Combination of Controllers

Post by jcmweijers@hetnet.nl »

LS,
Installed: Windows 11, 64bit. Prepar3Dv4.5 AddOns: Airplanes of PMDG: B747 and 7777. FS Labs: Airbus 320.
In top of the openingscreen of Pr3D you find the possibility to select a controller. The mouse of course and I have with USB inserted a Extreme 3D Pro of Logitech and the Saitek X56 HOTAS . Both are present in the list of possible controllers. In function was the Extreme 3D but I like the throttle of the X56. Is it possible to combine the stick of Extreme 3D and the throttle of X56 in the same airplane during the same fligfht Prepar3D? Sincerely Hans Weijers.

Hello Hans,

I have not seen cross controller configuration within P3D.

However, there is a solution.

Use FSUIPC (payware) to make all axis / buttons assignments by aircraft type.

I have these Controllers all hooked up all the time:
Thrustmaster Warthog Throttles and Joystick
Saitek Yoke and two Throttle Quads
Thrustmaster Airbus Joystick and Throttles

For example on a Helo I use:
Thrustmaster Airbus Joystick
Saitek throttle
CH Products pedals

Notes:
I also use Windows 11, 64bit. Prepar3Dv4.5 AddOns: Airplanes of PMDG: B747 and 7777. FS Labs: Airbus 320.
Each has a custom FSUIPC profile / configuration saved and is used automatically when the aircraft / Helo is loaded.

P3D does have an export / import you may want to try:
