The Saitek Autopilot Panel and the Switch Panel are not recognized in XP 11.  They do not show up with the other controlllers.

you can download the zip file, there is a pretty length manual along with the code.

X-Plane 11 is still in Beta. Some plugins may require tweaking by the developer to allow complete compatibility; thus, if the plugin does not work in X-Plane 11 as of now, report it to the developer (just pointing it out).

By the way, I did see a post from Sparker, the author of xsaitekpanels, that he tested the plugin with X-Plane 11 and it was working. Here is the thread, his comment is the first post in the thread.

How did you get the plugins to work? I read that and it was beyond comprehension for me honestly. I couldn't even find the file folders.
