Reverse Thrust

[tcco94]

How can I reverse thrust. The only way I know how to is opening up the throttle panel and clicking both throttles and pulling them back all the way but I want to reverse thrust faster than that. I have the saitek throttle to and when you push it all the way back it still doesnt do reverse thrust.

I tried looking for a button maybe but there is no button. Is this the only way to do it? :-?

F2 works for me.

F2, okay thats what I was looking for. 

Thanks!  8-)

Hi,

Set up a 'spare' button on your joystick for reverse thrust, ie as in pressing F2, but pull throttle all the way back then use F2/joystick button, at around 70-80 knts just nudge throttle forward then back again to idle to cancel it and then use just wheel brakes.

Thanks Steve. Thats exactly what I did when I found the F2 function. I have spoiles and reverse thrust right next to each other on my joystick function. 8-)

I use Glenn Campbell's ARM_1!ARM_1 gauge.  It automatically engages reverse thrust & spoilers.......
