Thanks for the input.. but to be honest.. I do not hava any intention to use foxy anymore. Since stick and throttle work just fine in DX there should be a BMS like soloution in DCS too i think.

Ha damn, the video is no longer available.

I still see the picture for the throttle axis tuning, but it's just for setting a dead-zone for the idle/idle-cutoff position and find AB notch ?
Actually, i use a 5% dead-zone and a +9 curve, and it works... correctly. Not perfect, but not that bad.

You suggest to use foxy to add a button for "clicking" the idle position (DX button), when throttle is lower than 5%, is that correct ?
I think i will just use a button then.. I don't want to mess up my Falcon/cockpit configuration  :taz:
Previously, i used a combinaison of 3 buttons in foxy for the Idle detent (pinky+cursor enable+uncage). But i don't remember how to do this anymore  :digger:

Regarding modifying curves for the AB position :
With the new update, DCS added 2 settings for MAX/AB in the throttle axis tuning. But i don't understand it, and i can't see any difference. Maybe it's working for other aircraft but not yet the F16 ?

It's unbelievable those primary concerns aren't still taken seriously in DCS for 15 years..
I mean... after having a joystick with a throttle axis, the first thing you want to set is the AB notch, even with a cheap joystick..

Tooo easy.. you have to play with the curves for hours... until something on the axis changes.. then you can start at 0 :D
