ok so the ch pedals appear in the drop down list of devices.  you have clicked on it and checked the advanced box,

when you push on the pedals the advanced box moves with the rudder set to (yaw) rudder?

you have calibrated the pedals? 

now the only other thing i can think of is that you have assigned the x52 to a different control mode.  all bits of kit need to be assigned to control mode 1 or whichever mode you wish to use for planes

Bruv:   O.K. I think you get the prize: !!!

in the advance box for the Rudder as well as brakes, in my quest to try everything to fix this I had "scaling" as well as "invert" checked on all three axis:  for some reason this disabled them to work: after unchecking scaling and invert:  they all appear in the game.
Now I went back and checked "scaling" for the rudder (which is an option I want and it still works fine !

So  on to practice so you guys will have someone to shoot at soon:  Thanks to all who contributed:

AND for any one who reads this thread: I had all bugs fixed within 24 hours of my first post:  that is usually how this works: no need to get fizzed up and declare you are being ripped off for 14 bucks.

so there !!

glad you got it sorted! 

in reality once you know how the whole stick mapping works it is easy, probably more simpler than FA's.

Learning curve is pretty steep without padlock so make sure you get your views setup properly.  You can move around the cockpit with your arrow keys.  Page up is useful and hitting F10 will save the head position.   You can adapt every single view and then save it.

shift + F1 will enable full vis mode.

The game has hidden depths as you go.  It will take a few months to learn WTF is going in the MA.  I took it as a fresh challenge and with an open mind.  Eventually when you feel comfortable fighting you will appreciate everything else that the game offers.

Good luck!

cya up

hi,

here same system x52pro plus ch throttle plus ch rudder and xp OS. all work well. on x25 y axes corresponds to pitch not to elevator control. if u assign elevator control to y axes then u are not able to see any effect in game expecially when u have combat trim on. elevator control is a fine trim control on pitch control.

y as pitch control (not elevator trim)
x as roll control  (not aileron trim)
z as yaw control (not rudder trim)
etc.

salute!
