So, I left my pedals unplugged and only had the yoke plugged in. - There are zero mappings to either flaps or throttles from the yoke. I even removed the mappings for ailerons and elevator, - didn’t help either.
What’s interesting is when I unplug the yoke, everything goes back to 100% normal, and even the engine switches no longer do the visible double-tripping I mentioned in the other thread.
Then I can Esc/Esc all day long and all the control positions remain solid.
But as I’m plugging the yoke back in, throttles will sometimes jerk momentarily for a split second, then go back to their true position. And I’ve seen at least once how the flaps lever jumped from its true position to Flaps 2, yet this was not while plugging in the yoke, but within a few seconds.
Man, what a royal mess!
