assigning six axis for 737 using two Saitek Throttles


Recommended Posts

Hi Pete, I need some help for the above topic please. I have two Saitek Throttle quadrants. One USB and the other part of the Saitek Proflight combo.I would like to assign in order : Trim, Speed Brake, Throttle 1,Throttle 2.Flaps with detent, Gear up/down. I have PMDG 737 NGx and the 777. All my controls are assigned with FSUIPC. I would also assign the switches to functions on the copy 737 throttles such as TOGA Engine cutoffs etc. I am using FSX. Is it possible to do. Your advice is appreciated. Gabriel

Yes, of course it is all possible. The axes should be pretty easy. Using an axis for Gear is one of the examples on Ranges shown in the user guide. For switch assignment to PMDG 737NGX functions you'd need to assign to their custom controls, as listed in their SDK's Header file.

 

I don't use PMDG aircraft and cannot help more directly, but the information is all there, and there is lots of stuff around -- check the User Contributions subforum here, for a start.
