valero Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I have a Logitech Extreme 3d and I've created my own Joystick user profile, but no matter what I do the default profile always comes up in every plane or flight I fly. When I check in the Profile Mgr. my presets are there with my name but I cannot get them to be applied in my flights, the default presets is the only thing showing. Any ideas?

PEIRascal Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Do you change to the profile and then click 'Apply and Save' Hal Alienware Aurora R13, I7-12700KF, 16g DDR5 4400 memory, 256g NVMe boot drive, 1 - 2t NVMe m.2 drive for Apps, 2 - 1t SSD for Data, GeForce RTX 3080 TI 12g, Windows 11 Pro.

valero Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 Is there anything else I should do for my Joystick to work? MSFS does not retain my user profile, it keeps some but must of them are "defaults". I have tried everything and it does not work. I did the initial calibration and downloaded drivers from Logitech. I wonder if there's something wrong with the Joystick so I can return it to Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napamule2 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 If I was you I would go to YouTube. Lots of videos on 3d stick. Reviews. Setup in FS2020, etc. Enter 'Logitech Extreme 3D' in 'Search' box. Or enter it in Google. Get refreshment, popcorn, ice cream, or light a cigar and get comfortable as there will be HOURS of videos. Good luck. Chuck B Napamule Edit:PS. Don't forget to TAKE NOTES. MSFS is complicated when it comes to controllers. i7 2600K @ 3.4 Ghz (Turbo-Boost to 3.877 Ghz), Asus P8H67 Pro, Super Talent 8 Gb DDR3/1333 Dual Channel, XFX Radeon R7-360B 2Gb DDR5, Corsair 650 W PSU, Dell 23 in (2048x1152), Windows7 Pro 64 bit, MS Sidewinder Precision 2 Joy, Logitech K-360 wireless KB & Mouse, Targus PAUK10U USB Keypad for Throttle (F1 to F4)/Spoiler/Tailhook/Wing Fold/Pitch Trim/Parking Brake/Snap to 2D Panel/View Change.

valero Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 I have done what you've suggested yet I also found similar amount of information on trouble with this particular joystick having incompatibility issues with MSFS and windows 10. I even went to the extend of re-installing my dependable FSX and tried the joystick with the same negative results. The trouble seems to be that the joystick just "partially" work with certain windows configurations. By the way, this is the 1st time I've tried to use a Joystick since I started with FS 1.0 in the 1980s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valero Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 The Logitech installer does note provide a way to "Calibrate" the joystick. The work around I Found in YouTube is the following: Open the "Logitech profiler and go to: 1. The "Device" -->"Game Controllers" Screen 2. Once on the Screen: Press Left "Crtl" + "Left "Shift" and hold, and then click: "Properties" 3. The "Calibration Screen" will pop up! Once calibrated it works perfectly on MSFS and any other game.
