Cant get P3D V5 to let me bind all engine controls to 1 quadrent
Title says it all, Currently own the Saitek Pro flight yoke, with 1 quadrant for throttle, mixture, prop RPM. Just bought the constellation for p3d V5 and cant fly it because of this. FSX let me lock all engines to 1 binding.

Have you tried FSUIPC? I don't have a yoke, but find the paid version of FSUIPC invaluable for mapping this sort of thing.RageShade1 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2020, 22:24 Currently own the Saitek Pro flight yoke, with 1 quadrant for throttle, mixture, prop RPM.

Have you tried mapping your axis by going to the A2A input manager? Should be able to go to the Start Menu>A2A Simulations>Connie InputRageShade1 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2020, 22:24 Title says it all, Currently own the Saitek Pro flight yoke, with 1 quadrant for throttle, mixture, prop RPM.

Hello RS1 - not 100% sure I understand the issue, but are you using the "throttle axis" assignment in P3Dv5 rather than "Engine 1 throttle axis" etc?
Thank,
Nick

Yep, I think so anyways. I believe ive tried both but im not on the main machine to check at the moment. It basically tells me its already bound and re assigns them to a single engine. I need all 4 engines on 1 axis for throttle, mixture, prop

Re: Cant get P3D V5 to let me bind all engine controls to 1 quadrent
Do you mean you have one axis for throttles, a second axis for props and a third axis for mixture? If so, you should just be able to use the standard P3D axis assignments for "throttle axis", "propeller axis" and "mixture axis" respectively.
Thanks,
Nick

@Nick Yep that's what i have and that's what i thought i could do. But when i try it for multiple engines it says its already assigned and over wrights it. And as far as i can see there's no way to stop that unless im missing something. Im using the axis assignments page to do it.

Thanks for the update and good to hear the issue is resolved. Sounds like maybe you were overcomplicating the axis assignments a bit!
