control modes??

[homersipes]

I have an x52 and with my new computer EVERRY TIME I make my first flight, it says switched to controller mode3 even though my controller is still on 1.  when on control mode3, none of the buttons work right.  so I ditch and restart flight and it stays in control mode1.  I checked the box in controls or where ever it is that says automatically set control mode.  Befor I checked that box, I had to go in and set it to mode 1 on every flight.  This never happened before on my old computer.  How do I fix this its quite annoying

not sure...first thing that comes to mind is check both your keyboard and controller bindings and see what buttons you have set to switch around between the different control modes

maybe you're pressing something that changes you to control mode 3 and this just needs to be unbound. or you can bind something else to change you to control mode 1 and then you won't have to end your sortie and re-up.

Copy mode 1 to mode 3.
