my problem is this, i have a Cirrus 2 Precision Flight Control yoke with attached throttle and attached avionics and rudder pedals. I installed the latest FSUIPC4 as well as the latest PFCFSX driver update. the console is the old type with the serial impute so i bought a serial to USB adapter. with all this installed and "functioning properly", all i get on the FSUIPC4 test page is a bunch of mixed signals. when i move the throttle up and down it does EVERYTHING(gear up and down, radio switch, master on and off) but move the throttle up and down. when i am actually in the game, the yoke as well as all the other buttons don't work. i am at a lost as what to do as i also have ELITE and on the sim everything works fine. please help.
