I have been trying to get my pedals to work too. I have read many posts and downloaded all the tools but I have been able to get my saitek pedals to just that rudders and brake.
I can see that the pedals are on ID #5 but it i see the game do the same.
I upgraded to Win 7 today and I think I have to re-install DCS A-10 because it is not starting up anymore.
but if anyone as an idea what I can do more to get my pedals to work please share.
