Hardware Controllers: Joysticks/Yokes | Throttle Quads | Rudder Pedals | Drivers etc

hi,You can download a tool for Control the lights on the G940 Throttle-Buttons by FSXon http://www.xmapsy.com.Michael

I have a problem that has just recently popped up. I use Ch yoke, pedals, and throttle quadrant and all three calibrate ok.What is happening is pressing the right brake will cause the no. 1 throttle to jump back and forth. The right brake will sometimes move the no. 2 throttle. Moving the rudder pedals will cause the prop lever control to jump back and forth. I don't mean the physical controls but rather the animation on screen. I can disconnect the throttle quadrant thus using the engine controls on the yoke itself but the same problem occurs so it's not the throttle quadrant causing it. I have plugged all the cables to different usb ports but that didn't do anythi…

Hello,I have seen the toggle switches from Fly Engravity. Does anybody know if these switches can be connected to the computer via USB? They would be an excellent choice for home cockpit builders. Here's a link- http://www.flyengravity.com/page/shop/8 . Also, does anyone know if there is an overhead panel that is sold without the switches? That would be a great, cheap overhead panel. Thank-you for any suggestions.

...just out of curiosity, is there a way to assign buttons (on Saitek TQ for example) to a clickable mouse switches like internal light switch, and what about levers like the vent, heat & defrost cabin levers CheersYair

Hi,So I'm requesting some help with this strange issue. When ever I use the toe brakes on my new Saitek Rudder Pedals, the aircraft won't move anymore as it somehow has set some kind of brake, but not the parking brake. For instance if I'm moving down the runway or taxiway and I hit the left toe brake it will lock the left brake and I will veer to the left out of control, or if I push both toe brakes they both will lock. Though they are not setting the parking brake, they are definitely setting something. The only way to recover from this is to hit the parking brake (Ctrl+.) then hit the brake again to release (.) Just got these this morning, Please help.Thanks!

LINDA is released!We'd like to point to our LINDA forum here on AVSIM: LINDA forumHere is the announcement and a short description about LINDA for further information, screenshots etc look at LINDA forum.Many thanks!

Hello All !Any experience, reviews, with the new annunciator ????? Yair

Any experiences with those new drivers? On some other forum some people were having a lot of problems with them - unstable FSX, FPS decrease.. yet some didn't. I'm tired of taking chances with FSX because I always loose if you know what I mean. Even when I think nothing can go wrong.... well... wrong!Anybody installed those drivers, any problems?

Hello,I have bought the Saitek Pro Flight Yoke system and throttles but can't get the pedals now. Therefore, does anyone know how to control rudder ? I wish I could assign C1/C2 buttons because it would be more precise and easy than using one of the throttles but that does not seem possible...Thank youGreg

Hello, The plug on my Saitek Yoke where you plug in the throttle is damaged so the throttle doesn't work. I've already ordered a replacement throttle with a USB plug. Do you think it's possible to replace the PS2 plug on the throttle with a USB plug? The throttle works fine, it's just the input on the yoke that's fubared.

Hi,I've been using a Xbox360 controller for a while but it does not work good with FSX. Controlling the plane with this is a pain. So, I would like to buy a better controller... and this is where I need your help! What would be the best controller? I was looking at the "Saitek X65 Pro Flight Control"Does is worth it's money? Is there any controller that you would suggest? Thanks guys!

Has anyone set up multiple COM and NAV GoFlight modules? I just got one of their multiple units with the following modules all on one front panel (great looking piece of kit by the way). COM1 COM 2 NAV1 NAV2 XPDR Spare module (can use as DME) Multiple rotary knob and multiple push button module. In their setup program I can assign the function to each module easily as it shows the COM and NAV functions. However in the assignments for the actual push button below each LED display I am confused. If you look at their set up document here, for instance on the left display of the COM module the example shows the selection as ATC_WINDOW_POPUP and the right display as ATC…

Hey!I'm searching for the WinXP-drivers for the MS Sidewinder ForceFeedback Joystick. I'm presently having troubles with my joystick in FS9, where it's very difficult to make straight flights using the joystick, and I'm afraid that much can be improved if I had teh right drivers... Xin XP - FS2004!!!Somebody who can help me?GreetzJive1

I just bought a new system and my GoFlight MCP Pro does not work. When FSX launches the autopilot displays dashes across all display units. When you start a flight there is only dashes displayed. When the unit is plugged in it shows numbers for 2 seconds then goes blank. I have installed the latest drivers from GoFlight's web site. Please help, this device was way too expensive to just not work. GoFlight is horrible about not answering their tech support queries.

It looks like I may have a major problem with my HD. Here is the sequence of events:1/ One of my GF module did not work because it was not detected by my GF config. software, I resolved that problem. And I had to restart Windows so as to install the new GF module.2/ To restart Windows, I simply selected "restart" and Windows initiated its close down process, that lasted for ever (read more than 10mn), I then decided to press the restart button on my PC so as to speed up the process.3/ When restarting my PC went through the BIOS very, very, very slowly as a matter of fact, after 15 mn it is still going on when I type these lines.I don't know what that means, I never had a …

It's the new official Xbox 360 wireless stearing wheel, priced at $60. I wonder if it can be turned into a yoke with a floor attachment.See this link for more details.http://kotaku.com/5809302/microsofts-new-official-360-steering-wheel-cuts-the-cord/gallery/1

Hi guys, my old Saitek Cyborg Evo stick, which I´m using now arround 4 years with absolutely zero problems, seems to reach his limit. Yesterday the armrest broke away and the stick seems to be more sluggish now (Don´t know whether this is related to the broken armrest.). About one year ago I bought me the Saitek Cyborg X as an replacement for this stick but I had some problems with it: After more than 1 month the ruder axis didn´t respond anymore whereas all other axis and buttons worked. So I send that back and got an replacement. Wich worked for about the same time and then from one moment to the other the same happened again. But I forgot to send it back the second tim…

I am having an issue with one of my throttle quadrants. The one that is connected to the yoke operates just fine, the second one however does not. The first two throttles will only travel about 3/4 of the way on FSX, when I have the throttle all the way down (even to the reverse thrust button) the throttle will only come down to about 3/4 of the way down, leaving the engine to stand at high RPMs. The last axis farthest to the right operates fine, just the first two axis. I have installed the newest drivers and have calibrated them and still nothing.

Anybody have the Throttletek throttles? If so, can you give me a review of what your thoughts are on it.Regards,jen

Have a Freedom 2.4 cordless joystick.Installed LevelD 767, assigned keyboard lights for aircraft lighting through the LevelD's own menu in the tool bar.The joystick stopped working. Maybe I have press a key which disabled the joystick when trying to assigning the lights.In FS2004 every works with the joystick so I know that the joystick functions normally.In short there is no communication between the joystick & FSX.I hope that there is a simple solution to this matter.Ignore message, Enable Controller was out. Everything is now fine. Would like to say thanks to all the members who give advise on the forums, it has helped me in the past.

I bought a Saitek Pro Yoke and Throttle last December, and it seemed to work fine until January. In January, the yoke and throttle would lock up when FS-X was started. Since that time I have rebuilt the computer, moved to WIn 7 64Bit, updated the video card, which of course means all new drivers, so I was hoping that what ever was causing the conflict would now be out of the system. I also installed the most current driver from Saitek. However when I tried it again today, the same thing is still happening.The yoke seems to work fine when plugged in. When I check the game controllers section of Control Panel, the yoke shows up fine, all the buttons indicate proper action, …

Hi,Maxximo, the genius who designed the Spad drivers, has stopped sending posts on his forum for months. Does anyone know what happened to him? I made a donnation to him and he did not thank me :Phbbbt: .I wonder whether he has been kidnapped by Saitek :Drooling:

I was wondering if it was possible to assign dual control inputs to a single axis? Specifically, I want to have one input (joystick) drive the left aileron and another to drive the right? This, in effect, is what I would need to simulate control of a paraglider aircraft. Can I asume that FSUIPC will handle this? (It's been ages since I've used that, and for a completely different application).Any help would be appreciated!- Mark
