Swordfish 3 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hi,To move the rudders I use the numerical keyboard, with all default fsx settings, because my joystick hasn't the possibility to configure for rudder movement. In all default planes the rudder work normally but with airbus x ext. it doesn't work. It seems that they move, but it looks like they are 'shaking'. Because of this it's impossible to move the airplane on the ground. With my joystick I only can turn using the ailerons, but that's not the way it should go. Does anybody recognize my problem?Björn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrijan 193 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 It's completely normal, and caused because of the custom FBW system in the Airbus X A320/321. Solutions for this are to 1. Use an axis for the rudder, doesn't have to be a joystick one. You can even map "mouse yoke" to be your rudder axis in FSX. 2. Use auto rudder. But bare in mind you have to select it both in FSX settings and Airbus X A320/321 right MCDU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordfish 3 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Thanks gentleman for your quick replies. I always wanted to buy a better joystick.

skeller 11 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I've used "Logitech Extreme 3D Pro" (http://www.logitech.com/de-de/product/extreme-3d-pro?crid=719) for a couple of years now, and it works perfectly. Regards, Stefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julianETIC 3 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hello there, In Windows 8 there is an issue where the joystick randomly disconnects (has nothing to do with you I know) Now, this usually happens after arrival for me. So what i do to taxi is I use my Xbox controller. Maybe you have one...just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordfish 3 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Julian thanks for your suggestion, but I really like 'as real as it gets' and that's not taxiing with a Xbox controller :-) Thanks anyway!Of course I love the joystick Mathijs recommends but I think that's hardware for real hardcore flightsimmers....Today I ordered the Logitech extreme 3D pro, hopefully I made a good decision. Thank you gentleman !Björn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an incompatibility problem between Windows 8 and many types of Joystick ( Saitek, Sidewinder etc ). This problem till now hasn't a solution. If you search for this in Internet, there are a lot of post from all the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mseiwald 79 Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Thats not 100% correct...there is a workaround for it by assigning the Joystick axis via FSUIPC. Never ever again had my joystick disconnect from FSX in Win8 since i did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
