FMS won't run helicopter models

[Chatenever]

I'm using an Esky 0905A simulator box with a recently downloaded version of FMS. Went through all the mapping and calibration, and all works well on all the standard models that come with FMS, except for the two helicopters (hughes.par and threedee.par). On those two models, channels 1,2,and 4 work, but channel 3 (throttle does not). I tried reversing the throttle servo just for kicks, but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Have you mapped the pitch channel to the throttle.

Thanks Malc. I didn't realize that the bottom four entries in mapping were for helis. Found the complete answer here

Hey guys, I hope this can save at least one of you from the frustration I intially experienced when I received my 0905A FMS today and couldn't get it to work. I finally looked really close at the instruction sheet and noticed that my default (after software installation) mapping did not match that of the illustration as shown in step "3". You might have to change your settings as I did, starting from the top, opposite "Rudder", change the numbers to 4-2-1-3 and 4-2-1-3 again, filling in all 8 boxes in that column. Then make sure to put a check mark in all boxes under the 'INV" column, then continue on to the calibration instructions.
