question about my aviator

Postby firemonte007 » Wed Feb 13, 2008 4:28 pm

i just got the saitek aviator the other day... i loaded up the default DC-3 and the B-25 in FS9... when i went to taxi i ran both throttle joysticks up but only the left engine would rev up, i checked the calibration and its set perfect through out, i then when into joystick assignments and tried assiging throttle joystick #2 to engine throttle 2, but this did not change anything, only engine 1 would rev up, so i went back into the assignments and twice to try to assign it to engine 3 and engine 4 (not at the same time) but it still didnt work.

The left throttle is the Z axis and the right throttle is the slider.
    I have tried to assign the slider (right throttle) to other things like flaps and stuff but FS9 does not recognize the slider but only the z axis.
In other words, the slider is totally useless in FS9 unless a tweak is set in somewhere which I do not know if such thing even exists.


You can use the seperate throttles in FSX though. ;) ;D
