Install the latest drivers and DO NOT PLUG IN YOUR X52 until the install program ASKS you to or you will have to redo this whole process. Go down into the following folders in order by clicking the + next to the folder name.ĭelete any folder inside the Direct Input folder that begins VID_06A3. The Registry Editor will have a list of folders on the left hand side. Keyboard and mouse - I use the mouse and keyboard like everyone else does and do not fly the plane with it.

Press and hold the Windows key on your keyboard and then press the letter R. I have the usual keyboard and mouse (Both Razer), a Saitek X52 Pro, a Logitech Pro Flight yoke system with throttle quadrant, a wired Xbox 360 controller and a wireless Xbox 1 controller. Here are the instructions you have to follow them all or the same problem happens again:ĭelete the Saitek folders from the following paths :

Then re-install driver then SST (and do not plug in the x52 until the driver program ASKS you to plug it in, and then do so). I had to follow the instructions from Saitek to properly remove all traces of the drivers and software. Even though I could change some settings and it appeared to kind of work, it wouldn't load profiles even if I made a simple one with 1 key and saved it (that would work) but try and load it and fail! So the drivers and SST would install but wouldn't work correctly at all and drove me nuts. I had same issue with mine it was because i made the mistake of plugging in my x52 before I had run the driver install problem. Long story short, I had a hell of a time installing the driver until some google-fu revealed this wonderful 2yr old post. My 10 yr old X52 recently bit the dust and i replaced with a newer one (same model but with metal bits on the base).

via a quick fingernail check from each side).īoth mods are totally reversible, and make a huge difference to the level of fine control and "feel" of this stick.

but you should still measure the position of the rare-earth magnets under the Hall Sensor (eg. This guarantees no off-centre position with new magnets. It's important to realise the X52 auto-centres its stick when it first powers on. It also means moving the stick in a circle actually makes a circle - instead of a diamond - when you watch the raw input. The second made the centre part of the stick movement really responsive, instead of having a useless dead area. The first tweak made the stick less sloppy. Note: Had to clean off some grease on the plastic bit first. Bought a couple of small rare-earth magnets, and used Scotch permanent mounting double-sided tape to stick one directly under each Hall Sensor, on the moving gear thing. Removed the X and Y "magnet clips" inside the joystick - put them in away for safe-keeping. Added a small plastic clip/ring thing to the top of the stick spring.Ģ. Profile editor works a treat, buttons work perfectly all the time (without needing "Control Panel" open). I uninstalled all the Saitek s/w and drivers, re-installed it, and it was then 100% working. Also, programmed buttons didn't work after setting up keyboard macros/equivalents in "Smart Technology" profile editor.

The buttons and stuff wouldn't work properly without the "Control Panel" joystick thing running in the background. I had driver and software issues the first time I had it all installed.
