October 29, 201312 yr As far as I can see from the Belkin website, the Nostromo N52 isn't manufactured any more. Can't see anything equivalent on their site at all in fact. (I think Razor has taken over manufacture of these gamepads?). I have one that works OK, but the red switcher button is playing up. I 100% need this for my flightsim and am bracing myself for it giving up the ghost altogether any time soon (I've had it years and years). Amazon shows some 'Nostromo' pads, but they are not by Belkin. If I do get a replacement, I want one that will automatically read my .ldt and .n52 profiles - I don't fancy the idea of starting them all from scratch! (In Amazon reviews BTW, people say they have replaced their original N52s as they didn't work in Windows 7 x64. Odd, as my N52 works fine in this O/S). Be that as it may, has anyone got a Razor Nostromo Keypad', or similar? Does it read .n52 profiles & .ldt loadouts? If not, any you know that do? Maybe I should bid for old Belkin Nostromo N52s on eBay.. Thanks, Martin Martin Stebbing, EGLF (UK)
October 31, 201312 yr I replaced an N52 with the Belkin N52te some time back and the profiles did not transfer. So I doubt you're going to have any luck with your current profiles on the Razer version. Currently I use a Logitech G13 pad for FSX view controls...lots more buttons than the Nostromo pads.

October 31, 201312 yr Author Thanks for the information. If I can't get a replacement for the N52 on eBay or wherever, I may look at the G13. If I have to rewrite all my profiles, so be it I guess. Martin Stebbing, EGLF (UK)
