Aaron Williamson 1020371 Posted August 31, 2010 at 01:58 AM Posted August 31, 2010 at 01:58 AM I have a couple rotaries on my X52 that I would really like to be able to set up as trim for elevator or rudder, but it seems there is no default way to set a joystick axis for rudder trim which is very bothersome, I was going to set up bands on my rotation but it seems I can't find the X52 SST for download.

Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:05 AM Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:05 AM when you go to calibrate it, does it pick up the twist axis (or whatever axis it is you are trying to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Williamson 1020371 Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:07 AM Author Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:07 AM No no no, I can set rudder fine (through this twist axis is annoying for anything outside of combat flight, I need to look into getting foot petals), it's TRIMMING the rudder that I want on the dial.

Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:11 AM Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:11 AM what axis is it you are trying to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign for the trim, and does your calibration pick up this axis? if you mean [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igning a button on the joystick, you can do this from the key commands. double click on the one you want to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign a button to, push the button and it will pick it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Williamson 1020371 Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:23 AM Author Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:23 AM The problem is that there is no joystick axis [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ignment tab for rudder trim...

Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:38 AM Posted August 31, 2010 at 02:38 AM for the rudder trim, if its not a button you want to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign, but a knob, slider, or something like that. you may need to get an addon, like the registered version of FSUIPC, which will let you tie a key command to an axis. that way youll be able to use that axis and it will do it. not sure of any freeware ones thatll do it, but the registered version FSUIPC will the important thing is to make sure FS recognizes that axis. if you can [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign it to something else, then you know its being recognized. if you cant, then even using FSUIPC wont work as its not being recognized as an axis. if the controller has its own software, you may even be able to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign it from there without fsuipc.
