Gladiator+THQ: axes settings keep getting lost in P3dV4.5

[delta_lima]

Hi.

Been happy with my Gladiator stick last year so I’m eager to use the THQ in the sim.

The problem I've had after a month of owning the THQ for around a month is as follows:

I setup my axes, buttons, etc. Then, every time I either change to a new plane, or I shut the sim down and come back, some axes settings are lost from what I had designated and reset to what I assume is default.

Affected axes are

1) in normal sim mode, the right-hand-most THQ lever, which I program as "Engine 1 prop" gets reset to roll/aileron (x-axis).
2) In slew mode, hitting "y" instantly induces lateral/sideways translation to the left. I can fix this by going into the controls, axis assignments, slew mode tab and removing the offending axis that causes this, but again, that only lasts for that plane, and/or that sim session.

Changing aircraft and/or shutting down and starting a new sim session causes me to the aforementioned settings. Throttle axis settings on THQ, axes on Gladiator and button assignments on both THQ and Gladiator are unaffected, and remain slaved to my intended assignments.

I've got the firmware uploaded correctly (I think) and all the stated steps to detect and calibrate. Screenshots as requested in another thread.

SIM = P3Dv4.5
OS = W7 (v6.1, build 7601, SP1)

Please advise how to fix - it's a lovely product, but it's so annoying to have to reconfigure many times in a sim session.

thanks,

Not sure how the game is managing the axes, but certainly the joystick doesn't change axes names and assigning to controls by itself.

So do the readings shown in the screenshot give any clues?

I mean the Gladiator worked fine, adding the THQ introduced issues of some sort.

Any next steps you can recommend??

Thx

Yes, the numbers show that the joystick is properly set up and calibrated.
Unfortunately I am unsure what causes the issue, as I don't have any experience with that particular game. I am confident that it's a game issue though and the best way to approach the fix would be to ask on their forums/communities.
