

that happens to me too-- Hit the '-' button on the numpad and hold it, instead.

I used to have this problem when I flew with throttle on the CH yoke LE.

even when you only touch the yoke, (and not the throttle) it resets the throttle.

(and even when you don't touch it, it has no dead point, so you "touch it nevertheless :P)

Don't have this problem anymore sinds I purchased the CH throttle quadrant. (must have!!)

I acualy reverse by pulling the leavers backwards. works great! (there are buttons hidden in the throttle leavers witch can be programmed
E.g. F2 button (reverse). in the idle position I programed F1, so when I have throttle at Idle, it realy is. (the yoke throttle had min. 1%
throttle!)

you can avoid your problem by programming a joystick button for reverse thrust, with autorepeat on (in FS9)

Regards, good luck

Funny this.

My default key is F2, hit it, and then F1 at just above 60 knots to keep FSP happy.
