SPAD.NEXT and Logitech throttle quadrant

EZYTWIV

Hi all,

I've been browsing this forum but can't seem to find the answer.

How do I get my Logitech TQs to work with the latest 146 Pro MSFS?

I have cleared all MSFS engine thrustlever inputs and deinstalled the Logitech MSFS plugin because apparently that could conflict with SPAD. But whichever throttle axis definition I try in SPAD, the 146 levers won't move.

Thanks for any help.

I don't use SPAD.NXT myself so I wouldn't be able to help with setting it up in the program, but from an LVAR perspective the following LVARs control the throttle animation:

PED_MID_ENG1_THROTTLE
PED_MID_ENG2_THROTTLE
PED_MID_ENG3_THROTTLE
PED_MID_ENG4_THROTTLE

And the following LVARs control the throttle latch position (from FUEL ON to FUEL OFF):

PED_MID_ENG1_LATCH
PED_MID_ENG2_LATCH
PED_MID_ENG3_LATCH
PED_MID_ENG4_LATCH

Hope that helps.

Thank you, I'll report back once I have tried this.

I have been trying for several hours to make the thrustlevers work with these LVARs but although I do get some sort of movement the thrustlevers seem to jump straight back to the position I have put them at in the virtual cockpit with the mouse. I have made sure that there are no double axis assignments in MSFS2020 or SPAD.NEXT.

I did notice that there are actually three LVAR variants available once MSFS2020 is running:
e.g.
PED_MID_ENG1_THROTTLE
PED_MID_ENG1_THROTTLE_il
PED_MID_ENG1_THROTTLE_SHAFT_VC

Any more suggestions would be very much appreciated.
