Saitek Flight Multi & Radio Panels

Featured Replies

The panels occasionally stop working, meaning they freeze, during FSX operation. And with some aircraft they seem to be more sensitive when dialing in data. Download of latest drivers did not help. Both panels are plugged into a powered 2.0 USB hub. System is I7 950 3.06 with 6 G Ram Windows Vista 64. Appreciate comments, recommendation. Thanks!ervski/erv

Just in case someone else has this problem, I plugged both units into the computer with 12 hours of operation with no problem. Not sure why they don't like my powered USB hub.

Hi. I have saitek radio and multi panel too. And they are connected to my pc via usb hub. In the middle of flight especially radio panel and sometimes multi panel freezes and it makes freeze FSX too. I use Fsuicp 4.53 and squawk box for online flight. I guess you had same issue. Do you think they freeze because they are not connected to pc usb directly? Did you solve this problem by connecting them to pc directly? Thanks for help.Guntac

Good morning Guntac,Right now I am having FSX problems using Win 7 64 and will be going back to XP 64 to help my problem so answer is it helped my panels to connect direct to the pc rather than using a hup. I know this has helped my Multiplayer friend as well becuase he doesn't haver the freeze problem. So my recommendation is to connect your panels direct to pc and not via hup. Good luck to you. erv

HelloNot all hubs are created equal. My Goflight units work great on old Belkin F5U027 USB1.0 hubsBut totally freak out on Belkin Tetrahubs and lots of other USB2.0 hubs that I triedTo that end I have been stockpiling the F5U027's whenever I see them cheap.

Very interesting! Thanks much for info! My panels don't like the Powered CyberPower 2.0 four adapter hub. erv

Thnx for all info guys. I have just 2 usb ports in my computer one of which I use for my mouse and there is one left for all my yoke rudder 2 quadrant multi and radio panel. SO I am using a usb hub for them and i use one of my yoke usb port too but rest of 4 usb are coonected to my usb hub. I will try to unplug my mouse and use that usb port for my radio panel. I hope it works.thnx again guys.Guntac

Hi guys. I tried to plug my radio panel into my pc usb port directly but samt hing happened. It still freezes and makes FSX frozen too. I realize that it happens once I turn Squawkbox4 on for online flight. When I just play with fsx it works . I beleive this radio panel has a compatiablity issue with squawkbox4 program. Is there anyone who has same problem or can confirm me? Thnx a lot.Guntac

I have each plugged into its own USB port. And when FSX comes on, BOTH light up, simple as that. Never had any problems. Even though somebody pointed out that they do NOT use FSUIPC, they connect to my FSUIPC of FS9. I do not understand, but everything is working just GREAT.Abe
