Excellent stick Had one when I started this game then it broke. bought a x52 Pro... It broke too. The x45 I had for years, the x52 about 6 months. Went with CH products now. You are going to love that stick. Sorry no profile for you tho.

I think your better off making one yourself. This way you know where everything is. Start out with assigning just the basics and work from there. It's not that hard. The instructions are pretty straight forward.

The only problem is that I bought one without a a manual or software, I have downloaded the software and will get the manual and maybe be able to figure it out, Thanks thetiebers already looked at that thread also. I have it set up so i can play the game with limited functions such as pitch, roll, thrust, afterburner, most basic fuctions. should figure out which key to assign to countermeasures. Edit I also cannot get the profile editor to work on my laptop it just keeps telling me to connect the device when it is connected.

I've used an X45 since I started with EL. I've now got an X52 pro as well. I must admit that I've never needed a profile - there are enough buttons to map all the functions I need using the in game setup screens.

Having said that there are a couple of sliders and buttons that I can't map in game and so profiles might let me use them!

Which is a long winded way of saying: excellent sticks - sorry no profile!

One thing I liked about the x45 is that rudder bar on the throttle, makes it good for strafe keybinding.
