Joystick axis su27 saitek x52 pro

[m1tp2king]

Hi. So I have 4 questions. 

1. I try to save axis setup but when I go in game the save profile has reverted to original. 

2. I have saitek x52 pro. I can't seem to adjust the throttle afterburner to start just after I go past the indent.

3. How far should the afterburner dial go past the 100% mark in the cockpit?

105%?   110%?

4. can't seem to setup the camera zoom. To the rotary on the throttle 

Thanks.

When in DCS and controls setup you just click OK and it's saved. Unless you also use external software for the controls - I won't help you with that.

This video should help you understand how to setup software detent:

This can help you calculate it faster:

For the zoom - find the camera view zoom in the axis settings and assign it for the throttle device. Now move the rotary fully one side and back - it should be detected - now just click ok and you're done. If the aircraft setting doesn't work check the UI or General category instead of Su-27.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I can activate afterburner, but the dial on the throttle indicator goes to 100%

Shouldn't it go to 105% or 110%?

No, they go max 100% RPM. AB does not mean you spin the engines any faster. You just burn more fuel after the turbine. For AB indication you have dedicated warning lights.

Thanks for your help.

Just 1 issue. 

I am trying to set up the (saitek x52 pro) 'I' rotary to be able to camera zoom view but it doesn't give me the option to fine tune axis. I tried a million things but no success.  

When i double click on other axis (like the throttle) it gives me the option to adjust. What am I doing wrong?

Just checked. This command is simply not available for other devices than mouse. You can see different shade of the input fields.

Thanks for your message.

A few years ago I could make this work with 'I' rotary.
