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

hi everyone, since 2 days I try to configure my brand new GF-TQ6. The problem: fsuipc 5.103 (reg. version) doesn`t recognize the throttle. In the P3Dv4.2 control options I can see the TQ6 and it works, nearly. But not exactly 100%. Does anyone have any idea? Dieter

I just replaced my ch yoke with a Saitek. The yoke mount interferes with my keyboard, mouse and table legs. I am thinking of getting either a 6" C or F clamp. Do you think that one will be good enough or should I get two? Is one better than the other?

seems like new kid in town, anyone with experiences opinion can post comments / review, maybe even compare to the Brunner FFB Yoke CLS or the CLS-B-NG Yoks. Once thing I thing I already noticed, no Hat Switch .. & a bit more expensive than Brunner Cheers Yair

Hi all, I have purchased the 777 desktop yoke from ACE and paid through transferwise. They successfully received the money in 9 July, 2018 and said it'll take 10 days. Alright, so after 10 days (19 July, 2018), they said the yoke needs to be powder coat and tested, sure! I'm fine with that. Then later in 25 July, 2018, they said it'll be ship that week, but nothing happened. After that, I sent them tons of messages on messenger and got a replied two days ago, on Tuesday (31 July, 2018), they said they'll ship my one, but until now nothing happened I don't have the tracking number even I kept asking them through messenger and email, however, no replies from them. I tr…

The subject pedals, which I have only had (along with their companion yoke and throttle sets) for around 6 months, went "Tango Uniform" recently. The brake axes work properly but the rudder axis does not. It goes to half-travel to the left and then immediately snaps to the right. Pressing the right pedal does nothing. So that would seem to indicate a hardware issue. I know...they're cheap and I shouldn't have too high expectations. Whatever... So I reached out to Logitech and they followed up with a detailed request. They want me to "Cut all cables belonging to the product." and "Disable the product and the internal chips in a safe manner that clearly shows in…

Not seeing any hits there, so posting here that I am looking for a Saitek TPM module to help me in training my grandson. No need to respond with "collectors" level pricing. Just want a functional unit for training my grandson.

I am looking for spare parts for my Saitek Pro Flight Combat Rudder Pedals. Over the years, I sort of developed a love-hate relationship with said pedals. The hate part coming from the knowledge that things could break down. But the love part wants me to keep my feet softly caressing on the pedals. So I am looking for another rudder pedal that I could use for spare parts. In order to make it economical, the pedals should be defective, or near defective, so that the owner would like to get red of it, for a reasonable fee. Any takers?

Something that has occurred to me as I look into getting a high end yoke early next year...the better ones (like Yoko) have a more realistic physical range of elevator axis travel and thus you are going to have to sit significantly further away from the desk than if you were using a joystick for example. I'm now trying to visualise having sufficient room between myself and the yoke to allow full elevator axis control whilst also having my keyboard within easy reach. I guess one answer is to have the keyboard right along the edge of the desk just to the left or right of the yoke (and the mouse on the corresponding side). Another thing I thought of was investing in a basic …

Hi, I bought a 737 throttle/reverser attachment for Saitek Quad. Works great with the 737 for throttles and reverse thrust. For flying the 747, I have set throttle 1 for engines 1-2 and throttle 2 for engines 3-4. This works fine, but unable to set Rev.1 for engines 1&2 and Rev 2 for 3&4. Have a registered version of FSUIPC and am using FSX. Have engines 1 and 2 mapped to Rev lever 1, and 3 and 4 mapped to reverse lever 2 but Rev 1 only works for Eng 1 and Rev 2 for Eng 2. Have looked through the forum but unable to get a solution. Would appreciate help and suggestions

Purchasing a new flightsim computer sometime in the near future. Probably going with Jetline Systems and a new I9 overclocked CPU’s once they get them on the bench and stable. I’m moving into flying commercial jets after years of flying piston AC. Going to retire here shortly and I intend to fly heavy metal and work on my short game. I have a TM Warthog HOTAS and Throttle now. I dabbled for a while in DCS but found I was not as interested in learning weapon systems and blowing XXXX up as I thought I would be. I do enjoy flying the Spitfire and will probably return to it at some point in time. I also GREATLY enjoy flying my Manfred Jahn C47. A LOT! I pulled …

Hi guys, hoping someone can tell me where I'm going wrong. Running FSX on WIN 10. Saitek Mulitfunctionc panel, Radio panel and switch panel all worked fine (using FSX default 747-400). But as soon as I try to get a FIP going it stops the ACT/STBY buttons on the radios working (all of them!). The buttons are fine. Problem still exists if I then disconnect the FIP. Tried uninstalling Logitech FSX plug in and using SPADnext but I get the same issue. Not a power issue as the FIP plugs directly into the MOBO, (besides the issue is still there if I disconnect it anyway). A full reinstall of FSX from scratch didn't sort it either.

Hello, This MCP is designed for a B737, Does anyone have experience in flying the B777 and B747 FSX Steam with PMDG on Windows 10, I wonder if at least the controls work for all aircrafts? I mean Speed, Altitude, HDG, V/S and AP. Cheers

Following an extended simming layoff a year or so ago, I found that my Saitek radio panel selector switches were very difficult to turn. Even with semi-regular use, things have progressively worsened to the extent that I now have to leave the top selector on NAV1, and make the lower radio work for all other choices. However the second switch, thought not initially as bad as the first, is now getting progressively worse as well. After the unexpected luck I had with clearing up my throttle quadrant spiking, I tried spraying contact cleaner around the edges of the switch hoping it would penetrate. Unfortunately, the magic didn't happen. Anyone else have this problem…

Hi everyone I am putting up my Open Cockpits 737 EFIS/MCP/FMC V3 units for sale.

SO I just received my GoFlight VantEdge yoke and I am experiencing, for lack of a better term, notchiness in the elevator around the center. The aileron is incredibly smooth, but the elevator is really bad. It feels like the metal shaft is rubbing along the case or something else internally. I really would have expected more from a $500+ piece of equipment. Anyone else experience this?

Hi I just bought this product about 6 months ago and have since then broke 2 of the lever pots. The plastic sleeves where the lever fits broke on one. the second one broke at the base. I am going to send it back to be repaired {I think this is possible} I am surprised and disappointed with this happening to this expensive product. Anyone else out there had this problem with Goflight products? Paul

I have a saitek pro flight yoke with a throttle quadrant and it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. It happens every couple minutes. I tried changing usb ports and using a usb adapter but nothing works. I'm using windows 8.1.

Greetings. I noticed that the yoke is not moving full range anymore. Ailerons seem working fine, but an elevator is not moving full range. This is as afar as it goes: Also, the yoke shows as a keyboard in my devices, not like a controller. I wonder why? New drives is installed from GF website. The Yoke is not calibrated/assigmed in FSUIPC. Thanks for looking.

Hi everyone - I am having an issue with my Throttle Quadrant that thought someone might have run across. I calibrated everything in control manager (direct mode etc) and in FSUIPC did the calibration and detent for reverse thrust on all 4 throttle controls. Then in FSX in control options set each throttle up to its correct axis. When I go to use the throttles they work up/down but as soon as I go into reverse the throttles go dead (can't move them out of reverse). The only way to fix this is to go into FSX options again and deleted the axis assignments and redo them - but as soon as you go into reverse again - they go dead.... Any idea what conflict/setting I need to look…

Hallo, i already own a T16000m which works fine with airbus FBW simulation. But am now looking for a force feedback device, particularly with mjc Q400 and fsforce. Is there any recommendation beside SW ffb2? What about logitech force 3d pro or wingman force 3d?

I have a problem v Aerosoft Airbus_Pro My thrust levers work super when thustlevers 1 and 2 move forward, the problem is when there is a reverse thrust. Thottle 1 is good but when thustlevers 2 is going to reverse nothing happens but thrustlevers 1 goes in reverse i am using FSUIPC5 and P3D4,3 HELP Kim

I know I am not the first (or likely last) to post here about ACE products, however, I started a new topic as I am looking for your help too.... I ordered 2 x 777 desktop yokes in March of this year. I was told it would be a month or 2 until shipment, which was fine. Then as that time came round there was no contact at all for weeks. Finally I got an answer saying the yokes were in production and are a couple of weeks out. Finally a few more months went by and I heard from them Aug 4th saying that the yokes had finally arrived with them and they would ship Wednesday the following week. It is now several weeks later, and again I have since heard nothing. This stor…

If anyone is using one of these units with a desktop and using an ethernet cable, could you PM me. Having a few issues with the setup and just want to chat something through. cheers erich

Anyone try this with P3D / XP? 😉 https://www.whirlwindfx.com/pages/about-html
