Title: Rudder pedals and SFS throttle ?
Post by: BigCrate on March 04, 2002, 09:39:52 AM
Ok i have CH pro pedals and SFS throttle. I also have a MS sidewinder stick and I'm getting a flight yoke this week. I can't get my SFS throttle to work with my Sidewinder stick. And I already know my pedals won't work with my Sidewinder stick..
I have guts from a CH combatstick and throttle.

My ?s are

Can I use the guts from the combatstick as the 2 axis stick I need for the SFS throttle?? If I can't do the

How the hell do I get the SFS to work with my Sidewinder stick?

I can't make a custom 4 axis 4 button stick. Damn computer saids its not connected.
And when I use the SFS drivers with the Sidewinder stick and the SFS throttle. It also saids it not connected.

I know when I get my flight yoke I can use the SFS throttle with the flight yoke plugged into it.

But how do I use my rudder pedals???

I have a usb converter but evrytime I plug the pedals into it
I get no inputs from pedals. Do I need a joystick to use with the pedals?? And will guts from combatstick work???


BTW everything is gameport.....

Thanks

The sidewinder is gameport?  Ouch.  Not sure what you should do.  I guess buying a game card (with ports on it) or a sidewinder with usb may be the only fix.  I am sure the guts from your ch stick will work fine if you plug it into the sfs throttle.  I think you have to many gameport devices.  Have you tried plugging the rudders into the throttle?  DId that work?

I got everything to work.. I used guts from a combat stick i had with my rudder pedals. plugged in a usb port with a usb convertor. I bought a CH flight yoke and thats plugged in my SFS throttle. Only reason I needed to use my MS is I didn't have my yoke yet. ergRTC I owe u a beer for helping me woth this. You have ben the only person willing to help me. And I ya for it!
