HOTAS X - throttle midpoint is treated as 50% - can I change it to 0%?

[CorBlimey]

My joystick throttle (Thrustmaster HOTAS X) has a deadzone in the middle, which is the default position (i.e. it is uncomfortable when held back behind this point).

This is interpreted by the game as 50% thrust. Can I configure it to treat it as the 0% thrust mark? (and ideally to intepret the throttle behind that point as reverse)

I have it configured like this in Elite Dangerous and it is awesome.



EDIT:
Dev responded on same post on Steam forums with:

"Yes, just press the right shift key and it will change your throttle to full range (R next to IDS on the left cockpit display), which allows the middle to be 0%, positive values for positive velocity levels for flying forwards, negative values for negative velocity levels for flying backwards."

Therefore, this thread is answered.

Yes, as in the other post, simply switch to the full range throttle mode. Also works well with gamepads that have self-centering thumb sticks.

It's also nice to know for those of us who accidentally push the right Shift key instead of the right Ctrl key when wanting to put the ship's nose on the galactic horizon.
