  1. Hiya, and sorry to resurrect an older thread, but I just got a Saitek X55 HOTAS and I've run into the same problem with the stick not being recognised. It works fine in DCS World, but trying to program in FSX using FSUIPC has been impossible. I've opened a ticket with MadCatz Tech Support, but just found this in their knowledge-base: http://support.madcatz.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/486/176/im-running-on-win81-and-when-i-go-to-the-game-controllers--settings-tab-in-the-control-panel-the-throttles-settings-say-it-needs-to-be-calibrated-whats-going-on It would appear that for FSUIPC to hook the inputs from the stick its necessary for Windows to do its jobs and pick up the inputs in the first place, and Saitek have missed something when creating the drivers. Its obviously an ongoing issue with them, and hopefully they get it sorted soon. Is everyone above everyone reporting trouble with the X55 and FSUIPC running Windows 8.1 as well?
  2. I've started to have major problems with FSUIPC 4.928. It was all working nicely, but suddenly none of my control inputs are registering in FSX. Axis assignment and calibration all seem to work ok. Odd thing is it seems like I've also lost the ability to assign aircraft-specific profiles as well. If I click the checkbox I get the "Do you want to apply the general assignments to this aircraft?" dialogue sometime followed by the "Do you want to save changes first?" box. No matter what I click the aircraft-specific checkbox will not populate, and no axis inputs go to the sim. This only seems to be happening on the axis assignments page. The button programming page seems happy to let me use different aircraft profiles. Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, but no joy. I'm running FSX on Windows 8.0 64bit.
