Saitek Calibration

[g1000pilot]

Hey guys,

I have been really happy with FSUIPC4 and the added functionality I am getting with my Saitek yoke, quadrants, and pedals! I just wanted to verify that the only calibrating you need to do with FSUIPC4 is clicking the "Set" button in the calibration tab. Can you confirm this? It seems I get full range of motion in the ailerons slightly before reaching the limits of the yoke.

Thanks guys!

No. Clicking the top left "set" button meterly enables the calibration. Then you calibrate using the other three "set" buttons. There are step-by-step instructions for doing this in the User guide. Please follow them.

That's good -- it ensures you can always reach the full range despite minor variations in your axis readouts (due to things like age, temperature, humidity, voltage levels).

Thanks for the clarification! I will get on this tonight.

The Calibration went well with the exception of Captain Sim 757 4.3. When I pressed the rudder all the way in the plane slows to zero and stalls. I have a feeling this is just Captain Sim as I have many gripes with this plane. Do you know if the Level D is working ok with everything?
