Hi all,

This might be a stupid question, but I was wondering if anyone would know if there is a key combo for reverse thrust for the engines.

Many times when I am landing jets, I need to pause the simulation in order to pull up the engine panel window to apply reverse thrust so that I can slow the plane down in time.

I would find it much easier if I knew of a key(s) which could apply the reverse thrust.

Thanks in advance.
Lev.

Hi Leviathan

For Reverse thrust it is F2 key press and hold down if you out side aircraft you see that you will see engines will go into Reverse thrust.

Hello Leviathan

Of course you can change the key in another one more convinient.
Or,if you use the wonderful Saitek X52 (Pro), you can use the throttle unit to revers the engines.

Hey Scotty,

Can that be applied to the standard X52 or just the Pro version?
If it can be used for both, how would that be done?

Hello Leviathan!

It is also possible with the X52.You have to use the Saitek Software,which was on the installation disc,too .It would be too hard for me, as a german,to explain that to you here in the forum.
But, honestly said,it is quite easy,if you read the software manual carefully. Idea

So long,

Scotty
