X52 throttle problem

[Modas]

Hi Guys -

I've done a search and didn't find a solution to my problem.

I'm using the SST software to map all my buttons in AH.   I was wrong, the SST profile seems to be disabling more than the throttle >


What I'm getting is the axis being reversed.  Low throttle = max throttle in AH and vice versa

NOW before ya'll say "CLICK the INVERT AXIS", this is what happens when I do.

The raw scale and the real scale reverse.  The raw sliders stays at the top of the scale (with min throttle) but the REAL slider goes to the bottom of the scale and corresponds correctly with the throttle.  I've found that if I remove the SST profile from the X52, the throttle works correctly, but obviously I now don't have the buttons mapped the way I want them to.

Do I HAVE to use the stick mapping in AH to get this to work??

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

have you reassigned the ah axis to the throttle since the last patch?

I had to with my X45. that and the trims, trigger, and a couple of others

Hi Eagler -

Yep, I've assigned the throttle to the Z-axis (not the slider).  AH reconginizes that the throttle is there.  The axis are reversed and the "invert axis" does even stranger stuff.

I'm finding that if I have the SST profile in the x52, the J/S doesn't work at all.  I need to unload the SST profile, and map in AH.

The problem is, I'm only using about 1/4 of the functionality with the AH mapping because I can't use the "SHIFT" function, which I use extensively on my views.  I also had a lot of macros programmed as well.

Try using Windows Update to get the latest X52 driver, if you haven't yet. It's listed under "Hardware (optional)" on the left, IIRC.
