I can’t reproduce the problem you mention but if I can give you a screenshot of what you should see: if you see it in my debug screen, when my throttle is 0, n1 is 24 (matches the UI and the needle), N2 is 65,% which matches 65% of 13428rpm = 8730rpm. The values are correct. Where does your 20% come from?
Is it possible you have autothrottle enabled?
It would not be flying, in any case it would be gliding according to the best glide speed of the F-14, (between 200 and 220 knots if I am not wrong). An airplane can glide when it maintains a correct angle that balances lift / drag. the moment you start to maneuver you would lose lift since in idle there would not be enough thrust to compensate
CodenameJack and LameLefty are correct, you’re not flying at that airspeed, you’re gliding. I also sometimes see throttle flicker at idle and max afterburner, seems to just be a slight calibration issue on my throttle rather than anything to do with the airplane itself.
For landing, you’d need spoilers and DLC deployed in the F-14A, just DLC in the F-14B, otherwise your landing speed would indeed be about 200 knots. All in the manual 
Sorry guys, it’s just the way I said: I cannot pull back the Throttle (see picture). It sticks at 18.2%- If I use the Yoke Quadrant I can pull back to 0%. Same with the mouse. It is an X52 issue and only with the F14. When I push full throttle, the the levers go nuts flipping back and forward within milliseconds and the afterburner turns on and off all the way… I do not find a solution. The plane is unflyable…
May i ask if you have any AI assist on?
No AI on piloting or AC systems
That’s pretty much the same I have. Thanks for your help.
I try to upload a small video (less than 3MB) but the upload filter keeps telling it is to big (greater than 4MB)…
Here we go (sorry for bad quality)
Sounds like a potentiometer issue or something like that but you have said it only happens with this plane so is really weird. If lamelefty is going to test it with its x52 maybe we can clear up unknowns of what is happening
Thanks for the explanations about the 200 knots-thing… I just made my first successful landing with nice 130kt on touchdown with DLC activated 
Looks like you have duplicated inputs for Throttle control, 2 controllers with Throttle assigned in both maybe?
Get’s even more weird. The lever is now stuck on 7% 
Got it !!! Thanks guys for your input! I had the afterburner on/off enabled to the Throttle control. I guess that was once necessary for the F18 or so… disabled and everthing works fine.
Thanks so much!! I go no Playing with the boys in the Danger Zone until my breath is takern away Happy flying!
Glad this got sorted!
I did manage a short test flight tonight in the A model and had no trouble. After starting from cold & dark, the cockpit levels are fully retracted and don’t exhibit any jitter. Externally, the HUD shows the LVR’s are set to Idle, with the engine N1 speed of 24%.
A tiny bit of thrust to taxi into takeoff position, the external HUD shows the LVRs set to THR (e.g… Thrust)
During the takoff, with the throttle shoved full-forward, the display properly indicates FULL AB, with no jitter on my system:
Pulling back just a bit after takeoff, the display has changed to simply AB:
And pulling back a bit more deactivates afterburner, and the display changed to MIL (Military Power; full-thrust without afterburner):
Back on the ground after landing, with spoilers deployed and braking to a stop, the engines again reduced to IDLE:
To quote a period-appropriate young John Connor from Terminator 2: “No problemo!” 
This was also my first Tomcat flight since I received my new Logitech/Saitek rudder pedals. Sure makes taxiing and braking a LOT easier. I need to get more used to them for controlling yaw during cross-wind takeoffs and landings, but that’s why I bought them - just gotta practice. 
A few images of the new Tomcat liveries being included with the forthcoming update - these include dirtied-up liveries and also an F-14B that carried the famous “Jolly Rogers” scheme, VF-103, so that console users have some extra variety. Update is underway and will be released after the F-15 updates, sometime in Q1 2022. Cockpits will also be getting some visual improvements.
( Some of the liveries are by “DeathActual”, a very talented artist whom I struck a deal with to include his work with the official package )
Awesome !
Will they have smoke like the F16 or not ?
May i suggest a slight thickening in the wing tips contrails effects? I apologize if i am going more than i can chew on this
No smoke for them, the F-14s never carried smoke generators. However, they will have transonic vapor cones and G-vapor over the wings, and I think that the effects for the wing tip contrails have already been improved but will have to check with my effects guy about that.
