Saitek TPM throttle problem

[goincd3 0]

Hi all,

 

I reinstalled FSX this weekend and finally got everything set up last night. I have the Saitek Pro Flight Yoke, throttle quadrant, and TPM. On my old install, I had everything set up just fine after changing the sensitivities and null zones; on this install though, I am having some issues with getting the TPM set up. 

 

At first it was the mixture; it would jump around in the sim when I moved the plunger, not allowing me to go full rich without it twitching slightly. I managed to get that under control somehow but now the throttle is the problem. I can push the throttle in almost all the way, but with about a half an inch left, the ingame throttle jumps from about 75 percent to 100 percent with no in between. 

 

I have tried everything I could think of, including using both a registered FSUIPC version and FSX's settings to no avail. I even downloaded the drivers for the TPM to see if that would rectify the problem.  At this point I have ran out of ideas so I figured I would ask here. Thanks for reading!

I have the same problem and have tried everything including the advice by MADCATZ at Seitek.  TPM works like a dream in XPLane ... FSX is the problem ..... dont know why .... still waiting on Madcatz for further advice ...

Madcatz/Saitek never responded to my service ticket. Just closed the ticket a week later due to "inactivity" I returned my TPM to amazon and got a replacement, now everything works fine.
