Title: X-52 Pro Throttle
Post by: branch37 on June 25, 2010, 06:23:42 PM

Is there a way to set the X-52 Pro throttle so that when the throttle is at 75% the engine is at 100%, and when the throttle is moved to max WEP is engaged?

Yes, but not in AH itself. You will have to use the Saitek programming software. You can there program your throttle in a way, that pushing it beyond a certain value the keystroke "P" is triggered. I can't tell you the exact way how to do it right now, my GUI is German ;)

I have a logitech 3d pro and a X52 throttle ( the stick went south) how can I set the throttle as my main, it is a lot more sensitive that the 3d pro.

If the computer is still seeing th throttle, no problem. Just select it from the controller selection menue in "map controllers" and assign the throttle axis to it.
I did the same years ago, when I was using a X-45 throttle and a Cyborg joystick.

I'd suggest against that - instead use the pinkie switch on the X52 jstick to turn wep on and off
