Warthog Throttle not working properly

[Kupsised]

Hi all!

I just managed to get my grubby paws on a Warthog, but for some reason the throttle won't work properly in CloD. When I open up the Axes menu and assign it to something it works, but for some reason it doesn't go past 0% until I give about 30% input on the throttle. Then it shoots up to 100% (which inputted is probably actually about 70%). The problem is that I know it's CloD because on the 'In' and 'Out' bars beneath the throttle the 'In' bar is behaving as it should, but the 'Out' bar doesn't move except between 30% and 70%. I haven't changed any of the sliders where you can change what 100% or 0% is etc., no dead zones or anything and it works fine in everything else...

Can anyone help? I'm pretty annoyed about this since I spent the whole day like a child at Christmas setting up all the buttons etc. only to find this problem with something as basic as the throttle and I just can't for the life of me figure out a fix.

Nevermind, problem solved. After fiddling around a bit I realised it had automatically set the 100% bar to the far left. I'd assumed that meant it was 0% less than 100%, but apparently not.

S!

Seems my Warthog Throttle went haywire The right throttle lever acts up when moving it..does not go full and at the same time the micro stick cursor jumps around. Time for warranty I guess or could just open the throttle and check the wires...

I know it is hard but RESIST the tempation!

Have you got the lastest bios? the update procedure using the provided tools is quite straight forward.

Also I had an initial issue with my throttle where I thought I had bricked it. I sent an email to the thrustmaster support and after a bit of information exchange they sent me a calibration utility that got my throttle working again.

They are very helpful, though time zone issues caused a few delays for me.

Hope it all goes well, They are a great throttle.

Yeah, I just took a peek how it looked. Wires seemed OK, but you never know if not dismantling the thing. Gonna try to contact support, thanks for the tip!

Had the same problem some time ago, sent it in to the dealer and got a replacement within a week or so.
