Hi everyone,

I have a Saitek-x52(I  know!) and I need to map a hat switch om my flight-stick to p3d.............any ideas anyone?

what's your problem? I have an x52 and an x55 both mapped through FSUIPC - no issues.

If you don't use FSUIPC map it through the control assignment menu in P3D.

thanks Vic  but their is no mention of the Hat switch anywhere on the control assignment menu in P3D. I do have FSUIPC v5. but no luck

many thanks

Let me check when I get home. It's been a while since I mapped it and don't recall how I did it. If you haven't seen it -

this is what I used to map my controls.

Hi Patrico, is it the hat switch for panning the view? I just retired my x52, but in my case I needed to change the FSUIPC option from raw to direct input for my hat switch to control panning of the view. FYI I've read that this might delete some key assignments in your control options menu.

thanks Vic unfortunately that link does not cover the P3d  v4 platform

Works just fine on P3Dv4. I still use it when I need to set up a new system.
