CH peds causing GV braking??

[Max]

My CH j-stick .throttle & peds are powered via USB hub. Had to relocate the computer and unplugged all cords. Plugged everything back to the hub tho the inputs may be in new slots vs previous placement. Since the change, any GV I select seems to have the brakes applied to a degree. The W,A,S,D controls are mapped to a 4 way hat on the throttle. The only way I can achieve full forward motion involves depressing and sliding the peds back & forth. The only assignment I have set for peds is the yaw axis. Sorry if this sounds confusing 

How do I get rid of the braking motion, which seems somehow related to the peds? I did recalibrate everything in-game and via the control manager.

Thanks in advance.

Add a little  dead band to the pedal  axis. The game sees a bit of a turn and so won't accelerate.

I'll give that a try but I use absolutely no pedal input while GV'n...only the WASD on my throttle hat.

If the pots are a little dirty the game could see that as input. That's most likely  why it clears up when you do wiggle them around.

Adding deadband seems to have cleared it up. No doubt the pots need cleaning....the setup is 10 yrs old.

I had to give up my ch pedals because the spikes caused that worthless error message, don't move your joystick so much.
