Help, I've lost my rudder!! (Saitek X45) It calibrates and tests OK but won't move the a/c rudder at all. Autorudder is NOT selected. Works OK in fs9.                   OK I got SOME rudder by re-setting controller assignments to default, but only 1/3 to 1/2  travel compared to key controls, and an intermittent failure to maintain left rudder.  Thanks in advance folks.

Hi Dodger,

Did you try adjusting the sliders in controls/sensitivities?

Cheers,
Dave
