Brief description of the issue:
Once the TQ6 2 prop rpm levers are properly assigned to the Propeller 1 & 2 axis, they move correctly inside the ATR, except once you move the levers out of their Fuel Shut Off position, you can never go back to that position, even if using the mouse.
In order for the ATR prop axis to work properly I have to unassigned them from my TQ6 and use the mouse.

Hello @thecalvrsimer,
Please edit your title to include which ATR tag in the tag field #atr-42 or #atr-72
Thank you!
I have this issue in the 72. I haven’t tried the 42. Why is the condition lever axis not used for this plane? Wouldn’t that be better?
I have the same issue. If there is any input on the prop axis once, there is no way to put the levers in shutoff position. It seems like 0% input is the feather position, but not shut off. So if I want to fly the ATR properly, i need to unbind the prop axis first

So apparently we can keep our assignments, we just have to add two extra key bindings to TOGGLE FEATHER SWITCH 1 & 2. But in order for those two key bindings to work we have to have the two levers in their reverse position before using the short keys!
Not a very elegant and practical way of using our 2 prop RPM levers if you ask me. They simply should work as intended!
Hopefully the 05/09 update release will address those issues among others, such as VNAV being unusable at the moment!

Well it doesn’t work for me as I have a VF TQ6 throttle quadrant which doesn’t have any buttons. In addition, they are NOT prop levers, they are condition levers. Why on earth wouldn’t Hans use the condition lever axes which (presumably) were developed by Asobo for EXACTLY that purpose.

Yes, me too I have the same VF TQ6, but you need to assign those two key bindings to keys on your keyboard or anything that has buttons. So cumbersome!!!
Not really practical in VR either.

The condition levers need to be in the feather position which actually makes sense. Reverse is on the power levers.

When I press ESC to Pause, the Condition Levers move to the Auto position and remain there. They can no longer be moved with the mouse.

I have these problems with the Saitek/Logitech throttles. If I start with the saiteks back fully, they start with the CLs in cutoff. But when the throttles are moved forward, they pop up to AUTO on their own. When taken to The Notch, the CLs go to 100%.
The real problem is that when power is reduced, the throttles can come back below ground idle and then the CLs come back to feather and the AC wild busses go unpowered. No Brakes! I roll off the end of the runway. It’s also impossible to taxi without the CLs in AUTO for same reason, no brakes! This is untenable.
I can’t see anything in the Controls page about props or condition levers at all. I think the Saiteks may be unusable for the ATR.

all download is ok, unable to move 0 - 100 % on throttle and condition/mixture handle ( but the prop handle actionned instead of). very weird that my saitek pro flight worked with other aircraft but not with ATR 72-600.
Saitek profile for Throttle quadrant are ok for both left and right; FSUIPC also have axes ok and I added 2 Flight Throttle Quadrant Profile: Left and Right to match my saitek pro flight quadrant and axex are moving on axis Y and X.
finally fix them with new profile…

Yes, once I’ve moved them up from the initial position (Fuel S.O.) I can’t get them back.

The workaround is to map a button / switch on the peripheral to the Condition Lever 1 / 2 Fuel Shut Off command:
