Just F.Y.I. I downloaded the new CRJ today to test FSX with. I find one small problem with the aircraft and CH Throttles Quad. When set up for reverse thrust it shuts the fuel off. Tried thee or four configs trying not to bring the throttles all the way back (to avoid hitting the fuel cut offs) but no matter how I did it I could not stop the fuel cut off switches from being hit. Any fixes in mind or planned.
Also could I get the last version, I can not find when I put the file?

Thanks
Doug

I found the last version in a folder that I have no idea why I put it in there. Computers are our friend.

Which CRJ? Nothing has changed with the -200 and -700.

Cheers!

Doug, there is no way to have the CH throttles do reverse thrust for you, if you are talking about the little check box that says "reverse" when you are configuring it, that just means the controls go the other way. So when the throttle handles are all the way up/forward on the CH throttles, the FSX reads it as 0% power when it is in "reverse" mode.

I only used the 900 in FSX I am unsure about the others in FSX and I am using the elder version in FS9.

Josh with all due respect you can have CH throttles do reverse for you. I have been doing it for years. A quick Google search finds "CMNOTE02.ZIP" on http://www.stickworks.com/. This is not the same document I downloaded many years ago but it does contain the information. I am sure someone will know the document I learned with, it provided visual examples.

I am well aware of what the tick mark does, that is how I have "set up" spoilers and flaps to mimic cockpit views.

And while you are looking at the set up there are three settings "Reverse, Idle, and Max. Theses are not tick boxes and represent settings for reverse thrust, engine idle, and max power.

I am assuming that you are using FSUPIC as this applies to Pete Dowson's software, the registered version as I do not think you can do this in the free versions(s).
