Default RE: FS One by Hangar 9

I've had FS One for a few days now and I have to say I love it.

I am having one perplexing problem though. I set up two of my TX's on it. A Hitec 4 channel and my Futaba 9CAP. The hitec was a breeze but I have run into a problem with the 9CAP. All of the Axis assignments are correct, the D/R and switches are correct but for some reason I cannot get the engine/prop to do anything but spin slowly. If I hit the "J" button on the KB it will momentarily start the engine then quickly go back to a slow spin. It reacts to the throttle stick movement but only from a dead stop to a slow spin like the engine won't start. ( maybe a DA 100 problem ) I have callibrated it several times and all the sliders are centered and I get full movement of the slider with the throttle stick. Also when I view the servo in the TX editor the arm is moving the full range. I have also deleted the configuration file for the controller several times and started from scratch but it always ends up the same.

I am making do with the Hitec 4ch but I would really rather use my 9CAP as this is the TX I use for my "real" planes.

I find that the Edge 540 flies pretty true to it's real counterpart which I own ( see Avatar ). Especially after loading the new .cfg files available from FS One. You guys at FS One are doing one heck of a job and are to be highly commended.

Any thoughts or ideas on the throttle problem?

Thanks.
