Virtualfly TQ6+ Throttle quadrant and Axis and Ohs in the piston and turbine Dukes

alehead

Hi,

I am really having problems setting up the hardware levers of my TQ6+ to work properly in the Dukes. The problem is worst with the mixture levers. I get no smooth transition from full rich to cut off, even if I move the hardware assigned lever slowly. It does not move at all and then !bang! all the way down to cut off...
I am sure loads of people are using hardware levers and assigning them with FSUIPC, Spad.next, or AAO...

A video of how to do this would be so helpful.

I have the same equipment and it works as you describe. But I don't know if this is normal

I just tried something in the assignment settings for the axis and hardware lever, changing the rounding from int to float... the value for the LVar is from 0 to 1, so int would force the binary on/off situation. Float avoids that...

I think I might have solved my own problem. I hope my description is enough to assist anyone else with the same issue...

Thanks, I'll try

How did it work out?

Haven't had time to try it yet. Maybe tonight

For the Turbine Duke this is normal. The mixture lever (actually condition lever) has only to options: Full rich and Cut Off.
The Piston Duke should however have a smooth range, though since the engines are turbocharged you can keep the mixture full until the rpm's start to drop at high altitude.
