Hi guys.
I have bought an x52 joystick, and have spent some time getting it setup. I have come across a problem that I can't find a solution for.
Basically if I load a profile into the stick the mouse wheel on the throttle lever stops working
this happens even if i don't change any of the configuration. Several people have posted on other forums about this but there aren't any answers forthcoming... but i imagine someone here will have solved this :wink: The only thing I can think of is a conflict between the scroll wheel on the stick and my mouse, if that is the case, i'll dig out a mouse with no wheel.
I have been, and want to keep using this for the elevator trim, but this problem essentially means that i can't change anything in the SST software.
Aside from this little issue I'm really impressed with the x52, it is significantly better than the sticks i have used previously. There are only 2 other things that annoy me. The spring tension - a 'wet noodle' is the best description i have heard so far (gonna fix that) And the 'precision' slider... which is anything but precise. For the price though, you cant go wrong with the x52.
Thanks for your time, and any suggestions
Edit: Also has anyone found a way to get the MFD to display information from IL2 yet? I read about the device link mod, should I be waiting on that for this to become possible?
