Saitek Trim strange problem


Recommended Posts

My first post:  I have FSUIPC4 4.939 (registered) running in P3D 2.5; Saitek yoke, throttle, rudder, and trim fully controlled by FSUIPC (and thank you for that!).  My problem exists with or without TRrackIr 5 or ASN add on programs running.

 

When I start P3D for the first time after a PC boot everything works perfectly until I adjust the trim control; once the trim is used I lose all control inputs and FSUIPC not only quits working but is frozen to the point that the program cannot even be modified, nothing can be selected.  However, if I exit P3D and restart, everything works perfectly again including the trim.  The only difference in the FSUIPC4.log is the following entry in the first run:

 

1900890 ***** HID USB device reconnected: re-initializing FSUIPC connections

 

The line is gone from the log on the next run. I have changed USB ports and tried resetting the trim settings (after the first run) and the problem persists.  I look forward to any suggestions.

Sounds like a bad joystick driver. There's no way a simple reconnection will cause FSUIPC to hang and if FSUIPC hangs so does P3D, so you wouldn't be able to exit.
