Hat Switch on Stick

[twitchy]

I've noticed that since the last patch, the hat switch on my stick doesn't want to look right sometimes, and my stick button that I mapped for my secondary weapon select doesn't want to work sporadicly. It goes away after a few minutes and works fine then. It seems to be at it's worse when I'm first upping. Weird problem, but it has to be game related as I've checked the stick, callibrated it, and all the buttons work in other applications.

You might want try try to re-map...not sure if it will help...but there is a chance..I have had to do this for secondary weapons once before.

The weird thing about it is that it 'fixes itself' after a few minutes in the air, reminds me of how the tower looks when you first log in, kind of incomplete for a second or two until everything loads, like it's not loading the mapping or something. I've tried remapping the buttons but it still doesn't seem to fix it.

Mine has a small delay when trying to look right with it.

I was asking around in game last night on local channel and apparently there are some other players who are having the same issue with their hat switches not wanting to look to the right, right forwards, and right back.
I don't know if it will help you guys diagnose the problem, but when you switch ot another position like gunner view, it fixes itself sometimes.

Have also noticed that the problem seems to flare up when the game is loading new players, if I fly into range of another player it happens again for a minute until they load up.

Problem is getting worse, now it's starting to affect my rear hat, and top buttons on my stick. I've noticed that I can recallibrate stick in game and it fixes itself temporarily, but comes right back when something appears view of my plane.
I don't think it's the stick, as it works great in other applications, it's something to do with going out of callibration or not loading, or loosing the stick mapping, but it's extremely frustrating. Watching this thread float for a month isn't encouraging either. I've talked to several players in game that are having the same problem and we all seem to have a USB stick, and the last patch seems to be where it started.

Stranger still, I went to the DA last night with one of my squaddies, and everything worked great on my stick there, so apparently it has to be something to do with the MA.  \
