Folks thanks very much for your time and responses to this. Just a follow up, i've returned the unit its been affected by the random button pressing bug as announced on the saitek forum so i'll be getting a brand new one soon. Just to post a fix for an issue i had with it and for the information of anyone else who comes to this forum with a simililar prolem, when the yoke was not being recognised as analogue, meaning i got the all or nothing effecft as detailed above the fix is Unplug the controller, click Start>Run, type regedit and click OK. In the Registry Editor browse to the following folders in order: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control MediaProperties PrivateProperties DirectInput And delete all folders beginning with VID_06A3. Plug the controller back in, rotate and twist the stick fully a couple oftimes and see if that has fixed it. If you are on Vista, you may also have to delete the entry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control MediaProperties PrivateProperties DirectInput And delete the VID_06A3&PID_xxxx folder. Thanks again George Tyrrell

Hey Pete its fs9 and fsuipc3 sorry should have specified. No it shows normal behaviour in game contorller in windows. very odd. when you say full fsuipc and not fsuipc joystick calibrations of fs assignments how do you mean? meaning can fsuipc still calibrate and make the x y axes less sensitive? If I enable the joystick in fs now will i loose all the button assigments that ive programmed through fsuipc? or can i dekete all assigments in fs9 and just use the axis assignments of fs9? sorry for all the questions many thanks george

Honestly Pete I've been trawling over the user guide and its just not working. I've done the throttles no problem i just cant get the axes of x or y to work properly. when you say calibrated in windows i assume you mean the control panel/ game controller way? i did that to ensure all axes and buttons were functioning. i also have the null zones and sensitivities as you require but i have the joystick disabled from fs? i do that because i want them calibrated and controlled from fsuipc. then i check the send direct to fsuipc option when assigning axes. i must say thats the fastest support reply i've ever seen!! edit: in fact now that i look closer, when i'm in the axis assigment page and move either the x or y axis the values in the box go from -16893 to 16893 instantly, they don't 'scroll' like the throttles do when i move them. in other words when i stop turing the yoke half way its instantly the top end of the range. do you know what could be causing this? incidentally earlier before i even went near fsuipc i simply plugged the thing in and used it on the default cessna. it gave no problems of this nature it was when i used it on the lds767 and hs trident i realized that it was too sensitive and registered fsuipc to see if i could calibrate it better.

Hello all, firstly having just registered a copy of fsuipc I'd like to say thanks for this wonderful tool. i've just recieved my saitek pro flight yoke and throttle and having set up the throttle quadrant to my liking I cannot seem to be able to configure the x and y axes properly. What I am currently getting is an 'on/off' type effect with a turn left on the yoke being a full turn straight away and similarly pushing or pulling the elevator results in the full range staright away if that makes any sense. Any help would be greatll appreciated, I have not installed the SST drivers on this. George Tyrrell
