Saitek X52 HOTAS problems

Featured Replies

Pitch and roll are unusable. Initially, inputs don't result in much movement of the stick / yoke (in the game), but then suddenly there is too much and the aircraft rolls or climbs/dives uncontrollably. I've also noticed that returning the joystick to the centre position, does not result in a corresponding movement in the game. 

In MSFS calibration everything works fine (in Windows too) but none of the settings (e.g. dead-zone, sensitivity, etc.) fix the issue in gameplay. I have up to date drivers, and the X52 does work fine in other games like X-plane or DCS.

I am currently using an old Logitech Extreme 3D in MSFS and that works without an issue.

Anyone else had any similar issues? I would appreciate the help because whilst the Logitech Extreme is OK-ish, I would prefer a full HOTAS setup. 

Thanks

I have an X52 Pro -and have struggled with the appalling Saitek drivers for ages. I bought the paid version of FSUIPC years ago (and then the MSFS version) and found that though it doesn't cure everything, it does seem to help.

hmmm...I've never used the Saitek drivers.  I just let it be found in Windows.  Works fine.
