Jim Hall Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I purchased a new Redbird Yoke and calibrated it with Windows 10 successfully. I set it up with FSX and set the ailerons sensitivity to 100% and null 0%. I watched the ailerons move from external rear and they seemed to move properly. On my maiden flight in the default Cessna 172 Skyhawk the elevators worked fine but the ailerons were very very sluggish. I tried the yoke with MS2020 and the ailerons worked fine. Any ideas as to what is happening with FSX? I want to fly FSX as I mentioned in a previous post because of so many problems with MS2020. i7-7700k @ 4.2 Ghz, 16 GB DDR4/3000,2280 SSD M.2,Genome II Case,Nvidia GTX 1080 rear exhaust, Samsung 40" HDTV & Two 24" HP side monitors.

Ray Hff Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I'd try these settings: Under Settings - Controls, Calibration: Sensitivity and null zone Simple Controls Sensitivity - all axes: 127 Null Zones - all axes: 1 Keyboard Sensitivity Set all, ailerons, rudder and elevator, to 64 And, Under Settings Realism Flight Model Set all 5 parameters to the maximum "realistic" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Hall Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 Thank you, Ray. I did as you suggested and saw no change to serious sluggishness in the ailerons. Autopilot ailerons fine. I checked to make sure no other controller was assigned to the ailerons. i7-7700k @ 4.2 Ghz, 16 GB DDR4/3000,2280 SSD M.2,Genome II Case,Nvidia GTX 1080 rear exhaust, Samsung 40" HDTV & Two 24" HP side monitors.

Jim Hall Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 A good try Ray: anybody using Redbird Yoke with FSX successfully? i7-7700k @ 4.2 Ghz, 16 GB DDR4/3000,2280 SSD M.2,Genome II Case,Nvidia GTX 1080 rear exhaust, Samsung 40" HDTV & Two 24" HP side monitors.

Jim Hall Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 Update: I disconnected all my flight controls from the computer and reconnected them this time plugging in my yoke USB directly into the computer. I went through the Redbird Yoke calibration twice then opened FSX and tried a flight with the Cessna 172--the ailerons worked! I don't know which of the things I did fixed the problem but I'm happy now. Thanks all for your patience. i7-7700k @ 4.2 Ghz, 16 GB DDR4/3000,2280 SSD M.2,Genome II Case,Nvidia GTX 1080 rear exhaust, Samsung 40" HDTV & Two 24" HP side monitors.

jorgen.s.andersen Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Jim, A question, because the disconnect-reconnect worked with the yoke plugged directly into the computer: I would then assume that you used USB hubs - were they all powered?

Jim Hall Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Yes, my single hub was powered.
