Hello all! Hoping to get some help with my thrustmaster rudder pedals. I’m playing on xbox and have the Airbus side stick with the throttle quadrant and i’ve plugged them in directly to the Quadrant just as the manual says with the ethernet style plug on the front of the quadrant, unfortunately it’s not picking them up at all.. the throttle quadrant isn’t even showing in my controls options for the sim only the sidestick is showing at the top.
Does anyone have any idea of what i should do or know how to fix this?
Exactly the same for me. The Quadrant and the Pedals (TCA TPR pendular rudder) are not shown (XBox X).
I have hooked both the Quadrant and the Pedals into the Sidestick as I’m supposed to and it works quite nicely in FS2020.
Don’t know why nobody responded to this problem as I posted it on quite a few places.
Also MS/Asobo didn’t test this obviously and furthermore it seems very little testing on XBox…if at all.
PS: Also I do have two mice entries along with a keyboard and the stick. Don’t know why that is either…
i’m trying 2020 and 2024 and it’s no different. even in 2024 my quadrant is not registered in the controls menu just like 2020 so i have literally no idea what’s going on, id hate to have to get a refund on all my equipment but its so infuriating the way that these are set up for xbox users. I’m also frustrated that Xbox simmers are labeled as not as important, like i can’t go out and spend 3k on a pc right now it’s just how it is. So to be left on the back burner about all of these products is really insane to me.
Ok. I don’t have your Airbus stick, so this might be different.
I installed 2024 on my Series X and I have the Hotas One and TFRP connected.
The TFRP will not be listed as a separate peripheral.
If I go to Settings > Controls > T. Flight Hotas One and click the “Search by input” button:
• When I move the rudder pedals’ rudder axis it is identified as Joystick Axis 2 and is preassigned to Rudder Axis
• When I press the left toe brake it is identified as Joystick Axis 6 and is preassigned to Left Brake Axis
• When I press the right toe brake it is identified as Joystick Axis 7 and is preassigned to Right Brake Axis
My expectation would be that your quadrant and pedals will behave in a similar fashion — as just more buttons/axis that your stick has under its configuration options.
i’ve tried this and it does not register anything when i move the pedals unfortunately, i appreciate the response though, if you have any other ideas please let me know.
I know 2024 is young, but have you reached out to Thrustmaster?
I wonder if they have any understanding here.
I’d also reach out to Zendesk for MSFS.
Writing up a bug here is frequently akin to repeatedly punching yourself in the face (which, if you go by the sheer volume of bugs I have reported here, I must really love), so I’m not sure doing so is going to get you anywhere — especially not anywhere quickly.
I used to use my Thrustmaster Boeing TCA yoke with the TFRP on my Xbox, too. I will hook those up again to the Xbox and see if they behave. That can’t be all that different to the Airbus setup.
I unfortunately don’t have access to a Windows PC. I have a MacBook Pro and I know that that won’t work to update the drivers for the Rudder pedals. I’ve already reached out to thrustmaster and put in a ticket and they are closed today, but I will be calling them tomorrow to see if they can help me figure it out.
I feel like I’ve done all the work around that I can possibly try. I’ve plugged in the pedals directly to the throttle quadrant with the ethernet style cable, and I’ve also plugged them directly into the flight stick via USB-A. That didn’t work either.
I read online where someone said that their workaround was unplugging the flight stick from the Xbox then booting up Microsoft flight simulator and when you get to the home screen you plug in your USB to the Xbox and it would recognize the Rudders.
That, however, did not work for me.
I’m honestly pretty puzzled by how this doesn’t work and isn’t a fully plug-in play type of ordeal but if they can’t help me tomorrow, I’m definitely going to be asking for a refund.
Do you happen to know of any other Rudder that work with Xbox and don’t have to be connected to the TCA?
side note, i’ve tried this for both 2020 and 2024 and got the same result.
Same for me but there’s one considerable difference for FS2020: even the Quadrant and rudder pedals are not shown explicitly the bindings are there (throttle, rudder, toe brakes etc) and also can be configured for sensitivity, response etc.
In FS2024 both the Quadrant and the Pedals are seemingly non existend.
I am sure they exist, as people on the forum have mentioned them. I’m not sure which brands they are.
I find your scenario pretty strange, I used the Hotas with the TFRP, then the Boeing yoke with 1 throttle quadrant with the TFRP, then the Boeing yoke and 1 quadrant with the fancy and expensive Thrustmaster TPR pedals and, ultimately, the Boeing yoke with 2 throttle quadrants and the TPR pedals all with Xbox.
I cannot understand why your setup doesn’t work. It has me wondering if you have something that is defective.
That’s what I’m thinking too. It seems more like a faulty product more than anything else. I’ve tried to scour the forums to find anybody who’s had the same issue and I can’t find a single person who’s had the same issue as me. Which is really frustrating because it makes me feel like I’m going insane and I’m the one doing something wrong. i’ve literally worked on this for probably the last six or seven hours today. Just trying to figure out what to do. but I definitely know how to set up stuff properly and I’ve double checked triple checked and quadruple checked everything so I’m not really sure what’s going on hopefully thrust Master can give me some answers tomorrow or maybe they just won’t do anything for me at all…(i’ve read that in the forums too)
I’ve read some places that since the throttle quadrant is connected to the flight stick it only shows up on an Xbox as the flight stick and you have to find all the axis through the flight stick in the control center. The throttle quadrant does not appear on Xbox and neither does the Rudder pedals apparently.
So I need to search some more if I can identify the axis and switches within the settings. Basically yes, both the Quadrant and the Pedals don’t show up in FS2020 as a device as well but at least the axis and switches are working and can be configured easily as you have visual references on the sensitivity settings page.
One more thing: in FS2024 I have two mouse entries. Any idea why that is?
i’ve seen where this is a bug as well where people are saying they have two mouse settings. unfortunately with 2024 on Xbox, I go into the sensitivity settings and none of the peripherals are showing up when I move the stick. Everything is bugged out and doesn’t move so I don’t know which axis I’m using. but in 2020 it works perfectly fine so when I plugged in the Rudder pedals and tried to use them in 2020 and looked for the yaw access I found it, but it was only working with the side stick as when I turned it side to side the axis worked, but when I moved the Rudder pedals, they did not work at all.
Same happens here. Everything works fine as far as mapping goes, the quadrant and rudder pedals just don’t appear visually under the list of peripherals
