all my Saitec instruments working but unstable( disappearing during operation)

Question

Hi

I’m on Windows 10, 64 bit.

I built a cockpit using 9 instrument panels 2 radios, switch panel  and auto pilot.

I download the latest plug in from logitech.

Problem is: when I start X plane the instruments come and go. They work but not stable. I get black screen and they the screen appear back.

Is this problem of computer resources? I need another plug in that I didn’t installed? Does X-plane have limitation with the amount of USB devices?

Any suggestion/help will be great appreciated.

Thanks

Meir

Answer 1

X-Plane had a limit of 10 devices. I believe in the 11.10 update we are increasing that to 20. I believe this plugin is required to use Saitek panels with X-Plane.

Thank you for the answer.

I download the file but I'm not sure I understand the instruction and I will appritiate some guidelines.

Do I copy/Paste the entire folder Xsaitekpanels and place it in Resources/Plugins folder and that it?

what about theremaining files.

I'm reading the menuel and cant find any guidelines.

please advise.

Hi Meir,

The following youtube video link may be of some help as well.

The presenter is Michael Brown from XForce PC, the recommended X-PLane PC supplier in the USA  by Laminar Research.  Consider the content ie information about the need for a powered USB hub to be able to run/operate multiple instruments.  The link is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqwIhuxe95U

Hope this also helps
