One thing that had me thinking my Alpha had a problem was that if you click outside the screen of the plane - if using multiple monitors, the joystick/yoke will not have any input on the plane, and will only again continue to work when you click back on the MSFS 2020 screen.
I have a multi-monitor setup (orig for x-plane) and pop my weather, ai, radio, etc to boxes for use on my other monitors… I had several crashes and thoughts the yoke had an issue until I figured it out, and it still irks me the yoke disconnects from the plane when you click off the screen.
you have the same problem as me, the small airplanes elected I am unable to make a flight without my pro flight yoke the USB this disconnects but not electricity it remains connected I pers the transfer of data
You have the same problem as me, I lose control of small propeller planes, I have to disconnect the USB port and reconnect it every few minutes makes it impossible to make a correct flight.
I had already tried your trick but my problem is not like yours I have 2 screens and when using screen 2 with a MAP this is where it all starts and disconnects with only one screen I don’t think I would have a problem
Here is something that you all may want to try. For months when using FS2020 I would hear some USB device disconnecting (or several) and then the program would hang and sometimes it would spring back to life and sometimes not. This is mainly with AMD processors.
It seemed to be the worst with B550 chipsets but also occurred with the E570 variant as well. It got to the point where I have a new MB on order to see if that would rectify the situation. This am I was exploring a couple of sites discussing the USB situation and someone posted that the issue was the PCI-4 protocol was the culprit. On my Aorus motherboard I am able to configure all the pci-4 slots back to PCI-3. Gave it a shot and have not had a freeze up since. Still have occasion stutters but no USB issues at all. This could possibly help those with controller problems hooked up to USB ports.
