Three mode settings and a pinkie switch provide enhanced programming options for even more control in your favorite sim. A downloadable Software Development Kit allows you to create your own MFD interactions.Īfter installing downloadable software, you are then free to create custom profiles for different flight sims. You can then use the buttons residing below the Multifunction Display (MFD) to cycle through essential radio stack functions. Even more beneficial is the ability to directly manipulate radio stack information in FSX, X-Plane, Prepar3D, and most flight simulation software. The X-52 Pro's LCD screen – with adjustable backlighting – enables you to view information about your button configurations with only a quick glance. Yet another customizable feature found on the X52 Pro, a tension adjustment dial lets you change the throttle's resistance to suit the way you fly. Detents – physical markings indicating where a certain action takes places – simplify control of your plane's idle and reverse thrusters. The throttle unit's progressive functionality improves aircraft response. Progressive Throttle with Resistance Adjustment If you prefer more traditional control, a rudder lock switch disables the twist capabilities and confines input to the X and Y axes – ideal for use with Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals (sold separately). The joystick's twist rudder controls add another dimension of command to simulated flight. And to promote maximum comfort during long flights, the joystick's handle also features contours which harmonize with your digits. And, the stick becomes more resistant as it moves farther away from the center position.Ī five-position handle adjustment system conforms to your grip style and hand size. Non-contact technology on the X and Y axes enhance control while increasing durability.

The X52 Pro takes all the standout features from the original X52 and elevates them to a higher altitude.Ī highly accurate centering mechanism ensures the joystick will easily return to the neutral position after you let go. Featuring an upgraded multifunction LCD which shows in-game data in real time, a progressive throttle with tension adjustment, plus an adjustable joystick with a self-centering mechanism. System is a fully integrated hands on stick and throttle flight controller that meets or exceeds the demands of the best flight simulator pilots.
