Logitech Flight Instrument panels, i.e. airspeed indicator, turnslip indicator,etc. won't work with MSFS 2020

I purchased a flight instrument panel, that allows you to configure as direction indicator, airspeed, etc. (not referring to switch panel or radio. I have not been able to get it to work with MSFS 2020. I have downloaded the latest logitech file claiming to allow it to work. My device manager shows it correctly identified as Logitech USB flight instrument panel BULK, but the only thing that happens when the instrument panel appears to activate is the down up arrows flash and there is a glow on the screen.

I would really appreciate any help that can be offered. Thank you so much!

Hi Toni,

Thanks for your help. I have that installed. I tried deleting and reinstalling MSFS as well. I welcome any other suggestions.

spad next works with the panels I am told but I was on the website and there is no mention of the instrument panels being supported. (these are the ones that are the round display instruments, for example the turn slip indicator

Did you find that they can work with the round instruments?

check if you have an XML called .exe in this path.
If you do not have it put this to see.

I could not find that full path. I could get to c:/users/scott/ NO APP DATA

I clicked on the link you sent me. it opened a file showing a path. Can you tell me where I put that?

… Be right back. Logitech support is calling

it’s a hidden folder - you need to look at folder settings and show hidden folders

After showing hidden files I got through to page after Packages. There was nothing called Microsoft.Flight… anything?

Hi Toni,

I clicked on your link, and it gave me the file I cut and pasted. Advise on what to do with it? Thanks again!

Thank you. I followed your advise. I did not find the path Toni refers to… No microsoft.flight… any ideas would be appreciated as always. Thank you.

What logitech add-ons do you have … so we can know which drivers to install later to see if I can give you a video to get the USB up and running.

Hi. Apart from the Logitech driver you have already installed, go down to the Logitech drivers page and download and install the driver for the panel FIP (64bits, and the date if I remember is from 2017). You need to have installed the two drivers not only the main one.
i have three FIP panels working great in Msfs2020.
Cheers
