Check your PM please....

I guess you are right.... I will have to use hat switches to make that work.... but that will be a turn off... :(

I am using a Saitek x45 right now.... I am looking forward to get the CH fighterstick and pro throttle.... however, after researching about it on the web, I found out that the Pro throttle does'nt have a rotary function.... The x45 throttle has two rotary functions although I have only one in use(for radar antenna elevation)... Now, flying fighters like f 15, f 16... successfully scanning the airspace for bandits is one of the important tasks needed to be done and a rotary for radar antenna elevation is a must have(on the throttle) and I cannot compromise on that..... although the fighterstick has three axis wheels around the base from which one of them can have that function but I don't want to get my hand off the throttle every time I want to adjust the elevation.... Is anybody else using CH pro throttle? how are they using the radar antenna elevation...? Should I look forward to getting CH products with the reason I stated above?

Thank you for the reply... yes, I did searched on google regarding the joystick springs but all I find was joysticks related to arcade games... so I don't know how much it will relate to a flight sim joystick and I don't want to any risk in damaging my joystick..... I have also heard the reliability, durability and longevity of CH products.... Did you ever had centering problems with CH fighterstick?? how is the throttle working? did you face any problems with it so far?

Hey everyone, I have been using the saitek x45 and its pretty great.... but over a few months the stick has gotten lose in the center position.... its very sensitive in the center and quite lose.... I heard the you can solve that problem by tightening the spring attached to the stick.... is that true? are there any other methods to solve the problem? Can anybody briefly guide for the solution.... Thank you.... :joystick:

If you look closely at the base of the stick (just beneath the stick) that causes it to center... at that point whenever I slightly pull or push the stick, it causes friction and the stick gets very jerky and I can't move it smoothly... If I pull or push the stick very fast, then I can do it quite smoothly but If try to move it slowly, it causes alot of friction in the base.... I'm not sure that if the internel of the joystick is causing this... I tried using machine oil there(at the base) but it didnt work.... does this ever happened to you? any suggestions? Thanks.

I have these problems without any autopilot modes....

Thank you for the link, I have now assigned proper axes to the pitch and roll as they were already before.. and thrust.. but violent pitch problem still holds... Moreover, all the buttons and pov buttons are not recognized in the sim... My rudder on the throttle is not recognized in the sim... I am talking about this in Lomac 1.2 :helpsmilie:

No sir, not much.

I can't understand what you are talking about... but some of the POV hat swtiches are not recognized in the game, plus 1 rotatary is working as a rudder pedals and other as left engine throttle... I have no idea what to do?

Hello everyone, I am using Lomac 1.02, I have SST programming software, all the functions of the joystick seem to work fine in the joystick control panel. I also fly Open Falcon,FreeFalcon, my Saitek x45 works perfectly with these sims. However, I am having problem in getting my stick and throttle to work in lomac. First problem is that whenever I pull or push the stick, the aircraft reacts violently in the pitch, the roll seems to work fine. Like, I pull the stick, the aircraft's pitch, aoa increases. But as I release my hands on the stick(it goes at the center). Then aircraft reacts violently on the pitch. Its completely unflyable. Second, my rudders on throttle arent recognized by the game, the throttle seems to work just fine. I have these same problems with LOFC2 and moreover it doesnt even recognize my throttle. Any help regarding these issues? Once more I would like to remind that, my stick&throttle works perfectly in Falcon 4(OF,FF).

I have just posted on both FreeTrack and OpenFalcon forums. I hope get some help. Because TrackIR is not available in my country and shipping here costs alot of money. :)

Hello everyone, I have the latest version of FreeTrack installed, Im using Logitech C120 webcam. I am playing OpenFalcon 4.7. I have Saitek x45 joystick with latest drivers. I am using a Laptop. My specs are Intel C2D 2.2ghz, 4gb ddr2 ram with ati mobility radeon hd 4330 with latest drivers and catalyst control center installed with WinXP-SP3. I have built a 3 point LED cap. All games(ARMA2, LO-FC2, DCS Black Shark) works perfectly with FreeTrack except Falcon(OpenFalcon/FreeFalcon). The problem is that sometimes when I commit a mission and get in my jet, FreeTrack crashes, however, I did configured my FreeTrack, adjusted the sensitivity etc... and it was working till I got in my mission in OpenFalcon/FreeFalcon. Sometimes the FreeTrack works and sometimes it crashes whenever I launch a mission. I can't Alt+tab because of the game, so I quit the game and go back to desktop and see that I can use the FreeTrack program but it has partially crashed, like a grey screen on the webcam window. Can someone please help me out here?

ok guys, another problem, in my black shark Version 1.00, I was able to mouse look + interact in the cockpit by pressing ESC key, then pressing cancel.. after that I had both the mouse look and interaction enabled... now, I updated the game Version 1.02, and now this method doesnt work and neither I can find an option to do such thing... Does anyone of you know how to mouselook and interact in the cockpit at the sametime in Version 1.02?!? and yeah, do not suggest me to get trackIR, I cannot afford that thing... Thank You

yes its, RShift+N, thanks for the help

well flying in FC2, especially the ground attack aircraft... sometimes, some of the systems in the aircraft are damaged due to AAA... like hydraulics and ACS most commonly... after that an infinite loop of master caution voice is heared saying 'ACS Failure... Hydraulics Failure... etc....' and there any way to make her to Shut the f*** up(I mean silent this voice).... it keeps on going forever and i cant take it... and I end up exiting the mission

the option of labels is disabled in options... they still show up in some single player missions

i have started playing single player missions in FC2, most of the missions have aircraft and ground labels all the time, it ruins the realisticness of the game :P... how can i disable these labels permanently?!?

hey thanks, press escape key, then click on cancel.. it works then.... untill you do not go to an external view

thank you for your suggestion, but I cannot afford a trackIR right now, any other suggestion would be appreciated!

can somebody please tell me, how can I mouselook around the cockpit and interact with it at the same time... when I play a training mission and then take control, I can do that for a while unless i go to an external view... the Lalt+C button only allows to mouselook but cannot interact.... Is there a key or something, such that I can mouselook and interact at the same time? thanks..

hey, I tried using a seperate keyboard, and so far and dont have such problems anymore... well anyways, i think i will try get myself a decent joystick... thanks for the help.. :)

no gamecontrollers attached Only a mouse no other software that may assist I am using a laptop that is 6 months old... It never got stuck... Ok, let me try first...

ok here it is... i am playing an A-10a in a quick start mission.... the first time it happens when I just destroyed to tanks parked with a truck at the start of the mission... i waive from my gun run and when I am on my way to gun the truck.. this bug happens... my aircraft pitches down for no reason and i crash... 2 more times in it happens in the same mission but a bit later... LastMissionTrack.trk

I have been playing lomac and now I just got fc2 few days back... i have played this game alot since then (single player)... its excellent... there is a bug I suspect.... It happens most frequently with the A-10A and quite alot times with all other aircraft... and yes, i use a keyboard to fly, i do not have a joystick.. i have a decent system that runs this game to 25 fps... the situation is that i am playing in an A-10A in quick start mission... and when I try to pitch down the aircraft a little for positioning my gun suppose... sometimes when press the 'up' key to pitch down a little, suddenly the aircraft pitches down at maximum rate and constantly does so , also I lose the control of the aircraft for like 8 straight seconds... most of the time I end up crashing... it always happens when press 'up' button (try to pitch down)... the aircraft loses control and it pitches down at maximum rate for atleast 5 seconds until i get back my control... I have lock on flaming cliffs 2 updated to latest patch... Please help me with this problem, its very annoying... thanks
