I don't think the mouse cursor movement on the throttle is correct on my unit. I sent it in for repair but they said it was correct. I think should move like I list below and I got this from a guy who said this was how his X52 worked.
Can some of you compare your's to what I list below and post a reply. I would really appreciate it.

mouse cursor movement on the X52 Pro

Throttle is dead center - 1/2 throttle.

Toward celing = left

Ahh I see what you mean... when I first got my X52Pro I also found the mini mouse controls a little funky...

They're not oriented in relation to your thumb, as would be a thumbstick from a console controller... it's oriented in relation to the unit itself, so "up" (towards the ceiling) really is, in fact, up 

Now, there is a way around that... you could make yourself a profile with th SST software and simply switch out the command mapping for the thumbstick, which is really 2 axes, one for mouse X, and one for mouse Y... switch them out and it should be thumb-oriented

hmm, now that I think of it... I should have done the same thing long ago!! I really had a time trying to adjust myself to the thumbstick orientation 

Hope this helps!! I'm going to try it myself too 

Cheers

I just tried my idea... it doesn't really work I'm afraid...

Switching X and Y is possible in the SST, and it does work to some extent... the X axis switched out fine, but the Y axis became reversed, which made things even more funky

Good info HarvesteR, Thank's and I keep checking for that update!

Though my stick is the X52 (no pro), it also has the little X/Y axis mini thingy.
