X-56 HOTAS Flight Stick not picked up by Steam
Been messing around with this for about 2 hours now, tried just about everything I can find online. The throttle is recognised by Steam, but the flight stick just won't show up no matter what I try. Seems like a lot of other people have had this problem with Windows 11. Anyone found any kind of solution so far?

Edit: I should mention that this setup is the Saitek Pro Flight X-56 Rhino.
The other thing is that this setup used to work just fine until I installed Windows 11.

Try disabling Steam Input on a per-game basis
Check the developers site of the flight stick. Many have programs that help with this issue, or a firmware update. Either look on the support of the flight stick developers site for this, or contact them via their email. Asking on steam will not help you.
Use G-Hub from Logitech and disable Steam input.

Yea, ive used that program before. As i SAID, check the developers website. They tend to have programs that can help you.

Tried this, reinstalled X56 software multiple times with variations, checked for driver updates, etc. No good sadly. I've already emailed them and am waiting on a reply, I'm hoping someone else has found something that works for them that might work for me in the interim because frankly I don't expect Logitech will be of much help.

I don't believe the X-56 works with G-Hub, from what I've read online. Tried it out and it doesn't seem to register either.

Your best bet is to email logitech support. Sadly, we cannot really help you out here. As i said above multiple times.
