MAKING CHANGES TO THE AXES ON THE TCA QUADRANT

AIRBUS EDITION THROTTLE QUADRANT

The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant features mechanical selectors allowing

you to disable the detents/notches on each axis. Doing so allows you to have smooth axes,

while maintaining virtual buttons 9 through 16.

This option lets you change the piloting sensations according to the type of aircraft being

used in your simulation (commercial aircraft or civil aircraft).

1. Turn the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition upside down, and unscrew the two screws for

each of the selectors using a screwdriver with the corresponding head shape.

2. Switch the position of the selectors, using the indicators as a guide: this will let you

choose either a smooth axis, or an axis with detents/notches, for each axis on the TCA

Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant.

7/18

DISABLING THE THRUST REVERSERS ON THE TCA

QUADRANT AIRBUS EDITION THROTTLE QUADRANT

The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant features functional thrust reversers,

replicating those found on Airbus commercial aviation throttles. You can disable the thrust

reverser mechanism, for piloting better suited to civil aviation.

Commercial airliner mode:

1. At the stop, lift up the thrust reverser mechanism.

2. Moving past the stop lets you use the thrust reverser.

General and civil aviation mode:

1. Lift up the thrust reverser mechanism.

2. Turn the selector to position 0 to disable the thrust reverser mechanism.

3. The thrust lever can now move through the entire axis.

CONNECTING TWO TCA QUADRANT AIRBUS EDITION

THROTTLE QUADRANTS

You can connect a second TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant (sold separately):

this will allow you to use 4 axes in total, simulating a four-engine commercial airliner, for

example.

1. Turn both TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrants upside down, and screw on the

two attachment pieces included with the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition to attach the two

devices together.

2. On the second throttle quadrant, physically set the selector switch to 3/4 in order to

associate engines 3 and 4 with the second throttle quadrant (in the Control Panel on PC).

3. Connect the axes together by pair (1/2 and 3/4) to make them easier to move in unison,

using the crossbar included with each TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition.

CONNECTING THE TCA QUADRANT AIRBUS EDITION

THROTTLE QUADRANT TO THE TCA QUADRANT ADD-ON

AIRBUS EDITION*

* Sold separately

The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant lets you connect the additional TCA

Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition modules (sold separately) on both sides of the TCA

Quadrant Airbus Edition.

This modularity adds new axes and action buttons and lets you expand the takeoff, in-flight

and landing kinematics for the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant.

1. Turn the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant and the two additional TCA

Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition modules upside down, and (using a screwdriver with the

corresponding head shape) screw on the four attachment pieces included with the TCA

Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant and the TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition,

attaching all three devices together: the Speed brake module to the left of the TCA

Quadrant Airbus Edition, and the Flaps module to the right.

2. Connect the SATA cables included with the TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition to the

SATA connectors on the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition.

3.

- To avoid damaging the products, use a screwdriver with the corresponding head shape to

tighten/untighten the screws.

- Only use the official cables provided by Thrustmaster.

ATTACHING/SEPARATING THE TWO THRUST LEVERS

Use the crossbar included with the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant to connect

the two thrust levers together.

12/18

ADJUSTING THE FRICTION

IMPORTANT NOTES:

- The friction for the two thrust levers is set to 50% by default.

- In order to allow for precise adjustment according to your preferences, you can use a

screwdriver with the corresponding head shape — or the included crossbar — to turn the

friction adjustment screw.

1. Push both thrust levers forward to their maximum values, and then access the friction

adjustment screw at the back of the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition.

2. To increase the friction, turn the friction adjustment screw clockwise.

13/18

3. To decrease the friction, turn the friction adjustment screw counterclockwise.

- To avoid damaging the friction system, be careful not to over-tighten the adjustment

screw: stop turning the screw when you feel resistance.

- Never completely unscrew the adjustment screw, to avoid the screw falling inside the

body of the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition.

ATTACHING THE TCA QUADRANT AIRBUS EDITION

THROTTLE QUADRANT TO A COCKPIT OR OTHER

STATIONARY SURFACE

You can use the two perforations located on the underside of the TCA Quadrant Airbus

Edition to attach it to a cockpit or other stationary surface, using M6 screws (not included).

14/18

CONNECTING THE TFRP* RUDDER SYSTEM TO THE TCA

QUADRANT AIRBUS EDITION THROTTLE QUADRANT

* Sold separately

The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant has 7 axes, with 3 of these axes being

reserved for the TFRP rudder system.

The TFRP rudder system connects directly to the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle

quadrant.

1. Connect the male RJ12 connector for the TFRP rudder system to the female RJ12

connector located at the back of the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant.

2. Connect the USB connector for the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant to one

of the USB ports on your PC.

Important notes regarding automatic calibration of axes:

- Always leave the rudder axis centered when connecting the TFRP rudder system to the

TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition throttle quadrant: never put your feet on the TFRP rudder

system’s pedals when doing so.

- The pedals’ 3 axes automatically calibrate themselves after a few movements, and after

having reached the physical stops for the rudder axis and the 2 differential brake axes.
