When flying Mr. Henderson's P-35, the throttle moves around wildly. For instance, the throttle won't stay at idle, (it moves up to half) and it won't stay a full, (it moves down to half). This is making the otherwise wonderful plane unflyable.
Thanks for any help,

A second controller was plugged in and FS was taking inputs
from both. Unplugged the unwanted one and... problem solved.

what kind of controller did you have that was messed up?? and kind does work??

as for the one that is messed up, all that might need to happen is a recalibration. (that is unless the sensors inside of it are messed up)

It's a Hanger 9 TacCon controller. It's for the R/C flight simulator FS One and its caused trouble before. Even though FS One is a completely different format, FSX still recognises the throttle setting, causing my joystick to misbehave.
