What others say about us
“I've been following development of SPAD.neXt since the very early days, when the Saitek drivers, notably those for the FIPs with continual rearrangement of gauges, totally sucked. I can't imagine flying without SPAD.neXt today. I use Saitek Switch, Radio, Multi Panels, 9 FIPs, Cessna Yoke, Pedals, Trimwheel, and TPM, all mounted in a XTOP panel and running via several powered hubs connected to a networked laptop. Now that we have profiles and snippets it's yet smarter to use even if you are (like me) not that fluent with coding. I notably like (i) SPAD.neXt's reliability and (ii) responsiveness of the author in case of questions/proposals.”
“This program is a vast improvement to the old version of SPAD. It may look daunting at first, but like all things new, once the learning curve kicks in it is very intuitive. Although the developer has allowed a simple free version, it comes alive when the full purchased version is used with the LVARs. Fully recommended if you wish to improve Saitek controls for better immersion in the flight sim.”
“A "Must Have" for Saitek Panels! This is a very good program for anyone using Saitek panels. It gives complete ability to customize the panels for different aircraft, and makes them work great with the PMDG 737NGX. The support by the developer from their forums is very good. It has a nice user interface and is well thought out — a lot more options for customizing than the standard driver interface.”
“Absolutely essential program if you fly FSX with add-on aircraft and have Saitek panels. The sheer power to customize every button, dial, display and light to pretty much anything you want — so much further than Saitek could do, and they make the hardware! Try it for yourself and check out the videos and instructions on how it works. Indispensable.”
“Having been a sim pilot for over 30 years, I can tell you that the development of SPAD.neXt will enhance the world of flight simulation for years to come. If you know nothing about programming, or maybe you're a little scared of technology, SPAD.neXt will let you set up your simulator the way you want. I started using the program when it first arrived and have been impressed with the ease of use and the support from day one! Run, don't walk, to download and try it.”
“Saitek delivered their equipment with 'proof of life' software installed. SPAD.neXt accepted delivery, purged this software, and made it work better than the equipment's own manufacturer ever dreamed it could. They partner with companies like fipgauges.com, who design the best looking multi-functional gauges on the market, and keep them working flawlessly with the latest flight simulators. Is it worth the cost? Yes!”
“Currently SPAD.neXt is a multi-brand platform — not only Saitek (Logitech) users must have it. It's a continuously developing software supporting most popular hardware devices with the most popular sims (FSX, P3D, X-Plane). SPAD.neXt gives you the opportunity to reprogram functionality of your hardware or establish special connections to add-on aircraft (PMDG, A2A…) using online snippets. Special thanks to the SPAD.neXt support team — hardworking people who make customers really enjoy their products.”
