Saitek Switch Panel

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

Just got this little gem and having a problem with my Saitek Switch Panel. All switches on the panel work fine with the aircraft, except a couple (Strobe and Beacon) which I will post on a new post. But my main concern is the start up knob. I can turn the knob on the panel and will do the same in the aircraft but when It gets to the start position it crashes FSX. Any ideas why? the aircraft starts OK if I use my mouse  wheel to turn the knob in the aircraft 

Regards

Timm

What drivers are you using?  If it is the original drivers that came in the box, that might be the problem.  I use SPAD drivers which are better.

Try that, it hopefully will sort it out.

Hi,

No still crashing FSX. One small question do I need to un-install the saitek drivers?

Hi,

 

Yes you need to un-install the Saitek drivers before you install SPAD.

Hi guys,

Would taking out the drivers effect the SST profile I use?
