I can't seem to get the F2 key to activate the thrust reversers. I think it's my keyboard, most games that use F keys, seem to be not compatible with my keyboard(Not all F keys, some work).
Anyways, does anyone know where I could find a cfg file or a commands file so I can manually change this function to something like "T". |

Use the Page Down key to activate reverse thrust |

i thought the key was F1. F2 returns them to idle.
edit: got it backwards..F1 sends to idle, F2 engages reverse thrust (thanks Tailwinds) |

The F2 key is indeed used for reverse thrust. Just make sure that the throttle on your joystick is set to minimum first. When reverse thrust has done it's job, just slowly bring up the throttle on the joystick or press F3 back to idle or taxi speed. |

The Page Down and Page Up Keys work in the exact same way as the F2 and F3 keys...Of course, one could always just detach the throttle quadrant by pressing F4 and re-size and place it in the corner of the screen ready for use. Just use your mouse and drag the throttle into reverse thrust. However, this is not good for me because by doing that I sometimes get a blue screen for a couple of seconds which can really spoil an otherwise pleasant flight. |
