thanks Mark. I had a previous config which was nowhere near as good as yours for the DHC6.

You have done so much for my Flight Simulator experience over the last 12 months. I don't think I would have ever figured the configurations out for the BRAVO throttle without all of your videos. Thank you so much mate.

My man! You have saved me from further elongating the already 2 hours long journey into finding a solution for the feathering with the Bravo. GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL. ❤🎉

I don't know how you are able to figure these things out, but you are the best at it. Thanks so much for sharing!

The service you provide with Honeycomb configuring is immensely invaluable! HC does little to help out its customers with useable content such as yours. Keep up the great work Mark!

Wow. Thank you so much for this. I was having trouble figuring out the condition lever issue and cutting out the fuel. Thank you!

You sir , are a gentleman and very gracious with your time, thank you.

Thanks very much for taking the time to explain this, very much appreciated.

A huge THANK YOU for this vid.. Was having all kinds of trouble setting up my controller.

This is so VERY helpful! I cannot thank you enough. I spent a few hours yesterday fighting with this, but I should have known to check here first. Thanks, yet again, for another lesson that I've benefited from.

you are a god send Mark. Thank you!

Great! The idea is the double binding on switches! So many thanks for this instruction!

Thanks Mark, I’ll give it a go when time allows -great job BR Charlie

Finally I got the right settings for the C208, thank you very much, you really do good for the community.

Amazing I bought my Kodiak yesterday you are WONDERFUL!!!

Still extremely usefull!!!! Thank you for the configuration. Works perfect.

Have the Bravo arriving tomorrow, but I thought for fun I would try your settings on my Logitech throttle quadrant. I am happy to say they worked perfectly. I no longer have to use my mouse wheel to put the prop in feather position. Really appreciate the level of detail you provide. Thank you again

Very useful video thanks Mark great videos very helpful and kind as always. Keep up the good work mate.

Excellent tutorial on how to configure the Power Management settings for the Kodiak and Twin Otter. I had attempted a setup myself on both but could not get the Feathering to work. Now it does. Thank you.

This works very well, highly recommended.

Even with my Saitec Throttle Quadrant, your video helped me a lot, cause it works the same! I saved the Link to your video for when I get my Bravo Quadrant. Thanx a lot, Mark, I am a big Fan of your Channel!

Mark - got the Kodiak for short field work and was basically at my wits end with being unable to reliably reverse the prop.....My control profile was a disaster from trial and error and I was ready to start trying JetSki or pogostick simming or something until I ran across your tutorial. The updates to the Kodiak from SimWorks and this tutorial have been spot on making this plane challenging but predictable and this plane has a personality!......I am using the Logitech TQ and this was still very relevant.

THANK YOU MARK FROM FRANCE; you re a great help for the community

Great instructions, would never have been able to configure my Bravo the right way for the Kodiak!

This works perfectly, thank you so much. Also works great for the MilViz PC-6. :)

This also fixes the Milviz PC-6 Porter, brilliant work, not all hero's wear capes!

Fantastic settings!

Thank you. This beats my configuration. 👍

Your videos are amazing, I wish you could help me. I am 69 disabled and have love everything flight sim since I first used a so called flight sim on a Sinclair Spectrum in the early eighties. My family bought me a Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog stick and throttle when MFS was released, but I'm very confused how to set it up with MFS 2020. If you could make a video showing how to setup these controls , it would make my flying so much more enjoyable. If not I would like to thank you for all the hard work you put into making the videos, for all to enjoy. God bless Mark and take care. John ( UK ).

Thankyou excellent guide, had some fun with the props not unfeathering but that was a failure to clear button 28 from the mixture settings, d'oh!

Sooo many THANKS!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much, Now I can control my condition lever, not mixture! :)

I found what made my fuel cut off not work anymore after SU8. That sensitivity extremity dead zone 20% was reset. Great video. I bookmarked it to keep 4 ever if something does not work anymore. Sim Update reset the Bravo default profile also with SU8 so middle row switches where in conflict again with the bottom left switches on the Alpha and also on Bravo again the switch button 47 / 46 where turning Avionics on and off again. MS / Asobo never thinks about peeps owning both end up with huge mapped binding conflicts if you own Alpha and Bravo. Everything is working and better with the not jumping prop so big thanks.

Thank you!

Thanks very much Mark for revisiting the power management settings for the Kodiak (which as you say will apply to other planes with reverse thrust as well). (I used the settings in your 4th December 2021 video for the V1F Controller). I tried to apply your new Bravo settings in this video to the V1F Controller and the Throttle and Prop settings worked fine - I'm getting reverse thrust and prop feathering perfectly. However for some reason I couldn't get the Condition Lever settings to work at all. The V1F Lever detent position didn't take the planes' lever into cut off. I have ended up deleting both the recommended Condition Lever Axis Cut Off and the Decrease Condition Lever 1 settings and instead have set "Neutral" on the Sensitivity of Joystick L Axis 6 to -(minus) 100%. That was the only way I could stop the lever going into the Cut-Off position below about the 50% position on the V1F Lever. If you get a chance could you please have a look at it and see what you think. I would be most grateful for your opinion.

Hi, not sure if you were able to resolve this. I was having the same problem and the only work around I found was to create a separate profile for the Kodiak without Mixture axis mapping. It appears Mixture interferes with Condition settings. I also changed the bravo levers to match that of Mark.

Thanks once again Mark, for a super helpful tutorial. I found I needed to use the Propeller 1 Pitch Hi for the Twin Otter as well as the Kodiak. Without that setting, the prop lever in the Twin Otter jumped forward when coming out of feather. With Propeller 1 Pitch Hi applied to Button 26 it works perfectly. Perhaps due to Aerosoft DHC-6 update Version 1.0.6.0 which is my version? Anyway, all good now. Many thanks, John

Thanks!

Thanks Mark. I can get those two planes up & running with my Bravo. Too bad Aerosoft does not show the feathers props animation like the Kodiak does.

microsoft should pay you for your videos. thank you

Your videos are very informative. I use the VelocityOne which I watched your videos on that. The Kodiak is difficult to fly and needs an update. The trim is at minus 38 on take off most of the time and you can loose control of it quickly as it will flip over. The Velocity is quirky and when you touch the trim wheel, it bounces to -1 or 0 which causes the plane to go erratic. Then on landing, the plane will nose dive when autopilot is disengaged. I've learned a workaround by engaging autopilot soon after takeoff, let the trim wheel adjust, and then disengage autopilot. Upon landing, I disengage autopilot sooner to get the plane under control when it nose dives. The Caravan 208B, especially with the mod, is a better plane. Also, the plane will crash if you accidently open the window. Although a pretty plane with many models and liveries, needs an update.

Finally, the Kodiak got updated today (PC). It flies and behaves much better now. Very impressed.

you absolute legend, throttle, prop and condition lever settings also work on the saitek/logitech throttle quadrants,

Hi Mark, thanks for all the help you give us bravo users! I applied these settings to the King Air 350i and got everything working perfectly except the condition lever cutoff. Can't seem to get them into cutoff no matter what I try, not sure if you have any ideas, cheers.

As others have said below, your instructions are extremely helpful. I have the Bravo as well and will be adjusting it for my turboprops today. One question: Did you happen to do one of these for the TBM930? I thought I remembered seeing one but not sure it was yours. If you did, would you provide a link? If not, it would sure be helpful since this airplane has a different set-up (no condition or prop levers) than the other single-engine turboprops. Thanks!

Hello Mark, Been reviewing your excellent series of Bravo TQ configuration tutorials, do these config profiles that are created only work with default aircraft, I am thinking of the Black Square range of aircraft. Thanks so much for the tutorials.

@SimHangerFS

Жыл бұрын

My profiles will work with any aircraft that uses a standard binding config. Kodiak 100 etc. Where it will not work is where the dev has used non-standard simconnect calls for functions.

Please help! The condition lever in Caravan will not stop going to cuttoff position before reaching or entering detent. I have tried many extremity dead zone sensitivity settings. Even tried deleting all bravo profiles and starting from scratch. What am I missing???

I have had my bravo for just over six months and the toga buttons on certain axes stopped working. I contacted honeycomb and it appears that there are some units out there with wiring faults, specifically the wiring that connects the axis to main board of the unit is not firmly connected to the axis levers and over time from using the throttle the thin wires just break. So I am now sending it back for RMA and getting it fixed/replaced. Just thought I would share this info for any other bravo users out there.

Please add the same for the Velocity One. Especially sensitivities.

Thanks again for this great tutorial!! Did you find a solution to configure the propeller of the Skymaster?

hi, any ideo how to adapt to the Porter Pilatus Paware? at the moment, the single prop configuratio works not with the fuel. no movement, no cutoff. i hav to pla with it...

i follow this for twin otter however when i come out of reverse prop the lever in sim shoots right to full? any idea if i did something wrong?

That sensitivity extremity dead zone 20% is a global setting and must be set every time you switch from Kokiak to Twotter! That's something you should have mentions or that is what changed and was not so before SU8?

Thanks, as always. Quick check, the throttle adjustment was set to on-press, as opposed to the fix for the prop?

Can you please help me ! I am trying to config the THROTTLES for a twin Baron . The No1 and No2 levers only work like a SWITCH to 50% and from then on linear. I have spent hours trying to change this but no luck. With the settings like this taxing is almost impossible so I have resorted to using no 3 and no 4 for the throttles and they work fine. In the configuration box the MODE can be set to either Airbus or Boeing ???? This is being used for msfs2020.

When starting the engine on the milviz PC-6 my ITT stays in the lowest end, but this only seems to be the case when the condition lever axis is assigned... When I clear it and leave it unassigned/use the mouse it works fine and ITT raises as it should? Can someone help me out here lol?

Thank you for the video and fixing my problems with the throttle quadrant on the bravo and Kodiak. One question. Can you tell me how to map the landing lights to the alpha. Its the only light switch that I can not get to work.

Set your aileron trim before take off this has an aggressive pull at high throttle.

Basically the same function, a Condition Lever is typically found on turbo probs, such as Caravan and TBM 930. Rather than be variable as is the case with Mixture (GA) they usually have preset positions…fuel off…low idle….high etc.
