  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

Thrustmaster TCA Throttle Oddity

When we go from Idle to full throttle there is a momentary stop of the throttles in the SIM ( not the quadrant ) at 50% for no more than a second and then it continues on towards full thrust . Checking the quadrant's actions in settings you do see a hesitation when moving the throttles. Stopped paying attention to it long ago but I'm now curious if anybody else with this peripheral has experience the same concern.

Sounds like there's a dead zone set up in the controller's function. Assuming you're not on a Xbox, go to the Start menu and open joy.cpl to pull up the controller properties. You should be able to control the dead zones from there. You can also set up dead zones in the sim's controller section, so check there too.
 
Tom , your the best ! Went to the Sim's controller section and sure enough the dead zone's were at "9" @#$!: Maybe I did something to the settings way back when, who cares !
Once again thanks for the suggestions.
