MOZA MTP Throttle Panel

MOZA MTP Throttle Panel

Take control of your flight simulation with the MOZA MTP Throttle, designed for professional and enthusiast pilots seeking precision, realism, and immersion.

Inspired by fighter jet throttle panels, the MTP features a CNC-machined aluminum alloy grip, 27 fully programmable switches, and an adjustable detent system to replicate real-world throttle milestones like afterburners and idle lockout.

Built-in vibration feedback delivers tactile cues for stalls, overspeed alerts, and combat impacts, while the Hall-effect joystick ensures smooth, drift-free input for both axis and buttons.

Fully customizable via MOZA Cockpit software, the MTP Throttle integrates seamlessly with the MTLP panel for a complete, two-handed fighter aircraft setup.

Plug-and-play compatible with PC, it provides professional-grade control without additional plugins. Perfect for sim pilots who demand uncompromising accuracy and realism.

Getting Started Guide

1. Unbox and inspect the throttle

    

   • Remove the MTP Throttle, toolkit, data cable, and documentation from the box.

   • Check the levers, switches, and joystick for any visible damage or looseness.

    

2. Plan your mounting method

    

   • Decide whether you’ll use a desktop clamp, a mounting plate, or install it directly on a cockpit panel.

    

3. Position the throttle

    

   • Place the unit on the left or right side of your seat (typically left for modern fighter/airliner style), where your arm rests naturally.

   • Ensure the levers can travel fully without hitting your desk, monitor stand, or other controls.

    

4. Secure the base (temporarily)

    

   • If you have a clamp or plate, loosely attach it so you can still fine-tune the angle and reach before fully tightening.

    

5. Connect the USB cable

    

   • Plug the data cable into the throttle and then into a USB port on your PC.

   • Avoid unpowered hubs if possible for better stability.

    

6. Power on your PC

    

   • Boot Windows and allow it to recognize the new USB device.

    

7. Install MOZA Cockpit software

    

   • Download and install the latest MOZA Cockpit from MOZA’s website.

   • Open it and confirm that the MTP Throttle appears in the device list.

    

8. Verify axes and buttons

    

   • In MOZA Cockpit, move the throttle levers, mini joystick, and operate each switch to ensure all 27 switch positions register correctly.

    

9. Create a basic profile

    

   • Set a default detent layout (e.g., idle / MIL / afterburner) and moderate vibration/lighting levels.

   • Save this profile as your starting point (e.g., “Modern Fighter”).

    

10. Bind controls in your flight sim

     

    • Launch MSFS, DCS, X-Plane, or IL-2 and map throttle axes and buttons to in-game functions.

    • Test in a quick mission or free flight and adjust as needed.

     

Product Installation Guide

1. Prepare your rig or desk

    

   • Make sure your desk or cockpit plate is rigid and free from flex.

   • Clear enough space to move the throttle levers from full idle to full power without obstruction.

    

2. Install the clamp or mount (if used)

    

   • Attach the MOZA desktop clamp or mounting plate to the throttle using the supplied screws and wrench.

   • Position it on your desk edge or cockpit rail and lightly tighten so you can still make adjustments.

    

3. Ergonomic alignment

    

   • Sit in your usual flying position and adjust distance, height, and angle so your wrist is relaxed and you can reach all switches easily.

   • Once comfortable, fully tighten the clamp or mounting bolts.

    

4. Cable routing & strain relief

    

   • Route the USB cable along your rig frame or behind your desk to avoid snagging or pinching.

   • Use small cable clips or zip ties to secure it and reduce strain on the throttle’s connector.

    

5. Optional: Pair with MTLP Panel

    

   • If you have a MOZA MTLP Panel, mount it adjacent to the MTP Throttle so both hands rest naturally on the controls.

   • Connect the panel via its own USB/RJ11 link following the MTLP instructions.

    

6. Software setup and firmware check

    

   • Open MOZA Cockpit and ensure the MTP is detected.

   • Check for firmware updates for the throttle and apply them if available.

    

7. Configure detents

    

   • In the software, set detent positions for your typical aircraft (e.g., idle, climb, afterburner).

   • For space sims, you might set a center detent so you can push/pull for forward/reverse thrust.

    

8. Tune vibration and lighting

    

   • Adjust vibration intensity so you can clearly feel alerts without it becoming distracting.

   • Set lighting brightness and telemetry behaviors (e.g., change color on gear down or afterburner).

    

9. Profile creation for multiple sims

    

   • Create separate profiles for different sims or aircraft types (e.g., “DCS Hornet,” “MSFS Airliner,” “Space Sim”).

   • Map switches logically—group COM/NAV, weapons, views, and systems in a consistent pattern.

    

10. Final verification flight

     

    • Run a test flight or mission and confirm that detents, vibration, and lighting all trigger as expected.

    • After a few sessions, re-check your clamp or mounting bolts and tighten if any play develops.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Q: What games is the MTP Throttle compatible with?

A: The MTP is designed for PC flight simulators and works with major titles like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024, DCS World, X-Plane 11/12, IL-2 and others via MOZA Cockpit. Because it’s a standard USB device, you simply map axes and buttons inside each sim.

Q: How many buttons and switches does the throttle have?

A: The MTP includes 27 physical switches, organized into toggles, pushbuttons, rotaries, and a mini-joystick, giving you plenty of inputs for complex modern aircraft and space sims.

Q: Does the MTP Throttle support adjustable detents?

A: Yes. The adjustable detent system lets you set custom positions for idle, afterburner, reverse, or a center detent. This is especially useful for jets and space games where you need to feel specific throttle points without looking down.

Q: What kind of sensors does it use for accuracy?

A: The main throttle axis uses a 15-bit magnetic encoder, and the mini joystick uses Hall-effect sensors. Both are contactless designs, which means smooth, precise input and no traditional potentiometer wear or drift.

Q: Does it have force feedback or vibration?

A: The throttle doesn’t provide traditional “force feedback” on the lever, but it does feature built-in vibration that responds to sim telemetry—such as stall warnings, overspeed, or weapons events—and can be tuned in MOZA Cockpit.

Q: Can I use the MTP without other MOZA hardware?

A: Yes. The MTP can run standalone as a USB throttle on PC. You don’t need a MOZA base or pedals to use it, though it integrates neatly with other MOZA flight products if you decide to build out a full ecosystem.

Q: How does the MTP work with the MTLP Panel?

A: The MTP is designed to pair with the MOZA MTLP Panel to create a complete fighter-style left-hand stack: the MTP handles throttle and thumb controls, while the MTLP adds landing gear, brakes, and additional switches. Mounted together, they form a cohesive, two-handed cockpit layout.
