Modding the X52Pro

Tonight I will test my “new” X52 Pro, its been just modded.

No, nothing was wrong before, but now it should be better.

It’s easy, you can do it right now with yours, max time is 2 hours, and you can always go back to original.

Modding involves changing the position of the 2 Hall sensors, so the response from the stick is more linear than before.

Will tell you if I feel something different…

Look forward to hearing more news Nepe :slight_smile:

I did this too, before I changed to MSFF2.
Its much more precise, be aware :smiley:

How do you do it?

From 1C forum:

it’s a topic in spanish

Its very easy Pesca. You just need to take out the 4 magnets (2 for each one of the Hall sensors) and glue them in a different position. The only time-consuming task is adjusting the new positions of the magnets so they are centered and the throw of the stick is correct.

Im here to help.

First impressions:

A clear improvement. The deadzone was small before, but now is absolute Zero. In takeoff is clearly noticeable, as the force I need for the rotation is much smaller than before.

The other big difference is when you move the 2 axis at the same time, thats is, roll and pitch. The response is much more linear, and this was confirmed with the use of a little free program called JoyTester (very, very useful).

I think I will need to tweak down the sensitivity of the stick curves, as now is much more responsive.

Very happy with the mod :slight_smile:

Thk’s Carlos but I think I don’t do it…

Alternatly

Firstly replace the internal sensors, switches, cabling and logic board with those from a Microsoft FFB2 stick.

Then, if time allows, replace the external plastics with those from a Microsoft FFB2 stick.

If you get it right, it should look something like this:

wow Carlos, you quoted one of my posts on 1C forum :roflmao:
