Hi all,

I've had my X52 for a while, and I've been having a problem with the rudder.  whenever an aircraft is loaded, the rudder always wants to go to the right.  even when I have my Peddles plugged in, it still does it.  It getting to the point where I can't fly anymore.... So does anyone have any help? Sad

The problem lies in one of the turning knobs on your throttle handle. One of them is not exactly in the middle position. Put it there or if you are not using them turn both to full right (or left, doesn't matter) and center your flight controls. There is a command for it in FSX/FS9. I have it assigned to Shift/5. Should fix your problem.

With my Saitek Cyborg Evo Force Joystick, I find that I HAVE to rotate all the controls through all their travel a few times to centralise them as soon at the flight Sim has finished loading, and BEFORE I attempt to take off, otherwise the Throttle, Rudder, Ailerons will be in the wrong position!
Doing that, in my case, as soon as the Sim has loaded, will cure the problem for the rest of the flight session.

I do not have the x52, but it seems odd to do that every time loading sim.
Isn't there an opportunity to save the last calibration?

If you configure your stick make sure you safe a new default flight. Closed throttle, centered rudder, elevators and ailerons. Upon saving these settings will stay that way next time you start FS.
