Saitek Controller Problems

Featured Replies

Hi I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. I have a Saitek setup which includes a Yoke, two throttle quadrants ,TPM , multi panel and pedals. What is happening intermittently is either the TPM or the quadrants start misbehaving and the motions on the controls get erratic. Most of the time things work great but when this happens all hell breaks loose. I know all the controller setting and know how to make them work in harmony so there isn't a lack of knowledge on my part as for configurating the separate devices. Does anyone know where FSX stores the controller info and how it works. I can disconnect a controller reboot my machine start up FSX ck the controller tab to make sure it's not present, then close FSX plug-in the controller start FSX ck the controller tab and find that it is there with the same settings as I have assign to it before. So FSX must be storing the CFG some ware else. Also I have ck each controller outside FSX with no issues, so this it seems to be a FSX thing I assume. Any help would be appreciated. By the way if I do a system restore this seems to fix this issue, but it will rear its ugly head again in a month or two.Josh

I don't know if this will help...but I was having intermintent problems also....I switched to SPADE...checked the entries in the proecesses with task manager and found multiple entries that caused conflicts. I removed them...use only the spade drivers and have not had a problem since. These were all recomendations from the guys on here and it helped a great deal. Also,,,,I changed the power managment settings to none...that was causing things to happen after a long flight and I went to use the yoke or throttle and the USB port was idle. Hope this gives you some areas to poke around in.Jeffrey :)

The Spad drivers don't control the yoke, the quadrants and the pedals so they will not fix the problem. I recommend using fsuipc. make sure to disable all the fsx controls and to uninstall the saitek driversFollow this guide:http://www.tropicairvirtual.com/company/misc/utility/tutorial/fsuipc-guide-v1.pdf
