I just purchased the Saitek Pro flight yoke and throttle, after plugin, the system works fine for about 10 minutes, then it shut-off. You cannot even find the Yoke in the FSX controller. So restarting FSX it came back but a few minutes it disappeared in the FSX controller again and became no responsive in the FSX. Could anyone help with the issue.

Someone else had a similar issue posted 3 Aug 2014...  that person did a re-install to fix it.. but start by getting the latest drivers off Saitek website and it that doesnt work then get FSUIPC and program all the axis and buttons and see what happens .. (if FSX isnt recognising it then Im assuming you wont have to remove axis and button assignments from FSX first)

If you are using Windows 8, read the threads on that forum regarding solutions.
