This is the problem I'm having. Just bought Cliffs of Dover via Steam.

Saitek X52 with Pro Flite pedals. Throttle appears to be working. Joystick axes (ailerons & elevators) and rudder pedals do not.

I disconnected the pedals to see if it would recognize just the joystick axes. No change (throttle only).

What's the fix? (I searched & have found lots of controller problems, but not this particular one.)

Thanks!

Also remember to assign the axis in the game again, when you disconnect the joystick. The axis get other signature (often happebs, when you do not connect into the same USB slots).

Normally you install the software, have a look into control panel, if it is recognised correctly. Then start your game and remap the axis (overwrite the entries although they seem to be correct).

Z-axis could also be z-axis2, etc.

Some found that adding the X52 axis data directly into the 'ConfUser' file worked as described earlier in the thread. I had to wiggle the flightstick axis and at the same time continually click the mouse button with the cursor on the tab in the controls axis setup menu.
