I am trying to use an older Saitek yoke, throttle quadrant and rudder pedals with FSX Acceleration in the Kiosk mode. The controls work fine once an airplane is booted up, but I have been unable to find any way for the yoke, etc. to start the program in Kiosk. Other yokes/sticks have a trigger that starts the program, the Saitek yoke has no trigger. While the trigger on Thrustmaster starts the program and maps as the #1 button and operates the wheel brakes once the program has started, and the #1 button on Saitek similarly operates the brakes once the program has started, but the Saitek button will not initiate the program. We're trying to do this without a mouse or keyboard. Do you have any suggestions? I'd be most grateful for any help.
