#Saitek x52 pro flight control system test full
They very kindly sent me a full set of controls so I could write FG configurations files and this review. As this was going to be a very slow process, I contacted Saitek and explained the issue.
I offered to help, intending to iteratively write configuration files and have him test them.
They didn't work out of the box as no configuration files existed, and he didn't have enough experience to write the config himself. A new FG user posted a request for help configuring his new Saitek Cessna controls on the FG forums. The background to this review is worth explaining. In particular, the rudder pedals appear to be the same chassis, but with different pedals, and the throttle quadrant is identical to that provided as part of the Pro Flight Yoke System and Throttle Quadrant products. Though I haven't used them, based on photos I expect they are very similar in quality and function. Saitek also produce non-Cessna branded Pro Flight yoke, quadrant and rudder pedals.
The components come nicely packaged in Cessna-branded boxes, and have rather nice Cessna logos on them.Īt time of writing, the product line consists of the following. They are intended to closely represent the controls on Cessna 172 - the default aircraft in FlightGear.
