Description of the issue:
In 2020 single engine turbo prop reverse thrust is configured in this manner for the Turtlebeach quad:
Throttle1 axis: Slider Y
Button 11 used for reverse thrust, on press: throttle1 decrease, on release throttle1 cut
In 2020 Twin Engine Turboprop:
Set Throttle2 to slider and button, same onpress / onrelease
Outcome: Reducing the axis slider then engaging the bottom detente, reverses the turboprop no problem
Setting it up in the same manner in 2024 doesn’t work the same way, in fact, it is completely different - some may say more realistic but I say may be broken:
Firt time use, slider reduced to 0, detente applied sets up reverse thrust however, one has to move slider up to increase throttle but, looking at the simulation, throttle 1 moves up for more power while throttle 2 moves down again.
Leaving the slider in the detente position will reverse the props but will not increase the throttle. Perhaps the intent was to simulate a Beta switch type reverse thrust like in the 2020 version of the FSR500 but it was not fully understood or implemented. Throttle 2 does not behave the same way as Throttle 1 in the simulation.
The workaround is to go through the reverse thrust procedure twice to restore / re-synchronise the Throttle 1 and 2 directions.
I tried different versions of the king air, they all work the same buggy way in 2024 but work perfectly well in 2020.
