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

This is a forum to discuss issues with Joysticks, pedals, yokes, other interface hardware like panels, etc.

    The brakes don’t work or almost don’t work using Ruddo pedals in MSFS 2020. They do work in X-Plane. I have tried various settings in “sensitivity settings” and can’t get the brakes to work. Please help. Lokoko

    I'm having a problem with the throttle range. When I launch a flight I have my throttle at 0% and the plane is at 17% max throttle and it only goes to 83% in the aircraft. When landing I pull throttle to 0% I'm still getting 17% which means landing is difficult. I've tried joy.cpl but the range of movement is full. It's showing as Z axis. I don't have any software for the Saitek kit. I'm using Prepar3d v4.5 on Win 10. Thanks

  3. OK, did a search for bind mouse movement to keyboard key(s). There are 20 pages, but each time I clicked on a page; it looked as though I was doing another search. I'll just ask my question here to see if possible. lately I dusted off my B17 Mighty Eighth again. I got to thinking, I'll bet there might be some way(s) to use Voice attack. However, Wayward did not include too many keys for the movement in game. Instead they used a rt click round icon menu to enact actions and movement. Example: If I RT Click on the bombardier, the round icon menu pops up. In the middle is another icon that can enact movment,first aid,maintenance etc; with each left click.…

  4. Does anyone know of a site to answer questions on the Title above? I have MSFS 2020 loaded but all controllers are not controlling flight. They show up on certain screens as being connected but no luck in flight. I've had no luck in finding any assistance.

  5. I just purchased the TCA Officer pack and I am thinking on getting the clamp too. The point is that my table is more than 45 mm/1.8 inches thick. Is there any clamp alternative out there that can work on thicker tables?

    Hello to all: I finally picked up my Honeycomb Bravo a couple of days ago. I have been slowly trying to assign axes and buttons to the various aircraft in the simulators I have. In P3D v5.1, trying to upload the PMDG profile and activate via the Aerosoft Configurator, just brought a lot of problems. I wanted to deactivate the PMDG Profiles, but I was not able to find or understand how to do that. So, I deleted the PMDG profiles in the BIN folder of Honeycomb, leaving only the default Bravo and Alpha profiles. Notwithstanding that, when I start P3D and/or when I change/load an aircraft (PMDG or not) I get an on screen message telling me that the PMDG NGXu prof…

    Hi, I wonder if someone had the same experience. I purchased both the alpha yoke and bravo throttle. With the alpha yoke I paid the 250 Euros and that was it. With the Bravo throttle I just got an additional invoice for 54,55 Euros for customs taxes. I did not know that , it was not mentioned that we had to pay additional customs taxes. I live in Germany btw. Thanks Bernd

    Hi all, I wish to create custom FIP gauges on P3DV4. As I'll start from zero I'm searching for some how-to docs. I've found something interesting on developing custom FIP gauges on X-Plane but nothing about P3D. I have SPAD.neXt registered version and I think I could use it for building new gauges. Kindly someone could give me any suggestion? Thanks in advance, Alessandro

    Does anyone know if MFS 2020 will accept over 12 controllers, I have 4 Thrustmaster MFD cougars, when i plug the last one in the sim closes. If I unplug one of the others and then replug in #4, it works. Which ever one I plug in last, beyond 12, it closes the sim.

    I received the Trackir 5 with the pro clip and have spent a lot of time learning the interface, how to configure, etc. I feel I have all the profiles for yaw, pitch, roll set up properly and my head movements are comfortable for the most part, although you have to get used to looking with your head as much as with your eyes. I think this is a fine product and this post should not be considered a criticism. Having said all that, I don't think it is great for commercial aircraft and I'm looking for any tips others have used before I box it up and return it. My biggest issue is turning knobs and flipping switches, I can't smooth it out enough to make that easy, slight he…

    Just installed the CH FSYoke & the CH Multi Function Panel (MFP) with the CH Control Manager, everything works on my desktop but... When I go into MSFS 2020, the Yoke shows up in the sim, and works but nothing shows up for the MFP. In previous sims the MFP would show up as an auxiliary / virtual device. Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a possible shortcoming within the sim. Any suggestions or recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi Everyone I have made some progress with my Bravo unit which is pleasing although there are certainly parts of it i don't like. For example it seems the only way for the throttle, mixture, pitch axis is to use the P3D menu and subsequently being able to easily move from aircraft to aircraft if going from a turboprop to a jet is time consuming but the biggest issue i have is a calibration issue. I have the PMDG B737 and profile activated and can use the throttles effectively however the Flap lever is a problem. Fully up on the hardware is always giving me only flaps 1 not up no matter what I do and full down gives flaps 30 not flaps 40. Can anyone he…

    Hi, I have deleted my Sim PC which had run win7 with all my kit successfully and reinstalled my prepar3d v4.5 onto win10 which all went according to plan. The issue I'm having after configuring stuff again I'm finding my Goflight MCP works perfectly with pmdg737 i.e. when I turn a knob it reacts perfectly in the cockpit but I'm getting no display on the MCP all leds are dead although if I restart the GF interface tool it lights up for a couple of secs then goes off. Also my GF DIO card has the exact same issues if I turn on my autobrake RTO dial on my cockpit the ennucuator doesn't light up but turns on when I look at the virtual cockpit.? I'm at my wi…

  18. In need of some help. I just started using the alpha yoke from honeycomb. I read all the documentation and have removed all the generic brake commands from the setup inside the sim. When I press the button on the underside of the left handle for my ptt it still commands the toe brakes. I am at a loss for what to do. Sucks to try and taxi and talk to ground and come to a halt on the taxi way every time. Thanks for help Wesley Charles

  19. I went through the 22 minute video from Honeycomb to set up the Bravo Throttle Quadrant; I downloaded the 'pre-made' PMDG 737 NGXu profile from the support page. I tweaked the key assignments in P3D v4.5. I cannot get the Autopilot to work; the IAS, HDG, etc do not engage. The landing gear lights will not come on, the annunciator lights (parking brake, APU, etc) do not light up. I must be doing something wrong, but have no idea what it is. Any suggestions?

  20. Hello there everyone, I have recently bought a Logeitech Flight instrument Panel. I have installed the Plug In from Logitech website for the windows 10 FSX 64 bit version. It starts fine and shows up but once I start taking off all the data are gone, the Panel still shows the different displays but it doesn`t indicate any information ( airspeed altitude etc) nothing shows up but the displays are still there and I could switch to different displays but yeah nothing works. I was wondering if anyone would know how to fix this problem as I have looked everywhere and couldnt find a solution It is very important to me this works as I am doing flight training and started doing c…

  21. I'm using the Saitek throttle quadrant to control speedbrakes (left lever) left engine (centre lever) and right engine (left lever). I've 'reversed' the speedrake axis so that when the left lever is in the 100% position, the speedbrakes are retracted and fully extended at 0%. The sim also recognises that if I move the lever to 75% it arms the speedbrakes for landing. However when landing, the speedbrakes remain armed and do not deploy. I assume because the lever is in the 75% position (and doesn't have a servo to automatically move it to the extend position). Is there any way to still get the sim to automatically deploy the speedbrakes on landing when I move the lev…

  22. I am working in FSX SE and have the Bravo tap-dancing for me. But for a couple of my Milviz GA models, namely the B55 Baron and C310R, I wish to assign the keyboard "H" key to a button on the Bravo's row of 7 buttons. That to turn Carb Heat on/off. The only two Conditions or Variables I find available in the Bravo's FSX Confgurator app are "Carb Heat Available" and "Apply Heat to Systems" . Neither of those work. I cannot determine a method to assign a keystroke in the configurator, and FSUIPC is not recognizing Bravo buttons on that row.

    I've started having problems with my controls for MSFS. I have CH Pro Pedals, Saitek Throttle Quadrant, a Logitech Joystick, a Goflight LGT11and a Vrinsight MCU all connected via a USB 3.0 Compatibld Hub which is plugged into a USB 3.0 socket (Blue) They have started to freeze during operation, particularly noticeable during taxi, take off, approach and landing. The Main problem is the throttle, Rudder and joystick freezing for about 10 seconds, which means I taxi on to the grass or into buildings, or the controls freezing during landing The mouse which is also connected wirelessly to the hub is not affected, and can be used to pull throttle back if quick eno…

    Hi, I´ve got a Wheels stand pro v2 with my logitech yoke and pedals, and I´m thinking about upgrading to the honeycomb yoke. I´d love to know if someone managed to make the yoke work with the wheel stand pro or to see if there´s a modded solution for it. I don´t have a table close to me to attach the honeycomb there so the stand is the only way I have for now. Cheers Carlos
