    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

ATR 42/72 Logitec Throttle problem

Bushpounder

SOH-CM-2026
Is anyone else having problems using a Logitec throttle (the one with three levers and three buttons - USB powered) on the new ATRs? When I configure mine, it all goes well until the throttle is retarded to the stop detent, which it bypasses and goes into reverse. I have tried everything I know of to get it to not do that, but it is useless. Also, when shutting down, I can't! I cannot cut the fuel to the engines. I can move the levers forward and aft, but cannot press the cut off buttons. Any fixes, or anyone else having this problem? First plane in this sim to give me a problem. I have used this throttle for years now, and never had a problem using it. Love the plane, but need to fly it improperly until I get these two items resolved. I did post the the MS forum, but who knows what that will do. Thanks for any help.

Select NO reverse on Throttle- then calibrate stops/notches... all in the EFB.

Prop axis controls Condition, but you need Feather 1 and Feather 2 for Cutoff- not worth it to me- my Turboprop profile uses NO axis- and I use the mouse.

YMMV

Thanks, Carl. I will try that. I can live w/o reverse, but would like to have it. Can't understand why this is the only one I have run into that acts like this. I appreciate the help.

Don-

Once the above is sorted- add F1 (with slow repeat) and F2 to buttons and you will have reverse working also.
