    Hi!

    If there's one thing I miss from XPlane its the axis configuration...

    I have a VirtualFly TQ6+, yes I'm spoiled. But maybe not in this case. It's a 6 lever TPM module with fixed detents. Behind that detent is a little bit of axis, maybe 10% or so.

    In the Caravan when I come back past the detent, it goes in to reverse a little tiny bit and no more. The first 15% of the FORWARD axis is used for Beta and I get that, that's all cool. I just get a bit of a dead reverser. It's hard to describe so hopefully that makes sense.

    Any ideas gratefully received!.

      @Jiblet For what it's worth, I just discovered this is also the case with my HC Bravo. The culprit may be the curve I've applied to match beta with the detent notch on the King Air addon handles I use. Unfortunately I don't have time to test it until tomorrow (maybe), but I wanted to let you know you're not alone in this.

        I have the same throttles. And while they are good, I find that they cause more issues with configuration then they are worth. I am still trying to find that balance between VFHUB configuration and MSFS configuration. However, I don't think either are really going to work. I already opened a ticket with VF, but the only reply I got was for someone else's ticket. Not exactly impressed.

        I might try and learn mobi-flight as I don't own axis and o's. Will update if I make any headway.

          Another TQ6+ user here. They work really well for me. If at all, the 208 goes too hard into beta when I use it after touchdown.
