Joystick Calibration problems after Re-install

[Burning Beard]

OK, here is what is going on.....

 

After re-installing CFS3, and Phase 3 I am experiencing random joystick twitching. I am using my trusty on X52 and now it is throwing the planes all over the sky in both CFS3 and OFF. When the mission starts quite often the stick (in game) is in the hard left position without my touching the controls. Then after (or during) take of the stick will twitch to left radically when the controls are held straight forward. I have gone as far as getting it flying straight and level with hands off the stick and watched the stick on the monitor moves radically left (usually) and occasionally right.

 

Thinking it might be the old stick I installed a new ST90 Saitek to test it and by golly it does the same thing. I'm thinking there must be a software command to counteract this (Calibration in game doesn't seem to work) but I dont know where to look.

 

Any ideas guys?

 

Seems odd after all this time flying with out real trouble to have a couple crop up in just a week.

Sounds like you might have multiple controllers in conflict

Remember Rudder Pedals and Joysticks both install with all 3 control axii

Delete the ailerons and elevators on your peds

and delete the twisty rudder on your stick

 

...all assuming you have peds of course

 

But steering wheels, etc. can cause the same issue

 

HTH,

Thanks Duce, that did it.

 

I left a few stogies and a bottle of scotch for you at the O club.
