Flight Sim X with Saitek x52

Hi,

There is a profile available on the Saitek website for FS2004. It may be worthwhile using this as your starting point and 'Tweeking' it as necessary.

I find the 2004 profile fine.

Kind Regards and Happy Christmas!

In the apparent absence of any profiles for this combination of FS X and the Saitek x52 flightstick and rudder, I'm trying, with considerable difficulty, to build one of my own.

However, at this stage I can't even seem to get the most basic things working - like trim for level flight or consistent climb/descent. I've allocated trim to the side wheel on the throttle, which gives a rather coarse control of sorts, but even when I take hands off everything and allow it to settle down, the elevator seems to continue to cycle up and down slightly, making the aircraft 'porpoise' in flight as it alternately climbs and descends about 500'. Anyone else experienced this or have any other advice on setting up this kit for this student pilot? (London is blanketed in thick fog this Xmas, so Sim Flight is my only option).

Hey FYI with the slight movements on the ele trim setting...I have mine set on the slider on the throttle quadrant and expierence the same problem...simple fix just set the sensitivity down...I have notice the rudder acts up alittle as well, but I just made a zero read/ null zone in the middle of rudder system through the initial setup...keep in mind all the joysticks with default settings on FSX are extrememly sensative and should be turned down. Hope it helps ya alittle GL.
