Hello @uraymeiviar , You’re right, those are event ID used to set the throttle
lever. The difference is that SET_EX supports reverse thrust (after setting
KEY_THROTTLE_REVERSE_THRUST_TOGGLE) which means we can use it to set negatives
values to the throttle when the inputs are positives I hope this helps :slight_smile:

The input I am referring to is the value of the throttle axis that is binded
to THROTTLE1_AXIS_SET_EX1. So let’s say this axis has a value of 1, after
pressing the key THROTTLE_REVERSE_THRUST_TOGGLE, the value of
THROTTLE1_AXIS_SET_EX1 will be -1.
