x52 SST software issue keeps scrolling down

[SEE]

I couldn't overcome that problem with key assigned to a band of the axis - it kept repeating, sometimes crashing the game.

I use the X52 thumb mouse to change POV (similar to the zoom effect in IL1946) by holding the pinkie switch down. In the controls menu you simply assign a keyboard stroke instead of the default 'Mouse 5' then assign that keystroke to the pinkie switch in SST. You could also use the latch facility on the Pinkie trigger so that you only have to press it once to enable the Thumb mouse to control the POV.

I was suprised at how easily I got used to holding the pinkie switch down with my little finger and using the thumb mouse.

Try it.....works well for me!
