Sure, at least in AH.  AH allows you to set a seperate controler for each axis if you want.

I have an X45 now...The rudder is one the throttle side. Underneath the throttle. I didn't really like the twisty stick when I had my FFB Microsoft.

Is there a similar setup on that X52? I can lock the twist part yet still have a rudder there and not the keyboard?


Yes, you can lock the twisty rudder with a rudder lock button or just set the deadbands to be much less sensitive on it. And yes you can set up a rudder with many other hat or slider switches on the throttle or stick.

If only HT could give us a joystick band for ZOOM...the slider would be perfect for it!


Read the review you did....Good Job.

I would really like to get one of these..but that Twisty Rudder thing...I just don't know that I want to go back to that. I don't use rudder pedals right now. My X45 with the rudder underneath I'm used to.

ANyway...Great read and thanks. I'll probably still check it out.:aok

I would like to have my trim tabs on the rotary switches. I cant find the rotary switches in the stick mapping, they just dont show up :(

if you have the programming software loaded, and banded them, they will not show up as axis.

in the programming you have to make them "analog" or whatever again.

I have an X-45 and after a year or so of heavy use I've been fairly impressed. My single biggest beef is the damned pinky switch designed to permanently deform my pinky, I think it was designed for folks with small hands. My 2nd beef is after a while the spring loaded centering device they use wears and causes some pretty massive "sticktion" I lube it occasionally and that helps. The plus side is that everything still works, if Saitek could put all the goodies on a traditional gimbaled base they'd have a winner.

So, how's the X52's pinkie switch? Any refinements to the centering device?

Thanks,
