throtte calibrate saitek quadrant

[Gerard Val]

Hi,

 

I need some help. I can not get the calibration right for the throtle. instead of the range -16384 to 16383 I get 0 - 16384. so only half the range of the lever is used.

 

I have the latest fsuipc and fsx.

 

Thanks for help

 

Gerard.

Where are you reading thes numbers in any case?

 

Whatever range you get doesn't matter at all for calibration. FSUIPC maps the range you do get, whether it be 0-127 (as in the case of PFC devices) or 200-9000 or whatever, it's the calibration process which maps it to the values needed in FS. 

 

I suspect you are misunderstanding something. Have you read the relevant part of the User Guide? I recommend you refer to the Joystick Calibration chapter and follow the numbered steps there.

Hi Pete,

Thanks for your reply. I will read again the guide, and give it a try.
