I'm having an annoying problem whilst using my Cyborg FLY 5  Joystick.

When I add a tiny bit of power using my throttle quadrant on my joystick, in FSX, it adds full throttle for no apparent reason. I have no idea whatsoever why it's doing this as it just went like this by itself.
It's so annoying when I'm taxiing and it goes into full throttle for no reason!

Anyone wanna shed some light on this annoying problem?

Cheers

Maybe it's broke.

If you have one, try a different joystick.

You could try to calibrate the stick and see what you get on the throttle.

Maybe the throttle is in digital mode and needs to be Analog. Or you could have it set in repeat mode.

Topcat747 if you pm me your email address I'll email 2 programs for tweaking joystick settings and will let you look at the raw data coming from your joystick, you'll see right away if it's your joystick thats causing the problem.

You can edit the joysticks response curve as well if you want.
It can be used on any usb wheel/ joystick.

regards
