Reverse thrust

[FCAIR]

Question about reverse thrust on the landing roll, Is this feature automatic in fsx? or are there keys settings I can't seem to find any. I seemed to remember that in FS9 it was automaticly engauged when applying brakes and throttle?

No it is not automatic. Need to press F2 upon touchdown to activate. Press F1 to release.

Thank you!!

I find that putting this control in a more convenient place makes it easier to use.
Under  the OPTIONS Menu Scroll down to SETTINGS click on CONTROLS
Now that you are in the Settings and Control page you can click on BUTTONS/ KEYS Now you can assign the reverse thrust to what ever you want.

I have set up my number one throttle lever to work as reverse thrust when it is pulled back below 0% thrust. Throttle 2 is set up as the Throttle cut control. The controls I use allow that setting. Under Assignments, reverse thrust is referred to as THROTTLE(DECREASE QUICKLY) You must assign the THROTTLE CUT as well so you can shut the reverse thrust down when you are under 60/70 Knts

Thanks for the tip on the settings. I will have a new set of ch controllers for Xmas so I am sure this info will help out alot when I go to set up the yoke and throttle quardrant.Again thanks.

Shutting down reverse thrust is definitely important.  I did a backfkip on the runway in the king air when I didn't do that quickly enough.  :-/
