Hey guys,

 

I just got the Saitek pro flight yoke system yesterday, and what i am having problems with, is the rudder. 

How do you set up the rudder? Without the pedals? I tried binding the rudder yaw left/right to a button on the yoke itself, but it's a ###### staying on the centerline while taxiing and takeoff.

 

Any suggestions/solutions?

 

 

Best regards,

Kim.

Not possible to set it good way without pedals. I use my rudder joystick cause I couldnt afford pedals now.

Get yourself some pedals. And I'd get the Cessna productline next time, they are much better quality (I have used both).

Best get pedals, (needs an axis controller for rudder not buttons)  alternatively you can use the yoke only as long as you have auto rudder selected in the FSX control set up, this will allow you to steer/exit runway etc using the yoke

True about Cessna - got it here and it's great. As I'm flying 737 NGX I don't use rudder that much if I'm not crabbing or taxiing so I decided to stay with extra joystick, but yes pedals is best way.

can't use just put a tick in Autorudder in settings/realism.

 

 that way your Yoke does both

It is possible to do using FSUIPC.

 

Assuming you have it, open FSUIPC, click on Axis Assignments and just add the Rudder to the Aileron Axis by clicking the second box down and assign it to rudder, and bobs your uncle.  I use the same combination for rudder and steering tiller, works like a charm.  However, you will need to fine tune them after as the rudder would be too stong.

 

Happy new year and enjoy the yoke.

Thanks for the tip, that works fine!
