Title: Reverse thrust
Post by LloydC130 on Aug 1^st, 2011 at 4:43pm

Is there a way to get reverse thrust to work other than reverse the pitch in the VC? I can only move one lever at a time, and as you can imaging, this doesn't work so well.

Thanks

Lloyd

It works for me if I hold "F2" on the key board

Hope it works ;)

Definitely have no problem with activating RT here.

Is the reverse thrust suppose to stop the plane on a dime? They are super powerful when fully applied it's nuts. :P

Hi.
Yes the herc does have powerfull reversers,and you can even do your own pushbacks,while steering the tiller,just like the real hercs,you should see them do this type off manover in airshows,very impressive.
Its even better when you have the controls programed in the FSUIPC paid version,then you can do individual reverse/feathering/eng control.

Several years ago I reported that using F2 and also programing my Aviator joystick to F2 this would reverse the props but then then engines would shutdown. I like to do assault landings (I was a C-130 navigator), but 4 times out of 5 the engines would shutdown before I could get off the runway. Has anyone else found this problem and resolved it?
