C-130X and Saitek

Hi,


I am using Saitek Pro Flight Yoke and additional quadrant (6 levers total).

I would like to hear about how others have set up their Saitek regarding levers for C-130X?

I am inclined to use 4 levers as power levers, 1 lever for Parking brake and 1 lever for Flaps.

Michael,

Did you get your Saitek quadrants setup? I just purchased the same with 4 quadrants in hopes that I can individually control individual throttles and flight controls and whatever else.

Let me know...

I have, since my last post, set up my C-130 FS with four Saitek throttle quadrants, a total of 12 levers. Four for each engine, four for each condition lever (prop axis), flaps, elevator trim and whatever else. It took abit of trial and error to get it all aligned, but It works. I have not been able to get the condition levers to travel through the full spectrum, RUN to GROUND STOP only. I would like to be able to move to FEATHER via the Saitek quadrant, but I believe that the MSFS program has limited this. I can only get FEATHER by clicking the mouse on each and dragging them back to FEATHER.

If there are any comments, I would be happy to reply.
