  1. I just installed one of these:

     

    http://www.hisdigital.com/html/product_ov.php?id=278&view=yes

     

    it's the readeon 1950 Pro 512MB AGP Turbo version.

    I bought it on Newegg.com about $300.00 after shipping and taxes. But had a rebate.

     

    you can get one like it for $209.00 after rebate, but without turbo and a different fan/cooler. If you get the PCI version it's much cheapper, but I stuck with AGP for now.

  2. I made 4 profiles for the X52 Pro:

    1) IL-2 profile, works for all versions up to the latest 1946.

    2) LockOn:FC Profile

    3) Falcon 4: Allied Force

    4) Wings Over Vietnam (same profile as Strike Fighters, Wings Over Europe, First Eagles).

     

    I put them in 1 zip file: download the zip: just dump them into an empty directory and put them in your Saitek folder.

    =========

    It takes several hours to make a profile,, and I am real tired from making a couple..

     

    -------------

    Note: These X52Pro Profiles don't work with the Saitek X52 non-pro and the non-pro profiles don't with with the pro, so don't bother trying.. so this just pertains to the X52 Pro stick..

  3. Saitek X52 Pro and LockOn is giving me a hard time trying to map it out for LockOn:FC. I had a Saitek X36USB for 7 years, and had it mapped nicely. I notice that the LockON directories are setup for older version of Saitek Stick, but the latest code has not kept up. Is ED or anyone on the team going to help us with saitek X52 and X52 Pro sticks? Note: the X52 and X52 Pro stick profiles are not interchangalble. You cannot use an X52 profile in a X52 pro stick. I am also asking Saitek to make a utility to convert X52 profiles to X52 Pro. But, will LockOn:FC Black Hark give us any updates for the Saitek Sticks?

     

    BTW, I am using the ingame Joystick setup menu for commands. It has been tough so far.

     

    Sometimes I try to chage or enter a key or stick button command and the stupid window that open to chage or enter it only flahses and puts it's own number in there.... and bear in mind I have been flying this game since new, sonce the original LockOn came out several years ago.

     

    Thank you..

  4. give me your email on a PM and I'll send you my profile, it's a work in progress and I use it with TIR4, it works good for me, but everyone has their own taste so you'll probably want to change some of the programming.

     

     

    thanx,, PM sent..

    Been working on some, I made a new Saitek X52 Profile for IL-2 1946, and need Falcon 4:AF, LockON:FC, and WOV

     

    just got new Saitek X52 Pro and pedals.. old one totally worn out after 7 years..

    :joystick:

  5. The Saitek pedals aren't as accurate as the CH ones are. I have pressure sensitive braking scripted into my CH pedals, press the pedals down farther you stop faster. Feels just like it should. Can't do that with Saitek.

     

    Saitek:

    Go to the sensitivities and nullzone settings for the brake pedal axes in Flight Sim and reduce the nullzone down as far as it will go and up the sensitivity.

  6. Saitek pedals are phenomenal for me. I've never tried CH but the Saitek ones I am very happy with. Programmable bands is really a good feature. For example, I use my right toe brake for quickly deploying airbrake, left toebrake for simulating analog braking with bands.

     

     

    cool, can't wait to try them,, ordering them soon,,, didn't think about using them for airbrake...
