I found the easiest way is to bind it to a button. I don’t have your exact joystick but I have a button bound to TOGGLE THRUST REVERSE. when clicked it puts the in game throttle into the reverse range and I can vary the power using my throttle normally.
-Land
-click reverse button
-advance throttle to desired reverse power level
-upon slowing reduce throttle to idle
-click reverse throttle button again
-throttle comes out of reverse and works normally for taxi
This setup works on turboprops and jets
only thing to look out for I’ve found is if i activate the reverse on an aircraft that doesn’t have reverse like a 172 it locks the throttle at idle which isn’t bad as long as you know(just click the button again) but can be an issue on landing if i pull the throttle to idle to quickly as my button is inline with my throttle.

Sorry, but I have the same stick and there doesn’t appear to be a fix yet. I have to rely on spoilers, medium brakes and nail a landing to get it to slow down. I have tried all the parameters including the suggested Thrustmaster fix (change the parameter from false to true) and that only causes the throttles to always have reverse when in game…i.e. not ideal). I think all the devs and inibuild forgot that there are other controllers other than a Thrustmaster.

Weird rant.
Just bound “TOGGLE THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST” on my gladiator stick. Works perfectly.
