These green lines are your deadband range for the detent. As long as the blue bar is between them, the throttle reads this as the corresponding detent (in this case, Reverse Idle). If you move the throttle outside these green bars, they become gray as you now no longer are in the corresponding detent.

As some controllers might be at a lower or higher value than - 0.50 and even the same controller might sometimes have slightly different values although in the same position, the deadband of 0.05 ensures that small differences in actual values are treated as within a valid range for the IDLE position. In this case all values from - 0.55 to - 0.45 are valid IDLE positions. You can enlarge the deadband by increasing the value above the "Set From Throttle" button. Currently, this is 0.05 - set it as required, which will move the green lines down/up. Congratulations! You have successfully calibrated your TCA Throttle! Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle If this is not the case, you can find out which controller axis is used by your controller by using the Sensitivity dialog and moving the lever to see which axis is moving. The HOTAS WARTHOG Dual Throttles’ deadly weapon is known as T.A.R.G.E.T (Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor). T.A.R.G.E.T is a software suite allowing users to test, configure and program Thrustmaster controllers.If you have trouble hitting the detents with the keyboard, you might have an old configuration which has detents defined that are smaller than the 0.05 button stroke step size. To fix this, you either: In this example, we have set the dead zone to 0.25 on either side of the actual setting. For FLX and TO GA, you can use 0.10 or 0.15. Don't worry whether the throttle does move all the way or moves too far into reverse now. Only the movement direction is important at this point. 4. Reverser Setup (when not on axis) Tension screw (accessible via underside of throttle’s base): adjust the S.M.A.R.T mechanism’s resistance to suit your taste

As described above, we go through all detents and set the values accordingly with Set From Throttle. The easiest way to do that is by having the flyPad in a separate window next to the throttle, as in the screenshot below. Do not change the deadband if not necessary and also never set a value too large as deadband ranges must not overlap! 4. Start With Full Reverser (or Idle)Notice that the blue bar correspondents to the current throttle position and is between two green lines. The green lines mark your deadband range for the detent. As long as the blue bar is between them, the throttle reads this as the corresponding detent. If your throttle is outside these green bars, they become gray as you no longer are in the corresponding detent. For the detents CL, FLX and TO GA, you can increase the dead zone to make it easier to move your throttle into the detents. Congratulations! You can use the keyboard for throttle control! Keyboard Special Mapping Keyboard Special Mapping The Xbox-Controller (or any other game controller) is very similar to controlling the throttle with the keyboard. It uses buttons to increase and decrease the throttles. Your controller needs to have an axis which can be used as a throttle lever. This axis needs to be mapped to the throttle input of Microsoft Flight Simulator. Most controllers will be mapped automatically by Microsoft Flight Simulator in the default profile.

This configuration is meant for users who are comfortable finding and changing setting-files manually. Flight controllers are not compatible with games in CLOUD GAMING or STREAMING mode (in particular those in GAME PASS, Xbox Remote Play, PlayStation®Plus, GeForce NOW, Luna, …). In CLOUD GAMING or STREAMING mode, only standard gamepads are compatible.

We recommend to also map a button to set the throttles to IDLE during landing. This can be done by mapping the THROTTLE CUT function to a controller button.

If your throttle does not have a range for the reverser, there are two ways to activate and simulate reverser with buttons. How to Set Up Reverser: Controller With a Separate Button or Key You can use these default values for the Bravo throttle. See Manual Configuration on how to do this. Another solution is to simply delete the current configuration file (as described in the next chapter) and start over your configuration from default values. We start the detent calibration with the lowest throttle setting. How to Calibrate: Controllers With Reverser on AxisAlternatively, you can use TOGGLE THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST to use a button or key to activate reverse thrust. While this is active, you can push the throttle forward to increase reverse thrust. To deactivate reverse thrust, you need to press the mapped key/button again. Set all sensitivity settings to 0 %. This includes Sensitivity + and -, Dead Zone, Neutral, and Extremity Dead Zone. Leave Reactivity at 100 %. How to Set Sensitivity to Linear The step size for F2 and F3 is 0.05. This results in 40 steps in total from Full Reverse to TO/GA. The CLB detent is right in the middle at 20 steps. Set Reverser on Axis to ON if your throttle has a range for the reverser thrust (lowest setting is full reverse).
