So can I confirm the following?
1. Are the throttles working to control x-plane (I think the big stuff as you describe says it is, and that motorised movement works as expected)?
2. How are the two usbs connected? is the joy one connected to the main flightsim computer and the other to sioc on the pm machine or do you have all running on one pc?
I'm assuming all is connected to one pc, whereas I envision a situation whereby the joy usb is connected to the xplane pc and the motorised one to the PM machine where SIOC is running, although it may be that both need to be connected to the same place, perhaps on the main sim machine.
If it's just toga and A/T Disconnect, then I think that its possible to code these offsets in the config file, so not a problem. What I do see as being an issue is remote joystick connection as XPUIPC doesn't support joystick assignment yet as registered FSUIPC does.
My message to revsimproducts
Message: Quick question, I have read that the non motorised throttle works with x-plane and also have a friend with the proline tq (that I have on order) who has told me that also works with x-plane. Both the friend and myself use Project Magenta.
Would I be correct in assuming that I can connect the joystick side of the throttle to the flight sim pc for direct use with x-plane and use the other usb in another computer with sioc to be controlled by project magenta for motorised components such as throttles, speed brake etc?
I am particularly looking forward to using the pro tq with PM and X-plane 10 when released this year.
This was the response I got from Revsimproducts:
Dear Alexander,
Non motorized throttle works with no problem on X Plane. Since it is basically an advanced joystick all you need to do is to define the axis and the buttons as the normal one and use it. Motorized however is a different story. Frankly we have not yet tried xplane+PM combination. However this has given us a good idea to try. As the throttle works with PM with no problem at all, using the B737 model and PM has a possibility of working fine together.
As PM offsets are private offsets we will soon try this and will publish the results. As of right now there is no guarantee from our side for the mentioned combination.
Best Regards
