Both 530 and 407 engine won't return to full RPM after reduction

[butchkravitz]

I've posted this question before regarding the 530; and, after purchasing the 407, I notice it's doing the same thing.
WTH?!? Doesn't help practicing auto rotation if I have to reset the sim each time because engine RPM gets stuck in the mid-range.

How are you controlling the throttle?

Thank you for your reply.

I have the MaxFlightStick control set. Collective lever is mapped as Throttle, twist grip is mapped as Prop. So far, I have not been able to find any workable button mappings (via those included in P3D V4.5 nor in your MVAMS) for Engine Start and Governor Up and/or Down; and, twist grip settings for Ground Idle Stop and Cutoff.

I can hear a "click" when I reduce the twist grip from full (only slightly less than full..), and RPM drops to what seems like the Idle RPM; so, I'm assuming that's the Idle switch? How do I set those respective "locations" in the twist grip's rotate range properly?

Asking one of the developers for feedback as there is nothing in the documentation on the buttons your looking for.

This product does not have any way to adjust the axis Ground idle stop or cutoff that I can find either.

Hello , I wish I had a controller like that but don't so I cant test the issues that are described , that said there are a number of our clientele who are using these with FSUIPC and use a list of offsets to rig their buttons and switches , I included a list found at the following link but there are a number of similar posts with relevant suggestions on how they set up their systems controllers .

We can help track down specific variable assignments for you , I know of commercial users who have similar installations running with great success, and I believe one of our FDE specialists had been involved , he may well be able to weigh in on the subject if my recollections are correct .
