any way to get reverse thrust button on ur joystick throttle.....

[kolkol]

ok i was thinking.....you know how in real life, to get reverse thrust, they pull the throttle "stick" all the way past 0% into the reverse "zone"....is there any way to calibrate your joystick so that 5% is idle thrust, and then when u pull the throttle deely back past that, reverse thrust is engaged....instead of having to press and hold F2?????????

Not with FS9 itself.
You need the registered version of FSUIPC for that, which allows you to map a reverse thrust zone on the thrust axis (like you describe) OR even have a seperate Reverse axis.

Maybe....(untested) you could possibly assign a button to F2?


Just a thought...

Of course you can.
Under Options-Controls-Assignments you can assign a controller button to any FS function; i.c. "Throttle Decrease quickly".
With or without repeat.

I mapped one of my joystick buttons to F2 and had the repeat full. This way, all I have to do is idle thrust and hold the button on the joystick.
