Fenix A320 reverses with honeycomb

FelipeTurbay · May 21, 2022, 1:38pm

Hello guys, i am having trouble when setting the reversers in the honeycomb bravo throttle. Normally i use “Throttle 1 decrease” and “Throttle 2 decrease” but this not seems to work on the Fenix. Is there a special way to set these?

Thanks!

This worked for me on my Bravo.

So to activate reverse you just pull up the reverse buttons, it will go into reverse detent…then you move the throttle forward and it will go into reverse.

I have my Warthog throttles set so that max reverse is at the bottom of the travel, the idle reverse a little way up, idle above that and the rest of the detents above that, as the real throttles work.

That means that the physical throttle’s idle (zero) position has to be mapped as max reverse, which will perhaps necessitate getting some way of implementing physical detents on the bravo, to make it easier to use, but they’ll probably be on their way, if someone hasn’t already done them.

Edit: Just to clarify, all of my currently defined detents sit on the axis bit of the travel of the throttle levers and i do not use the buttons at the very bottom of the travel.

Oh, and I’ve just ordered a 3d print of an A320 insert for the warthog, that will provide physical detents for all but TO/GA and Max Reverse, for which the stops will fully forward and fully back respectively.

For bravo users, it might be worth searching around or even contacting the guy who makes the current bravo detent insert system, to see if the reverse detents might be added.

Edit: Just by way of an update, my TM Warthog throttle detents insert was delivered a couple of days ago and it works a treat. It makes it so much easier to find the right positions, for each of the 6 detents.
