Saitek X52 pro joystick issue

[pointblank68]

Hi all,
I have just recently started playing TOH again arfter a long break and now have joystick issues, when I had none before the upates.

The problem is that the collective is unstable,ie its almost impossible to hold a steady altitude on the throttel indicator the green bar is irratic also the cyclik control is way to sencitive.

I have turned all the axis off completly and still the problem is the same please help as this has made playing a waste of time.....Also I have a friend who has same issue but on a different joystick.

Any help would be great thank you.

I had the same exact issue after downloading an update. It showed up in "Expantions" and was listed as jre. Being an update I thought it was good and put a check mark next to it that apparently made it kick in to the game. I had many negative issues after that. I had to dump the game and reload it. Once reloaded, it still showed up under "Expantions." I didn't put a check mark next to it and my game has been fine since. I don't know who that update was meant for but it screwed up my game. I hope this somehow helps.

Hello, I'm also having the same issue with the saitek X52 (non pro older version). The throttle control is much too sensitive as well as cyclic controls. I just downloaded and installed the game yesterday and haven't installed any patches. When I click "expansions" there is a box with jre checked but it is not highlighted. I can manually uncheck this box but it makes no difference.

I have also tried completely deceasing the axis sensitivty in the SST programming software but it doent fix the problem.

Thanks for any help.

Ok, Im all sorted now too. I just found out where the in game controller config was. duh! Its in options, controls, controller then customize. Here I was able to turn the sensitivy down on all the axis. I will still need to tweak it for a while but at least the heli is somewhat controllable now. lol :D
