 Heya Bort! :salute


   Come see me in the TA and I'll see if I cant help with your joystick. The logitech sticks have problems with the potentiometers going bad so you could be having a spiking issue.

   Open clipboard,goto control maps and watch the numbers on each axis,if they are jumping around or dont transition smoothly then you likely have bad pots.,check the advanced box and look at the "raw" window,move the JS through it's movement and watch the slider. It should move up and down in a smooth linear fashion,if not again you have bad pots.  You will have to select each axis and test to see which if any axis is affected.

   hope this helps,if not like I said look me up and I'll see if I cant help you further.
