i am not being able to go into reverse thrust with the ATR by using the Honeycomb Bravo throttle.
there is a very useful guide provided by Marc from SimHanger but although i am following all steps provided in this tutorial, i cannot go into reverse thrust.
I would like to share some screenshots showing my current settings
the only way i can see the the levers go into reverse (also in the PDF i can se the REV-REV) is by clicking the “throttle hardware has a reverser axis” in the tablet settings but as soon i do this the idle position in my Honeycomb turns suddenly into reserve!

Make sure you follow his guide to a T. If I remember correctly you have to go back to the throttle cut assignment and make sure “on release” is selected since it won’t stick unless you save it “on press” first then go back and change it.
i also look for the latest driver for Honeycomb and i just installed the V2100 which is the latest but the throttle decrease bottom does not seems to work at all
I have noticed that since the ATR update that the throttles do not drop down below the detent and the reverser tabs no longer move. However, reverse thrust stil works, but is not controlable.
The reverser animation also does not actuate visually using the mouse/controller in cockpit. F1 and F2 work as intended, but similarly there’s no reverse tab or throttle movement below the idle position.
If you go to Mark’s SimHanger on Youtube, you’ll find comments going back though the last 4 days that highlight this new problem. He’s aware and looking into it.
I just cleared all of Mark’s throttle button settings and instead assigned button 25 and 26 to ‘Toggle Throttle Reverse Thrust’. Works fine. Give it a try. I guess they may have simplified it for Xbox users.
For the Bravo, this only “kind of” works. Moving the throttles into the reverse range (aka buttons 24 and 25) just “toggles” the thrust reverse on. You can see the TR locks move up. But, this still requires advancing the throttles forward (which the animated throttles then move backwards). Too bad the “decrease throttle” doesn’t work anymore.
This is kinda funny to me. Same with the DC-6 behavior - map Toggle Reverse Thrust, then you need to move them forward, but the animation moves them backwards.
Reason it’s funny is because before I knew how reverse thrust worked in a turbofan aircraft, I thought this was exactly how it was in real life - move the throttles into the reverse detent, and then move them up to spool the engines up in reverse.
I was so disappointed when I found out real-life aircraft don’t require that muscle, that beefy push forward to slow down. I totally had it backwards but I’m having a blast flying these aircraft (ATR and DC-6) that force you to do it the wrong way, because in my head this always seemed so cool
