Dear Team Daidalos,

Sorry to be a pest but this problem is eating me alive. I when my old and much loved joystick saitek x45 died a few months ago have bought saitek x65f and one of the main reasons why I bought this throttle was because it comes with twin throttle. I love to fly two engine planes and I knew 4.10 was including multiengine capabilities. When my Joy arrived we were still with 4.09 and I remember I tried both throttle with IL2 and I have realized the right throttle is not understand by the game. If I link this throttle with the power it does not follow the full range, it has only two positions, 0% or 50% and even this ones are not progressive. When the throttle is full down this is equal to 0 and when is full up is 50% but no progression in between. Left throttle though works fine.

I thought at the time it was a problem with the fact 4.09 does not have multiengine possibilities so I waited with expectancy the arrival of 4.10. That day has arrived and now I still have the same problem to whichever axis I link the right throttle to. I have contacted also saitek with an explanation of the problem but because this twin joystick works fine with other more modern games (like fsx) I think the problem is in the way il2 communicates with my joy.

I would love to know if someone has similar issues with this or another twin throttle joystick and if there is any way to overcome it.

Thanks.
