I’d love to use my throttle MFD to display info, but the display always seems to be garbled. Think it was a USB problem, maybe OS specific, but whatever it was, I could never fix it satisfactorily. Stick and throttle work just fine otherwise, so it’s always something I’ve just ignored.

for the record, only the pro will work.

So has Saitek/MadCatz. Would love for them to fix it but I doubt they ever will.

I haven’t messed around with this too much but it looks like a lot more trouble than its worth. I have been having issues with the backlight on the MFD on my X52 pro. Looks to me like that’s fairly normal. also the display is not good for numbers that change often.
I have also noticed that my clock settings are wrong and changing it in the setup does nothing. Clicking the apply button doesn’t do anything. Really irritating that I cant even set the stupid clock.

It should be pretty solid with the latest Saitek 7.0.34.109 drivers and version 2.2 of my utility (just released Jan 4). The backlight will start out dim (Saitek bug?) but if you just scroll the page up once and then back down, it should fix itself.

Hi Raptor,
With your tool, is it possible to display throttle %? Or RPM? Is it compatible with Windows 8.1 and BMS?
Thanks,

Yep! RPM is on the first MFD page in the default configuration.
Is it compatible with Windows 8.1 and BMS?
It is definitely compatible with BMS4; I started out with Allied Force, but BMS4 is all I really play now. I’ve only tested with XP and 7, but there’s no reason it shouldn’t work in 8.1 as long as your Saitek drivers are working.
