[Luke]

[from WingCenter (german)]

With a new Pilot profile the throttle and rudder controls are not defined by default. To use all the functions on your joystick, you must do the following:

Throttle

Go to Options > Control Config > Ship

Make a doubleclick on ABSOLUTE THROTTLE AXIS or select it and click BIND in the upper right corner.

Throttle not binded

Then move your throttle control on your joystick a litle bit. Now it should be binded to JOYSTICK Z AXIS.

Throttle binded

Click ACCEPT now or read next posting if you want to configure the rudder/twist function also.
