Lesson Learned...
« on: September 22, 2007, 04:46:01 AM »
So a few days ago I had to reinstall windows and forgot to save my AH2 settings. Last night I decided to download it and get my controls set up. I jumped in and set up each button on my x52 like I had them before and tried to set the sensitivity how I had it as well. I jumped into furball after furball and noticed I was not able to turn as well as before and I kept stalling out when going over the top (nose up). Well I spent hours recalibrating, checking my settings, reinstalling drivers, and getting shot down more times then I could count.

And then I remembered stall limiter.... :cry :cry :furious

Once you get it all back, SAVE those settings!

Burn em too a CD. Stash em on a thumb drive. Hide em on the wifes computer. Take a copy to work, whatever it takes.

:rofl I had the same situation about a month ago.  Everyone I fought was kicking me around like a newb in the stall, I thought my stik was broke.  After about two days of getting slapped, I noticed that my stall limiter was on!!DOH!!:eek:
