Title: Saitek AV8R Controller Help
Post by: flypuck on November 08, 2008, 01:36:19 PM
Hi All,
Just getting started with AH and am having trouble getting the AV8R to work.
I am starting in the "practice off line" part to get the hang of it.
The buttons and the hat seem to work ok but it will not control the airplane (F6F) control serfaces.
I have calibrated it in Windows and in the game but still no luck.
Any clues what might be going on?
Thanks for the help!

Puck

You have to assign the axises to the stick. Go HERE (http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/controllers/controllers.htm) on the trainers page to see how to do it.

<S> Flypuck! Someone who actually LOOKED at the game before they jumped on the runway :salute. Get the basics down--taking off, shooting drones, landing...before you start the clock on your 2 weeks. Make the most of them. (Also helpful is having the '.commands' up on the help page while in game---simply alt-tab to look something up while in flight)
