I'm trying to calibrate my Saitek Pro Flight throttles using FSUIPC but I'm having trouble. In the Axis Assignment tab, when I move the throttle which is in the Z axis, the numbers don't move - they just sit at 16383. I've tired everything.

 

Thanks for the help.

it's probably picking up another axis before you're able to move the one you want. Try hitting the "Rescan" button in the axis assignment tab a few times while moving the axis you are trying to work with.

I had issues with this too and found that eventually, I had to "rescan then calibrate 1 lever, accept it and close FSUIPC, then go back in to do the next one, otherwise it would still think I was messing with the previous one.

 

Same for some buttons too on my 2 throttle quadrants.

I don't know if this means anything, but I went into settings - controls and brought up the game device calibration to try and re-calibrate the software. When I got to the Z axis calibration and moved the the throttle it didn't register here either. I don't think this has anything to to with FSUIPC.
