Description of the issue: When I load the Talon Cold and Dark (from the ramp) the throttles automatically move to 100% and regardless of position, remain stuck at 100%. Also, the throttles cannot be set to the cutoff position, they snap out of it immediately. If I start the aircraft, the afterburners activate and the aircraft ultimately breaks free of the parking brake. If I slew into the air, the throttles move to 0% on their own and cannot be changed.
If I start from the runway, this problem does not exist and the throttle works as expected.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? 100% of the time
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
Choose the Talon
Choose a parking spot as a starting location at any airport
Enter the cockpit and observe the throttles

I can try that, though it would beg the question why it works fine with the regular Throttle 1 and Throttle 2 axis if I start it on the runway, just not when I start it cold and dark.
I got it! It’s hard to really explain but I reactivated all of my peripherals, throttle was still broken. Went into the control profiles and reset keyboard and the throttle quadrant, no change. My Xbox controller is connected to the same USB hub as everything else, so it’s been deactivated a few times as part of this test but I thought screw it, maybe I’ll reset that. Instead I just clicked it, and suddenly the Xbox light turned on on the controller. I unplugged it, checked the throttle… it’s working! Plug the controller back in, still working. Try all of the original presets I was using, still working. I don’t know what it was, but it’s almost as if that controller was in some weird zombie state in MSFS where I needed to click it to get the sim to communicate with it, and suddenly everything was fine again.
I just double checked and made sure that controller is plugged into the USB hub which I’ve fully unplugged as part of testing, and it is. Something was “stuck” seemingly had had to be “dislodged.”
Bug was on my end, as I figured since no one else was reporting it! I guess in case anyone else encounters this extremely niche issue, they might benefit from my suffering!
Thanks @DementedCorn327 for the suggestion as it led me in the right direction.
I have exactly the same issue but I do not have an xbox controller. I’ve tried no community addons, unplugging and replug all peripherals. Still have exact same issue
I’d still recommend going through and switching to the default profiles for each controller to see if one of them is the culprit. It’s hard to say if it was that or the Xbox controller that ultimately caused the issue for me, though it seemed to be the latter.
strange, it was the bravo throttle. I use the x55 for the T38 but the Bravo is connected. Just cleatred the profile and added a few button commands and T38 seems to work just fine now. Thanx!
