Just setup my new Saitek yoke and throttle today, but the throttle is behaving very strange... Basically it's like the middle Rx throttle is controlling both the Rx and Ry axis in the software, and the right Ry throttle does not do anything in the software. I have made a quick video so you can see what I mean:

Seem's a bit strange, should I be taking this back??

Oops. Yup, that's a faulty unit. Send it back for a new one.

What drivers are you using?? I have four of those and only use 2 for the most part, I purchased 4 so I can set up two computers and use one for Low and slowe and the other for airliners etc. You need to be using the spad drivers. I think it is very unlikely it's no good right out of the box..................John

 

PS: My Saitec hardware has never given me any trouble at all by the way.

Both pots are somehow being manipulated by the center axis. It's a faulty device, not bad drivers.

I have had that same problem which turned out to be due to an error I made when setting it up using FSUIPC. Pilot error....John

But that wouldn't make it a driver level problem. What you see in the video is the properties/test page directly under Windows.

I fully understand that Zach and that's exactly what I saw when it happened to me LOL Go figure mate. All I am saying is it's worth a try because it worked for me. Gnite mate it's past this old guys bedtime lol.......John
