CH throttle
hello,
only in MSFS2020, pushing the CH throttle levers, they do not reach 100% in the sim, after being assigned to throttle/propeller/mixture: when pushed to their limit, FS2020 handles reach values of 88% and, to have 100%, I must use the mouse to slide the handles forward

I don't know what to do, because they work correcly into P3D 4.5 and 5

thanks for help

Just tried to set up my CH Stick and Throttle and all I got was a crash out of FS 2020. Hoping I can figure it out as purchasing newer hardware is not in the cards. CH hardware has always worked in the past for many games/sims.

I'm using CH Pro Pedals right now, no issue.

Hi.

I have the same CH Throttle and the same issue... first I tough it was a bad calibration... but I can see others suffers the same issue....

it looks like to me that mixture has issues beyond the CH axes response: even interacting with the mouse, it does not behave like I was used with i.e. Milviz and A2A products

So, I'm new here...does STEAM ever reply to any of these posts (problems). or is simply left up to the community to figure out problems?

Why would Steam reply? They're just the storefront.. they have nothing to do with the developement of the game.

Same issue with x56 throttle, though only in certain planes. Recalibrated throttle, even reset NVRAM and did a whole hardware recalibration. Works fine in the stick software, works fine in every other game, appears to have a weird 5% deadband at the top of the throttle that goes from approximately 95% to 50% in the last couple degrees of foward movement.

The game also holds onto the throttle after closing, so when attempting to load other simulators that use the x56 controls the throttle is unresponsive until a complete shutdown of the steam client so it kills whatever processes are left over from FS2020. It's a little upsetting a company can't make a game function properly with it's own operating system.

my bodnar controller also doesnt go to 0 or 100 it starts at arounf 15% and goes up to 90%. i cant use the levers for fuel cutoff or full prop rpm

Hi guys.
Hope am not telling you stuff you already know here. I have CH setup and my throttle does give 100% in the sim. This is the bit which you probably already do know but if you don't it might help. If you use CH control manager software to calibrate the throttle you will see if you move the axis to full back and full forward when asked to in the calibration process this does not give you full range after you click "apply". You only get full range (as far as I am aware) by not quite going to full forward or full back when calibrating. Basically leave a little gap at either end. Your mileage may vary on how big a gap to leave but if I don't do this I don't get full range period.

Also, if I disconnect any of my CH stuff I lose the calibration, well apart from the pedals for some weird reason. It caught me out in this sim because I turned my hub off and found I wasn't getting full throttle.

Anyway, as I said you probably know that already.

I had to go into Control Manager and calibrate before the game would see my full throttle range.
