can u mix 3 stick types?
« on: May 23, 2003, 04:28:44 PM »
So like, dudes, I love my ms twisty stick using pedals, sure did like my saitek's throttle. I am wondering:confused:  if you can configure a usb nightmare with the pedals, ms stick, and saitek all connected, but with the x/y axis assigned to ms stick, and throttle axis assigned to saitek, with z axis assigned to pedals? If I can pull this off, I may avoid spending another $120 for the ch throttle.

Thks in advance

 Yeah you can do it. I ran like that for a few months before I gave the Saitek to my son. I am using MSFF,CH Pro throttle and pedals.
 I like the Ch Pro throttle  a lot more than the Saitek tho because  of all the extra buttons. If you do decide to get the CH Pro throttle look at http://www.provantage.com they where the cheapest  when iI got mine  $99 I think.

cool, i may end up springing for the ch throttle too, i like the ms stick's feel better than the saitek, but the saitek throttle is already paid for. How did you get the 3 configured together? currently I can get either stick configured to work with the pedals using the ch control manager, but have not got ah to recognize the axis' on the second joystick.

thks :)

I use Aces high mapper only  to  assign them. X&Y to your stick. Z to throttle and the AH mapper has a separate rudder selection. I cant post pictures cause I don't have a host. If you post your email up I will send you some screen shots.

i can't seem to get the saitek to show any axis response while the ms stick is present, both the ms stick and the pedals work, but the saitek is dead as a door nail, your work around is greatly appreciated:)
