X45 throtle help | Forums

I know this question have been asked before but i can't find any.
Is it possible to use the X45 throtle alone by it self, Connection?

Thanks

It must be plugged in to the X-45 joystick, but there's nothing to stop you using another joystick for aileron / elevator / rudder while using the X-45 for throttle control and buttons.

Haaa no other plug?.. maybe taking the joystic apart and use just the plug of it? hummmmm!

That wont work either, the USB interface electronics for the X-45 throttle is part of the stuff in the stick base. You must either connect via the stick, convert to gameport or use one of the USB controller kits available from a couple of places on the internet. It can't be done by just wiring on a new plug.
