Mouse throttle control...

Postby avoidz » Tue May 12, 2009 8:03 am

Hi, I've forgotten how to move both throttles simultaneously with the mouse in virtual cockpit mode.

Can someone remind me how to do this, please?

Cheers :)

Far as I know you can't.  Each one can only be moved seperatly.

With the dual Throttles, Prop, and Mixture Levers I position my mouse pointer between the two levers and drag them up or down together.

For the throttles: Press Control and "E"....then "1" and "2" together quickly.
This combines the two levers together.

Tip: To combine all the throttle levers together...

Press CTRL + E, then 1+2+3+4 together, depending on the number of engines!
This will combine the throttles if they get separated for any reason.

Thanks, I'll try that.
