Sorry to be a pest but this is the third time I ask and I did not have any answer yet. There is a problem with the saitek x65f joystick. The dual throttle does not work fine with IL2. The right throttle is not recognized by the software. It reads it as a two positions switch (even if it call it a slider, it only has two positions once linked, 0% or 50%). It is not a problem with the saitek sofware (i have checked all possibilities). There is a mistake in the way IL2 communicate with it.

Please Team Daidalos, give some light into this: Is it fixable? are you aware of it? Do you have the means (saitek support for example) to fix it? I thinking about selling the joy and getting the warthog instead... but still do not know if it will work or i will get the same problem. Please can you drop a single line to comment on this?

Try this:
1) Go to Pilot and create new pilot.
2) Then go to Controls and, find the HOTAS section and try to assign the problematic throttle to any of the controls (Flaps or Power for example).
3) Report here what is displayed for the problematic throttle (X-Axis, Y-Axis, U- Axis, or something else, or nothing at all)
4) You can also try to assign the problematic throttle to non-analog control, like for example Pause Game in TIME COMPRESSION section. See how Il2 recognizes this control.
