How To Setup Your Airbus TCA Throttles For The FBW A380

[@Brad_1511]

Hoping MSFS will bring out an update to allow us to set BTV on the autobrake so that we finally have a use for it!

[@VictorSilva-qf2tu]

Doesn't BTV already work ? I saw a few livestreams on the a380 and it was working

[@Brad_1511]

BTV works in the A380. I mean I’m hoping that MSFS brings in an update to allow you to assign BTV in the keybinds for our Airbus Thrustmaster packs

[@VictorSilva-qf2tu]

@@Brad_1511 I see. That would be nice

[@pm110978]

Still no update for this?

[@TwentyNailsBike]

Any update on this??

[@Interloper93]

Legend. I was trying to set up the throttles last night but couldnt get it to work properly. Thank you

[@delbydoo]

Brilliant stuff, thanks for clarifying that. For me, I copied the A320 profile and renamed it, then simply adjusted the throttle and engine start buttons to use with four engines- and so far so good. Such a good freeware aircraft, two little trips so far. I only found the MCDU different but not too hard to decipher and use. Looking forward to doing a proper long-haul over the weekend. Thanks again.

[@GatorAviations]

tysm ive been trying for days and i copied my a320 thing and made it 4 engines and it worked!

[@vutti2893]

Great tutorial……concise and to the point….just what was needed. Thank you 👍

[@docholliday1811]

It's really a helpful video on that controller. Thank you very much.

[@AirNOTT]

Glad it helped!

[@pedroa.milian2351]

¡¡Muchísimas gracias por el excelente tutorial, me ha sido de gran ayuda!!👏👏👏👍

[@thiagob1093]

Thanks Bud!!! Helped a lot!

[@pinns]

excellent , many thanks just what I was looking for!

[@stephenpike2206]

Perfect, thank you!

[@xXshinichiconanXx3]

Jeez... And I was getting crazy about what I was doing wrong because the reversers werent moving in sim until you explained theyre not animated yet. Using the honeycomb bravo with the airbus throttle pack.

[@TheAlexn2]

yeah in 4 years they havent got time to animate that those baboons srsly.... i got problems with my quadrant i fly the BED3D cause it works compared to this shit ... that doesn't

[@maticaus]

@@TheAlexn2 Sounds like a you issue. Bredok is shit, and always has been known in the market as shit. Does your Bredok have a working BTV? Does it support OANs, Does it have an entirely modeled interior. Oh so it's missing critical functions that the Free A380 has, that does work in game, I see. Oh and it was released as an alpha model. Whereas Bredok has finished.

[@TheAlexn2]

@@maticaus xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD it has notthe FCM ... otherwise it's the same you dumb@ss

[@ZacZacYT]

Thanks. I was having trouble and this helped.

[@GMarc2.0]

Is there a reason why my axis 2 isn’t moving at all?

[@yams900]

Massive help, thx mate !

[@ronloveflying]

Thanks, the throttles worked fine. I would like to set the engine switches now please.

[@scottmason3342]

Hello I cannot get the flaps to work and speedbrake with the throttle quad please can you advise :) Great video

[@pm110978]

What a massive plane boss

[@mahmoudchannoufi6191]

Hi what about the starter engine and speed brake

[@salokin1]

Is there a way of getting the autobrake settings to match what's shown in the plane?

[@gartfieldty]

Nice video thanks mate

[@H001_Gaming]

great video

[@Ra4ZzeR]

Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. In my case it sets the throttle either to idle or to CLB position after binding and when I want to do the calibration in the EFB, it only accepts engine 1, engine 2 does not move at all. Furthermore, I have no display in the settings for “Reverse Axis”. I have followed the instructions in the video as well as the guide that FBW has published. Im using the TCA Throttle... The Fenix just works fine for me.. Does somebody know a solution?

[@PFGym5]

For the TCA throttle quadrant...wondering if you've solved the issue with the engine master switches? I've got engines 1/2 mapped fine to joystick button 3 (tog fuel valve, set fuel valve, set starter, and set master). The same mappings for engines 3/4 on joystick button 4 only work engine 3...seems bizarre.

[@hausnm]

Will this throttle setup still work with the a320 fbw or do I have to reset the throttle ?

[@WU3Shamradio]

Thanks for a great hekpful video. Did you download the 4k version or the 8k version of the a380?

[@popeptato]

Will you make a tutorial on the plane?

[@AirNOTT]

Still figuring it out for myself right now, soon though hopefully

[@popeptato]

@AirNOTT will definitely look forward to that

[@ironknobair]

I have engines 4/1 set to the left throttle and 2/3 to the right throttle, using only two engines makes taxing easier,

[@rudyseghers6320]

Many thanks!

[@richardswede]

Nice one @AirNott, do you or the readers know why the A380 only has the 2 inboard engines that go to 'REVERSE'?????? It's because these engines are so powerful, that there is a possibility that in reverse they could pick up Stones and debris from the Grass, IF they had reverse on the Outboard engines, as sometimes the outboard engines are over the edge of the Tarmac/Concrete RW.

[@julianpr019]

how do you configurate the flaps?

[@AirNOTT]

Flaps worked out of the box for me

[@julianpr019]

@@AirNOTT yeah it used to work. but it's not working for me anymore

[@mick8678]

Great video I've keybond mine but when I go online on free fly the flaps and throttle just glitch constantly

[@pm110978]

What are your sensitivity settings for the TCA Sidestick?

[@gabby-em90210]

When i open up the power management and throttle i only have throttle 1 and 2. why is this?

[@CrazyGunNoob]

Have you figured this out? I have the same problem

[@gabby-em90210]

@ Yeah i have thank you.

[@captainwealthy]

I'd like to know how to set the Auto-Pilot, particularly when flying manually then once airbourne want to engage auto-pilot. It doesn't happen. Can't set Heading, Speed, Altitude or Vertical Speed.

[@phillipbailey5893]

TCA Q-ENG 1&2 doesn't even show up for me. I have the TCA Captain's Pack. How do I fix this?

[@Kae-fc3wj]

Thanks dude it helped me a lot but i need to know if im the only person here who have a problem with sensitivity, i mean when i move sticks from idle to climb, it is done in msfs aswell but the engines are going from 4% = idle to 97% what is for me climb, should it be like that?

[@Harryguitar58]

Thank you so much. Do these settings also work with the honeycomb Bravo?😊

[@Golab865]

When I put my throttle to full toga it goes all the way back to reverse. When I put it all the way down to idle, it goes to flx. When I put it to full reverse it goes to toga. How do I fix this I’m very frustrated right now

[@paulwain4248]

Do you have a settings for the SPAD app?

[@ChrisJohnson-vs6nj]

There’s a new snippet fully configured on Spad

[@paulwain4248]

Ah thank you, will check it out 🎉

[@frankliao6985]

Why you have 4 axis?

[@paull123]

Anyone having issues with the thrustmaster quadrant autobrake switch ? Cant seem to map it properly. Thought it would work the same as the fenix a320.

[@nathantowill2054]

when i increase my throttle airbus, in the game the throttles go backwards?

[@AirNOTT]

In the control settings, double check if the the reserve tickbox on the throttle axis is checked or not

[@fredericlecam8404]

Merci a toi!

[@3amerDXB]

I have a TCA 4 quadrant engine throttle how do I set it ?

[@gamerv5357]

Du musst unter den einstellungen energieverwaltung den 3 und 4 TCA Quadrant Triebwerk 3/4 hinzufügen. Dann am Efb wählst du 4 Axis aus. Dann sollte man die Kallibrieren können👍

[@leonardomora4927]

Gran explicación y tutorial!

[@Flywithcraig]

So my issue is IRL the throttle will be at idle, yet in game it's showing at CLB. So when I set from throttle it isn't aligning correctly!

[@AirNOTT]

That’s weird! Are all of your sensitivity settings set to zero? Mine had a heavy curve applied by default which caused me a similar issue to you initially

[@Flywithcraig]

@AirNOTT Bloody hell you've done it. I didn't spot a deadzone on one of the axis. It would be good to see you sidestick curve! I'm on about -50 and finally landing under 200fpm lol

[@AirNOTT]

@@Flywithcraig I'm all zero'd for now. Might try it using my Fenix profile (-20) and see how that feels

[@CrazyGunNoob]

I only have throttle axis 1 and 2..Anyone know why I don't have all 4?

[@AirNOTT]

You might showing assigned controls only. On the left you can change it to “all” and you see everything

[@dawsonfazio]

Nice. Wish I could get this plane but sadly Xbox only for me

[@Ahammad2208]

am i the only one who has two throttle axis under throttle and power managment? PLEASE HELPPPP ANSWER FAST

[@Machine3939]

I have the same issue.

[@Ahammad2208]

@ i figured it out, u need to bind them

[@TheAlexn2]

i do exactly lioke you but when i go in CLB mode it's going all the way to TOGA ...; just this plane sucks , unflyable

[@RidwanDewaleDimeji]

Please what bout someone like me that uses Xbox controller. Please make a video for us too.
