Questions about Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight X56 Rhino 2018

It will come on the twelfth of October. For sure!

At least you who ordered from Digitec have a good time. You can cancel and get your money back. I pre-ordered 2020 from Fust in August and paid in advance. Not only have I not received it yet, but Fust has also taken the product out of their range. I wouldn't really care if I hadn't had to wait 3 months for my money. "We'd have to check with the supplier first. We can't just give money back like that. Do you want a voucher or another product?" An incredibly dysfunctional company.

I ordered one about a year ago and it actually arrived at the end of August last year. I can therefore fully understand your frustration. It's a real nuisance with the X56, which (thanks to Elite & co) is almost permanently sold out everywhere ... At the risk of being unhelpful ... Digitec can't do anything about the delays. I think Digitec's only option is to ask the manufacturer and at most decide whether they trust the information and want to raise false hopes by publishing it. It probably won't even help to pass the buck to Logitech or Saitek, because where are these things made? Saitek is a company with factories in various countries and since I don't assume that they produce the X56 from A to Z in a single factory, the question arises: How many lockdowns and covid requirements has the manufacturing chain been affected by, or is it still affected by? My recommendation is, do as I do: Look forward to the moment when you release it from the packaging with your biggest grin, reverently caressing the silky surface while the imaginary choir of angels in your head reaches its peak.You'll be able to hear the soft "click" of the USB cable as you guide it to the case with trembling fingers and the utmost concentration, just in time to hear it fade away. And then ... when you have crawled out from under the table again ... pause in amazement at the noble blue that softly illuminates your room, refracts a thousand times in your eyes, wet with tears of joy, and robs you of sight ... Because then, my friend, the time has come for you to spend many intense hours with the X56. Because Frontier's standard configuration is hardly any good. In this sense I wish you all the best!

Yes, I use the X56 with the MAC for X-Plane11. No problems.

Presumably with the hype for the new flight simulator and in combination with the current situation Logitech has fallen behind with manufacturing and probably don't know for sure themselves.... 🙈

Unfortunately, we are waiting for a delivery here ourselves and cannot speed up the process. However, we hope to be able to deliver the product soon.

This is the current H.O.T.A.S. product.

Unfortunately this is not possible.

Yes, the Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight X56 Rhino is compatible with the Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals. The two products are designed to work together to provide a complete flight simulation and space sim experience, with seamless integration of stick, throttle and rudder pedals.

The Saitek Pro Flight X56 Rhino is not specifically designed to be used in combination with Thrustmaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals (TFRP) natively. Saitek and Thrustmaster control systems are generally designed to operate within their own respective ecosystems. However, it is possible to use them together on a PC, but this would require manual configuration and the use of programming software to synchronise axes and controls. There is no direct or built-in compatibility between these two products, and compatibility would depend on the ability of the simulation software and drivers to handle multiple devices from different manufacturers.

Hello André I've been flying with the X65 Hotas since the start of FS 2020 without any problems. The PC is an Omen 30L GT13, graphics card a GeForce 3090Ti. Everything runs very well and smoothly. If anything causes problems, it's the Microsoft software. Since the beginning, we have been confronted with almost countless updates that have generated new problems every time. I think the X56 is currently one of the best controllers and very customisable, but it's actually already old. Logitech has unfortunately not jumped on the FS 2020 bandwagon and so, as far as I know, there are no "modern" controllers. Best regards and have a good flight Georges Ackermann

There is no force feedback on this joystick.

I'm sorry, I haven't tried that. Greetings

Prices are based on supply and demand, suppliers and availability of goods. For all these reasons, they vary regularly and are updated daily on our website :)

Since this is a PC with a USB connection, yes.

I bought this hotas last summer and I haven't had any major problems so far. The only thing that is annoying are the rotary sticks. Sometimes they jam a little or give shaky inputs. But I think those are details. So I can recommend this hotas (it suits me).

Since I use a PC, I can't answer that correctly, but I would go to a Mediamarkt or Interdiscount and ask. I only found this statement. If you want to nitpick ... modern input devices for PC almost all follow the DirectInput standard. Consoles could support it, but they don't.

Mine squeaks very slightly when I move it to the right (not turn it), but it hardly bothers me. Have you tried another of the springs supplied?

No, the function is not given with the model.

Yes :)

Hello It will NEVER come.... In my case, the date has been postponed over and over again (for almost 6 months, had ordered in September 2020). They can't get in touch with the supplier (for whatever reason). I would suggest the Thrustmaster Warthog as an alternative. Thrustmaster TM Hotas Warthog Joystick, PC It's in stock and you'll have it tomorrow. It's almost twice as expensive, but twice as good. This one is made of high quality metal instead of cheap plastic. You have something in your hand :-) You can also exchange the stick (e.g. for F/A 18 or so, there are several). But they cost more than Fr. 200.00 per piece. I now have this one too and am HAPPY that the Logitech X56 never arrived. Note: I am only a user and do not work at digitec.ch. I hope I was able to help. Greetings from Bern...

Hi Icebreaker I suspect that these controllers are selling like hot cakes - because of the run on the new flight simulator. But to answer your question: No, that's not normal. I can't answer all the other questions because I don't work for Digitec/Galaxus. The best thing is to ask the customer service :) Good luck!

I received mine on Saturday. Ordered in August.

You can buy it directly from Logitech. They have some in stock again. https://www.logitechg.com/de-ch/products/space/x56-space-flight-vr-simulator-controller.945-000059.html
