I am having a problem with the third sliding thing on my CH Flight Yoke USB. I just got this package off of ebay along with the USB Pro Pedals (Which I have added the toe brakes, rudder, etc), and everything else is working fine. Even if I go into the Joystick Properties, it has the prop axis greyed out... Anyone know why? Right now, I've just made the left slider the throttle and the middle the mixture and just left the third one unassigned because nothing recognizes it.

Using FS2000 Standard on Windows ME
Duron 700
320 ram

Thanks,

Let's see:

My CH products dealer told me never to use the install disks from CH itself, Windows uses better drivers according to him. Maybe you can re-install the driver perhaps and use the Windows install CD. I had the problem that FSUIPC mixed up some settings (maybe I did myself, I do not know), but I deleted the two FSUIPC files and reinstalled this.

Maybe this will help you out.

I'm using CH usb yoke and pro pedals and a Logitech joystick(Wingman force).
I followed the instructions on the CH website and the readme from FSUIPC and everything was working like a charm.
When CH released the new control utility there was also an instuction on how to install/uninstall the drivers, it worked very well for me too.
I'm using FS2000 PRO, FS98 and CFS with Windows ME on a PIII 450 mHz, 256 mb ram.
It works very well with these 3 pieces except it's very hard to look forward right in FS2000 (No problem in CFS and FS98) and I can only use the buttons one controller because they mix up.
I would like to setup 2 of the 3 levers on the yoke for throttle 1 and 2 in FS2000, but I cant figure it out. Does any one know howto ?.
I'm using the joystick for spoiler(X- axis) and I assign the trim to the throttle when I fly GA aircraft without autopilot in FS2000.

Sorry I came a little of topic, but my advice is try the CH website, it worked for me.
