Rudder pedels in Flight unlimited 3

Featured Replies

I have recently come back to flight unlimited 3.I now have a saitek yoke and throttle and a set of CH pedels.I cant for the life of me get the pedels to work in FU3I have read a few posts on here about diffrent control settings in the fu3.cfg file. None of these are working. Infact changeing settings make things worse, and a loose all my controls and im resorted to default settings.Would anyone have any way to help?

Hello there.Yes, I can try to help you a little with the problem.After applying the FU3 patch, US, UK, or German, depending on your cd'sThe install need some new files.Open your flt3.cfg file, use notepad and change the text to this: ;no_splashlanguage engIWorkHere ; what training mode should we run ? ; new stuffterrain_delta_time 5maximum_cap 280000000 use_haze_cache haze_cache_size 512000show_distant_mountains 1opt_wind_accuracy 2UsePuffCloudModels challenge_cheat ;NoGrids ;Nice, non-blocky haze may be achieved with;TerrainHazeMethod MT;but probably with a small framerate hit. ;Nice, non-blocky haze may be achieved with;HazeMethod Specular;but few 3D drivers support it properly.

While my CH pedals have been working fine for FU3 for years I haven't succeeded in setting up the Saitek yoke / throttle combo. Thus, I unhook the Saitek yoke and use a stick for FU3 and leave the yoke for FS and X-Plane. Since you listed the exact same hardware as I've got I'll be very interested in learning whether the Saitek yoke / throttle will work.
