Heya,
What do you mean Navigraph mod? Just the sub (which I have) or is there an actual mod I can install?
Thanks for all the hard work you put into this btw, it has helped me a lot.

Small addendum:
Unfortunately, Microsoft/Asobo has to do some more work here. I noticed the following:
- If you connect the quadrant as āENG3&4ā, then the MSFS also recognizes it as an input device, but not directly as a Thrustmaster quadrant. You can configure everything, but things like the sensitivity of the thrust controllers is not taken over. This is not a problem, since you can adjust it yourself, but it still does not work in the Boeing 747. Apparently, the MSFS treats the quadrant somewhat differently than standard devices.
Example:
Here I have both quadrants, so all 4 controls in the āidleā position. As you can see, this works for 1&2, but for 3&4 it is already at 50% reverse.
You can see that the MSFS does not recognize the quadrant as a quadrant, because, for example, the image in the setting is also missing and the buttons have no designation.
āButton 1ā for example is only called ā1ā.
Iāll try to do this myself with the sensitivity settings.
And one more thing, but MSFS canāt do anything about it:
To go into reverse on landing, you need 2 hands 
!
Yeah, this is what I was wondering considering how wide the throttles are. I had a few practice reverse thrust, where my index and middle fingers on the engine 1&2 latch, and my ring and pinky fingers on the imaginary non-existent engine 1&3 latch. And Iām just a bit worried that my fingers canāt unlock all of them at the same time with one hand.
yes, this does not seem well thought out by Thrustmaster. Either you take out the lock - which I find unfavorable, or you need a co-pilot. Also not so easy.
I will solve it like this now: I will connect 1 and 2 with the rod. 3 and 4 too. Then I will take out the blocking at 1 and 4. I canāt think of anything else right now.
Hello, excuse my English.
I have a problem. If I configure the quadrant for small aircraft, without sensitivity curves, only 50% of the lever remains functional. It only works from 50% to 100% of the lever. Do they have the same problem?
Thank you.
I would suggest you duplicate the quadrant profile into a separate profile for other aircrafts. you can set the bindings and sensitivity curve for that separate profile. You have to use the sensitivity curve though, since the throttleconfig.ini is only useful for the A32NX mod and it wonāt apply to any other aircraft.
The only hassle is that you need to keep switching different profiles depending on which aircraft youāre flying.

I did it like that. a new profile, but only the 50 to 100% lever works. I think it is a bug in the new version of flight simulator.
I think you need to rebind the throttle from Throttle Engine Axis (0-100%) to just use the Throttle Engine Axis. Without the 0-100%. Try it.
ok when iām home iāll try it. I will tell you the result.
I have the Airbus TCA and the Honeycomb Bravo Throttle .( niceeeeeeeeeeee! ) ā¦ I couldāt resist aswell

To separate the whole thing with the general topics of the controller, I opened a new thread. But was closed by the moderators because double and got a warning. Lol.
Nothing is better than the VIER IM POTT A320 Closed Shell for maximum realism. But I donāt think thatās compatible with MSFS 2020ā¦
thanks! work perfect with axis without 0-100%. What is the difference? Why does stock is with 0-100?
Since I didnāt get the TCA Addon , I use the AP / Gear lever/ Flaps lever / Spoiler lever/ Switches / Trim wheel from the Honeycomb and the Thrustmaster TCA for Thrust / Engine Switches / Ignition ā¦ works nice together without issues.
Honeycomb it compatible with MSFS and already integrated ā¦ if the so called AFC Bridge is downloaded from the Honeycomb site , also the LED indication ist working. There are some issues, but simhanger made a nice youtube video, how to resolve this. Bravo Throttle LED LIGHTS Configuration Guide | Microsoft Flight Simulator | Honeycomb Aeronautical - YouTube
And of course using the Honeycomb for P3D ( PDMGās) and X-Plane ā¦ also for the MSFS2020 747 ( but if you know PDMGā¦ the MSFS2020 747 is rather" dull" in comparison )
Itās different in terms of how the sim interpret those throttle values. 0-100 is used for throttles with reversers in the single quadrant. Useful for airliners. Small aircrafts tend to not have reversers on the same throttle control. So you canāt use the 0-100.
In other words. 0-100 includes reversers between 0-20, which makes the idle point somewhere in the middle. regular throttle Axis idles at idle position.
For throttle quadrant that doesnāt have reversers, it uses the normal throttle axis.

Is there any chance that Thrustmaster fixes the landing gear switch? Is it even possible with a firmware update since that would theoretically change a bunch of button numbers? Iāve tried all the Gear options(I mainly fly the CJ4) and they completely bug out the landing gear when I use the switch. Very disappointing.
Even using Set Gear? Iām inclined to have a similar idea to the way it handles the NORM switch. The norm switch is like the gear down switch. It doesnāt have any virtual buttons to bind. So maybe using the same wayā¦ like
SET GEAR to the gear up lever, then
GEAR UP to the gear up lever.
If that doesnāt work, try
SET GEAR with GEAR DOWN both bound to the same gear up lever.
Iām usually pretty good at trial and errors and make things work. Thatās how I discovered the missing step in the calibration of the throttle, as well as the calibration of the spoilers and flaps despite that I donāt have the addon myself. But for this landing gear, I do need to wait until I can get my hands on it so I can do proper investigation and analysis with it. Until then, a guess is the only thing I can provide.

Yeah, I tried set Gear. Iāll give your suggestion a shot and see if it works. Seems like they didnāt game test these things at all.
Lol, thrustmaster gave us misleading instructions to properly calibrate the hardwareā¦ I wouldnāt expect that much from them.
