  1. Hey Steve i retried this and a reboot and so far so good stable on desktop, going to mess around flying later to see if it stays connected. Fingers crossed Thank you
  2. Right on i have the regular one and do not have the usb version of the throttle. This is exactly why im going this route, eventually honeycomb or velocity will be my go to yoke. I also saw the Boeing one, which is very nice but expensive. This is my cheapest way for now. Luckily my rudder pedals will play nice with all other equipment.
  3. Thanks Steve, it is very strange, i will bite the bullet and buy another one, i already have the rudders and throttle so hopefully i have a faulty unit and a change will solve it. If that fails to ill move over to honeycomb but thats an expensive solution due to throttle being extra. Its too bad for this yoke, i love the feel of it and got many years out of it. Strange that some people have it working while others dont. I dont recall having this issue with fsx. I dont think its the sim tho. The reason i think its faulty or a power issue, is because my clock green light flashes and goes off everynow and then, thats when it disconnects. Had the green light not shown any signs of wear and tear i would of just blamed the driver or windows update. I have lots of equipment to figure out so this will be long before i get to fly an airliner as i did in the past. Next up mcp combo and fmc from vrinsight. Default planes for now and then FBW Wish me luck, this is all part of flight simulation lol
  4. Hi Steve, I tried via device manager to not allow usb to go in power saving mode. I'll your power plan setting idea. I tried installing saitek drivers same issue. Im plugged directly to laptop same issue on usb 2.0 or 3.0
  5. Hey all My pro flight yoke keeps disconnecting every now and then, im at my wits end trying to figure it out. Rudder pedals are fine. Pro flight yoke is an old saitek logitech pro flt yoke Any other ideas ive read to not use drivers from saitek as they cause more issues, so i updated with generic windows drivers Thought?
  6. Has anyone successfully got two monitors to work or is 1 monitor overall the better choice for performance. Im simming at 1080p. Im not a fan of 3d cockpit so need to find a perfect position in the cockpit to be able to see my controls easily, ex. Numbers, letters
  7. How do the aircrafts play with saitek joystick? As well as any add on hardware equipment like FMC, MCP combo pro. Specifically i have vrinsight. Just curious how easy you got hardware working, or anyone? I will be installing various equipment this weekend
  8. Ill probably do that but ive been simming since the late 90s. :) Ive owned every PMDG, Level D 767, gsx, Rex, active sky, fspassengers, specific payware airports, fs2crew, ultimate traffic. Sadly it all seems different now, some dont answer emails or out of business.
  9. Hey all, im curious on everyone's thoughts, for must haves to get going with a fresh install of msfs. I like flying airliners, real weather, real traffic/Liveries AI. A good realistic Payware aircraft. Realistic flight planning. Long or short haul flights. Thanks all, ive done so much research and im more confused now then i was before. Thoughts?
  10. Interesting i could swear up until a few months ago it was not working at all ill have to give thislatest update ago i uninstalled and removed all the hardware, had given up on it. I'm am more of a boeing flyer. Going to be interesting in the months ahead to get a good payware with all the hardware working. Hopefully i can sort it all out. I miss the experience and immersion i got with the level d 767 and all equipment working, with all the latest approach plates and airac cycles. I've been away for a good 8 years ouch. I still dont have as much time as i used too but need to get back into it. Ive messed with msfs on xbox although it looks and feels great, i cant compare to the way i used to sim. I ended up getting a beefy laptop as it's what we needed in the house for the time being. I needed the portability. A desktop will be in the works but not anytime soon. Are ohers coming from xbox or fsx, what your current ideal setup or aircraft? Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk
  11. I do have some external monitors much bigger in size which helps alot. As for payware, yes was trying to run old aircrafts lol not possible I like the idea of panning with yoke and custom views I'll play around with that for abit. Not sure but seems the pmdg might help with the virtual cockpit depending how the panels can be positioned to another screen Lastly hardware i speak of is vrinsight FMC and MCP. If these expensive pieces get to work i can almost fly the airliner with just those and use other screen for eye candy. Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk
  12. Appreciate it. Sig has been updated, See in the past i had external equipment and mcp pro non of which is compatible so this is all really new to me. I wish my equipment would become compatible Ive thought of reverting back to fsx but the graphics are keeping me here.
  13. Hey all, I have been struggling with a few paywares i had to work with msfs, having saidthat i realize it is not possible for the most part. My biggest challenge right now is getting used to 3d cockpit for airliners. Its Not as easy to fly compared to having everything on a 2d panel. Any suggestions as to how i should setup so i can enjoy flying the plane. Right now im restricted to smaller planes and vfr. Thank you Enzo
  14. Hey all I just downloaded the latest airac cycle for my FMC, however it does not match up 100% to the flight plan i load into fsx. Im guessing the reason is fsx navaids etc are outdated. Is there a fix to this, i solely use fsx flight planner due to atc. I dont create the flight plan within fsx, iuse real world updated plans. I'll either move away from fsx atc or update fsx "airac" if possible. If you have any recommendations that would be of great help, also i use ultimate traffic Live if someone recommends an ATC add on. Thanks
