Quite often when I go to full power at take off one or more of the engines does not respond to increased throttle and I have to drag them up with the mouse. Happens during taxi also sometimes. I have a logitech wingman 3d joystick. Do I just need a better joystick or is there another solution. Thanks

You may want to try and calibrate the joystick and see if any improvement but if that dont work then you might want to get a new joystick.

If your joystick connects with a USB connection, you may want to unplug it and then plug it back in. Those USB's have a habit of getting dirting and not making a good connection.

Hit the E+1&2 all at the same time this should get all of them working with the throttle.

Do you use a manual start up proceedure or other single engine control? If so your engine controls may still be focused on 1 engine. Hitting keys E, 1 and 2 (and 3 and 4 if appropriate,keyboard, not numpad) in quick order should bring back all engine control.
