hotas issues

[dannycnoble]

i currently use the Logitech x52 (basic the blue and grey one. and the thing was working fine 2 weeks ago. but when i was on the sim yesterday i noticed everything was working fine except my throttle quadrant does not work nor did the elevator trim did not work. the elevator did but the trim did not. i have went to the settings to make sure they are assigned and i did calibrate them so they both work and are ssigned but when i try to use them, i get nothing.

 

is there anything i can do to fix that or will i have to uninstall fs9 and reinstall it? within the next 6 months i will be upgrading to the alpha honeycomb yoke and throttle quadrant. but until then i need to get the hotas working again especially the throttle quadrant.

 

bonus question what is the best screen setting for a 32 inch monitor?

Instead of re-installing FS is it not easier to re-install the hotas stuff?

 

As for the screen setting on my monitor if I right click in an empty space I get a popup menu and I select 'properties' then it gives you the option to change the settings, these are mine and I have FS2004.

i installed the hotas software 1st and that did not solve the issues. however while i was adjusting the hotas assignments in the sim i fat fingered and hit the restore defaults and that did the trick all is good now. not sure what the issue was to begin with.

Well done Danny, glad you are up and running again, while it is running OK don't try and find out what the issue was lol.
