Well, first solution would be to buy a second throttle quadrant (that is what I did).
Second is, you can try something that Sokol wrote today:
You can assign the throttle to a combination of KEY+joystick axis(I have not tested it myself but was amazed to read about it):
So allocate:
CTRL+left thumb stick y-axis for your throttle. The moment you leave CTRL your y-axis is no longer active for throttle command.
To make maters easier I would allocate instead of CTRL a joystick button like the one on top of your left thumb.
As said I have no personal experience so thank okol if it worked.
And please post the results (it saves me the efford trying to test it myself) 
Happy Flying

Interesting... So kinda like a shift function. So hold a button to activate the axis function.
Then release button to deactivate axis function while I am holding the thumb stick at the desired angle. Am I getting it right?
So lets pretend I assign prop pitch on engines 1-4 on the gamepad's 4 button D-pad. (eg engine 1 - top D-button, engine 2 - right D-button etc) Could I hold down a D-pad button move the thumb stick down, release D-pad button, then release thumb stick and have that engines prop pitch stay at the desired %???
Maybe thats asking too much.
Cool I could try it out... How do I assign that functionality?
To my knowledge you can't assign a joy button in the axis control settings.
Thanks for your advice GRAthos... Will most certainly feedback if it proves user friendly.
However, I can't shake the feeling that I am missing something basic here.
I want those 4 extra axisesessss to act like a mouse wheel does...
You can assign a function to mouse wheel scroll up and you can assign a
seperate function to mouse wheel scroll down...
Is there a way to split the thumb stick axis in half - assign a function to +Y axis
and assign a different (opposite) function to -Y axis... Same goes for the X and Z axisesesess.
The old IL2 could separate a single axis into - & + values... Thinking about it
is making my head hurt.
Hope I can get many and interesting solutions to experiment with.
