I have never tried the linking, but I fly a fairly wide variety of stuff, so that may not work. However, wouldn't setting up two stick maps, and toggling between them, be a good way to compare, in flight, mid-fight even, the advantages and disadvantages of linking? I'm gonna have to try that.
Anyway, regarding throttle, I don't fly at a set throttle in anything. I'll have to fly the 109F more, I haven't flown it much in a few months.
Nice to see some of the odder birds getting so much attention.
