Getting analog trust to work in choppers?

[KenNitro 1]

I've been flying the choppers, getting better at it, but it's hard to land with confidence because I can't get analog throttle to work, it seems to just be working in an extremely narrow range above 50% so finding the right amount for slow decent is like a range of a millimeter, so it ends up just feeling like on/off.

If there any way I can adjust this some way? I tried going into controllers on the controls dialog and adjusted them but it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

I have an x52 pro, anyone got it working right?

Right now I've just bound the analog thrust to one of my pedals so when I'm landing I can just descent and then keep tapping it to control the speed of descent but I'd much rather find some way to control the throttle properly.

Got it figured out now after reading a million threads.

Just in case this helps someone else..

Grab DXTweak from here:

Now set the axis you use for throttle so center and max are the same values.

I use my ECCI racing pedals for throttle, so for me it was 0-1023-1023 (Hidef USB)

And then bind the analog thrust to that axis.

Voila, now I can go down fast, incrementally change the speed of descent, hover and all that, flying choppers is 100 times better.

There was another solution using PPJoy and GlovePIE, but if you are on 64bit windows you have to go through a nightmare because the PPJoy drivers are not signed and put windows in test mode everytime you boot, the above is much easier.
