Good morning,
I have installed 3 months ago FLIGHTGEAR Version 2.8.0.5, and it works very
well. I usually play with keyboard and mouse.
Now I bought the joystick THRUSTMASTER Hotas X (joystick + throttle), but I
have a problem to use it with FLIGHTGEAR.
The joystick is correctly recognized by my system (Microsoft VISTA), and I
can see in the Control Panel of VISTA that it works well.
The joystick is also correctly recognized when I start FLIGHTGEAR : in
"Help"-"Joystick informations", the name and model of the Joystick is
correct, and if I move the joystick (the joke or the throttle), the value
displayed of the correspondent axis changes according with the movement.
The problem is the "point of view": when I start FLIGHTGEAR, and I select
the "cockpit view", the point of view is not steady forward, but it
immediately rotates to the extreme left (almost to the back of the
aircraft). All the movements of the joystick are transmitted correctly to
FLIGHTGEAR (joke up and down, left and right, throttle up and down and so
on), but I can't drive the aircraft.
The point of view returns forward in the cockpit only if I push the big red
button on the joystick, but in this way I have the brake on!
I tried to push other buttons on the joystick, but I can't get over the
problem.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks in advance, and best regards
Stefano Piccoli
