When flying VR, does anyone have a sure-fire method of controlling the throttles with a joystick after landing? Though I haven't yet run off the end of a runway, it's occasionally a near miss, as the throttles sometimes (not always) 'stick' and cannot be moved with my Saitek X52 throttle quadrant. So far, more by luck than judgment I think, I do usually manage to guess where the ghost throttles might be and get the 'real' throttles down to idle in time, but there must (surely?) be a way to do this reliably every time? Is there a 'feature' I can turn off for VR flights (never fly any other way), so that the throttles will never 'lock' and not respond to input from my joystick?

(I do not want to have to use my VR handsets on the throttles: on touchdown there is enough to do, without trying to use a handset - much too awkward :unsure: Moving the throttles to idle has to be accomplished via my Saitek).

Thanks for any advice.
