Cougar HOTAS Throttle is not responding correctly when flying Helicopters

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

i have that feeling, that my TM HOTAS Cougar Throttle is not responding ingame the right way...or just the game is not answering correctly...

 

Maybe i am completely wrong thinking how to steer an helicopter instead of a jet with the Cougar Throttle..(in case of that, please explain)

But i discover this:

 

When i move my throttle from 30% up to 65% in an Arma 3 Helicopter, the collective pitch indicator does not move in the variometer.

It still stays  almost in the middle of the gauge. Everything else works fine, when i push, it goes to full power, when i pull, it goes to idle.

But my Joystick Analyzer instead works fine, i tabbed out to Windows and see that it moves the correct way.

Looks like an deadzone somewhere in the middle?

I run Windows 10 Pro 64bit, Arma 3 with AFM, Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar.

What can be  done? I dont want to miss those 35% of Throttle/Joystick movement. With that, its very hard to control the Heli, even hovering...

i have attached 2 pics.

Can someone help please?

 

thanks in advance.

Cheers

You sure you're mapping the analogue control to the throttle and not the digital?

Hi. I just wanted to say that I'm in the market for an all-metal thrustmaster cougar throttle for modding purposes. So if your woes lead to you considering an upgrade, I'd like to buy it.
