jedikwon: Hello.

In Falcon 3.0, whenever I place my physical joystick throttle to the lowest position aircraft power goes to zero, obviously.

After that, the game does not take my throttle movement. I must press keyboard = to power up little bit and then throttle works again.

So while I play the game, I really have to be careful not to move the throttle to the lowest position or near there to avoid the issue above.

Have you guys ever experienced that? Any solution you want to share?

Thanks!

RichNagel: Sorry to dig up this old thread, but I'm wondering the same thing. IIRC this has always happened, I've played Falcon 3.0 all the way back to 1992 and have always had this issue. Is it by design?

darkenedroom: I think this by design if you drop the throttle to 0 it turns off the engine. I think it does this for a throttle controller or keyboard, so when flying you probably don't want to drop it below 20%. On the ground you have to be a fraction over 40% before you have enough power to taxi!
