Lost control axes

Featured Replies

Hi all,This is a strange one. My FS9 has lost the ability to recognise my control axes correctly. I use a CH USB yoke, and a Thrustmaster steering wheel for the rudder pedals. This has worked fine for more than two years. This morning, my sim will only behave as if there is a three axis joystick attached. ie, only elevator, aileron and throttle react to control input.Windows is seeing the devices correctly, and when I try to ressaign the axes under FS, it picks up the movement of all axes correctly. It just won't see them in sim (FSUIPC is not able to see the axes to process them)I copied an old FS.CFG in last night, but this was purely a backup made the last time I fiddled with it, and the controls have worked fine ever since (until this morning). I have also installed the latest security patches from MS this morning, but not XP SP2.Can anyone give me any pointers, as I'm at a loss.Cheers,Gareth Evans

Well, in the interests of completeness, I'm going to put in the solution I found, so that anyone with a similar problem in the future can get a few ideas.On the CH Yoke side, FS had reset the sensitivities for the prop and mixture to zero, with predictable results!On the Thrustmaster side, I uninstalled it, ran FS, exited, reinstalled the Wheel and then got FSUIPC to process it.Everything now works fine again.Cheers,Gareth Evans

I have a prop lever which does not work at all. The mixture does but not prop. How do I fix it?
