Yoke/Throttles & Yoke Randomly Stopped Working

Featured Replies

Greetings!  I am hoping someone can help me with a random problem with FSX that popped up today.  

 

I'm using FSX Acceleration Pack on a Windows8 64bit PC with a Saitek Yoke/Throttle and CH Products Pedals.  I've been using this set up for years with no issues.

 

I was starting a flight in FSX with Aerosoft's AirbusX Extended.  I taxied to my runway and began my take off roll when my plane suddenly started to pull to the left.  My pedals were completely unresponsive (brakes & rudder).  I was able to take off with my yoke and then immediately paused the flight and chekced my pedal's calibration to which they were not responding.

 

When I went back into the flight my plane dove into the ground and my yoke/throttles were now not working at all.

 

I rebooted the computer, switched both USB ports my pedals & yoke/throttle were plugged into.

 

When I reload FSX and go to my settings, it shows they are both properly calibrated, read the movements of each device when in the calibration menus etc.  However, when I'm actually in the sim, there is absolutely no response at all (even the view button on my yoke).  

 

The throttles are at about 50% and the plane is turning to the left so something is sending something to FSX, but it isn't my hardware.

 

Any ideas?  Thanks guys!

If you use OpusFSX 3.40 that might be the problem. I found that out the hard way after endless testing and googlin. I found a work around. Open the camera options in opus then close it again and controllers are back.

 

If you don't use Opus, then....... Who knows.

I will try this too. I have the same problem. Thanks the first one who says he has a solution. Hope it works the same on my computer.
