Dug out the old X-52 Saitek & scraped the dust of years on the shelf since MW4. Got the new drivers & programming software.

Everything's working great.

EXCEPT

The pinkie button is "Latched" & I can't figure out how to unlatch it so I can program it to use for voice comms.

With the community play ramping up I want to get this working for team play.

Anyone have a clue?

Thanks in advance.

you have to latch another button. IIRC I always latched the clutch button to free up the pinkie button.

The latest version of the Saitek Smart software, you can turn off the latched mode by right clicking on the button you want to change, there should be a drop down menu, just un check latched. You can also create a profile for MWO in the SST and just assign each button on the stick and throttle a keyboard key function. You would then only have to set up your axis' in the game menu.

Thanks for the tips but No Joy.

Spent over an hour today trying to get the pinkie button to unlatch to no avail. Oh well.

So I just went and changed the throttle hat to 4 position & then programmed 1 of the directions as a button. Not quite as convenient but a good 2nd choice.
