Elevator trim control acceleration fix

[nibake 2]

Hi and greetings, new to the forum.

A friend recently got the full gamut of controls, including a Saitek elevator trim wheel. Everything works great except we are having problems with the trim wheel. I think the problems are caused by the control acceleration. The trim wheel movements should correlate with the simulated trim wheel movements, but they don't. Slow movements do almost nothing and fast movements result in extreme changes, normally all the way to one stop or the other.

 

Googling and reading I've heard that there is an FSUIPC button to disable control acceleration. I don't have anything against that, but I don't think we should need to buy additional software to get Saitek controls to work probably with FSX. I saw some recommendations for SPAD, does anyone know if that will fix our problem?

 

Also, if there is some other way to disable that acceleration, what sensitivity setting would give us 1=1 input ? Thanks in advance.

Apparently my topic got "lost in the soup." Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, please! It's a real bummer having new expense sim controls and not being able to use them.
