Hi Cleobis,

Have seen/had this problem before, but in FS2002, and the problem was related to FSUIPC.  Have not had the problem in FS9 with the freeware FSUIPC installed. (Note, there are seperate versions of FSUIPC for FS2002 and FS9.)

Here for a discusson of that problem:  http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=fs2002;action=display;num=...

Do you have the freeware or payware version of FSUIPC installed in FS9?  If freeware version you might remove it and see if that fixes the problem, just move the FSUIPC.dll from the 'modules' folder.  If payware version, look for the 'fix control accelleration' in the FSUIPC config. panel.

Only thing I can think of at the moment.

Cheers,
Dave

I have had this problem also and I do not have FSUIPC I never could find out why it did that. I wound up trashing the plane and its gauges. I wrote it off as a faulty gauge. If no other plane uses the same gauge you might have the same problem 8)
