Hi Dave and welcome to Simviation,

If you start your sim go to the Settings menu. There you will find a button called Assignments. Press it and you will get a list of all possible commands for the keyboard and joystick. Highlight a command, press Change Assignment and press the button on your X-52 you want to use for that command. Simple as that.

I hope this helped a bit,

Hi, welcome. You have already done two good things...

1.Get Saitek X52
2.Ask for help

thanks for the reply .    i have tried it flown the cessna skyhawk . looked from the rear view . i assigned the fire botton on top of the throttle . just to try flaps it went into the accept box ok but when i looked  at the flight no movement at all  in the assign box all seemed well , any further clues

I have an X52Pro, and have encountered a few problems if you assign the key-functions within FS itself.

Print out a list of the FS9 default-key assignments and set them up in the Profile editor that should come with the CD and your stick  ;)

alex sorry for being a bit dim but what is FS9 i only set this game up today

FS9 is the same as FS2004.
