ISSUE DESCRIPTION

It doesn’t happen on every flight and typically occurs either at the start or when coming into land. I don’t have an issue at all with MSFS 2020 so the issue is not my flightstick.

I found the cause of the issue. My button to extend flaps is next to the one I have to toggle reverse thrust. Turns out that sometimes when extending the flaps I also managed to toggle the reversers on which in turn I found stopped the throttle from working with my flightstick.

Moved to User Support Hub since user setup related, not a bug.
