Re: Saitek Yoke Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

My stepson finally came home from college for the weekend and we tried out some of everyone’s suggestions. We made some progress, thought we might have solved it, but still can’t get this hat switch configured correctly. Went under options, controls, buttons/keyboards assignments, Saitek Yoke Contro...

Re: Saitek Yolk Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

Jorgen, I don’t think we have a USB hub, unless you consider the yoke box one. We have the throttle quadrant and rudders plugged into the yoke box, and that is plugged into the laptop. Vaughan, We do have a Saitek yoke with all the controls/ buttons you mentioned. We did test the yoke with the Saite...

Re: Saitek Yoke Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

Xmitr was right, that was pretty bad using “yolk” all week long on here, I don’t know why that looked OK. “We” is just my stepson and I. I got him the laptop and Saitek hardware, he downloaded Prepar3D and the C172 software (JustFlight.com?) with me looking over his shoulder most of the time. He’s u...

Re: Saitek Yolk Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

I did not test the hat switch with the Saitek software. As far as I’m aware of we never got or downloaded any Saitek software. As I said the yolk, throttles, rudder pedals, and all their controls ( including the hat switch) worked properly as soon as we plugged them in so we never had to get any Sai...

Re: Saitek Yolk Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

I never made any assignments to the saitek yolk, the hat was changing the view correctly (up, down, left and right) after initial plug in, and for the first couple of days. I have Prepar3D v4.5, I don’t know about the HF2 designation, we did purchase it just a week ago if that helps. Didn’t really h...

Saitek Yolk Trim Hat won’t change view anymore

The yolk trim hat on the left side of the yolk that changed the view (left, right, up and down) will now only move the view up. Tried disconnecting the yolk, throttles and rudder pedals, closing the Prepar3D v4.5 program, and rebooting my computer several times but still have the same problem - hat ...
