Anyone else mange to get a T-flight hotas X setup on pc for the game [ Edited ]

[stalker57]

Hey has anyone else managed to get the t-flight hotas x setup on PC. It is all messed up without remapping and remapping will not recognise the Throttle. I have checked on windows and calibrated the stick and the throttle is working. I was looking forward to reliving my youth playing tie fighter and x wing and do not really want to play on controller or shell out for a new hotas when this one by all accounts is working it just appears that the developers have not allowed for it.

Hey @stalker57, 

The T.Flight X is one of the HOTAS that was tested and confirmed to work with the game on PC. You can find more info on the supported devices over at the EA Help website. 

Have you double checked to make sure the firmware for the device in Windows is up to date?

Not OP, but having the same issue here with the T.Flight X. The game accepts inputs from the HOTAS, but reads it as a controller. The "Controls" menu does not give any options for anything other than mouse and keyboard and controller. I have tried:

• Updating drivers and firmware on the HOTAS
• Unplugging and repluging the stick
• Adjusting controller settings in steam's menu
• Restarting the game
• Restarting my computer

I just updated to GeForce 456.55, and am running the game through an Oculus rift launching from Steam VR, if relevant.

Thanks for the details!

Would you mind trying the suggestion that was posted over at this thread to see if it helps in your case as well?

Let me know if you're still having trouble with the throttle afterward. Thanks!

I actually solved the issue on my own. There is a "PC/PS3" toggle switch on the front of the T.Flight X HOTAS which faces away from you while in use. This switch was in the "PS3" position. Once I toggled it over to the "PC" position I have had no issues. The problem, as is often the case, was between the HOTAS and the chair the whole time.

Still not working for me, I’m aware of the ps3 switch. I have to go to work so I’ll troubleshoot more when I get home.

That's a good call out. Thanks for sharing.

Tflight HOTAS 4...same issue Sees the stick and not the throttle

This only uses 1 USB cable, so its not like I can just reset the throttle.

I found that if I switch it to 5-axis mode, the 5th axis works as a throttle. Any suggestions on how to make the throttle works as a throttle?

I'm not sure how useful this will be for most people, but I had the same issue, and it went away when I unplugged my camera from my PC. God knows why or how this works / doesn't work, but that's how I did it.
