pretty sure this stick is done.
« on: January 22, 2025, 09:18:59 PM »
16 yr old x52. It's smooth until it's not. Ya can see the kinda movement I get at times. The stick is not moving side to side, it's a weak spot in the travel it gets confused lol. Whenever ya see me get a kill with this stick its a festivus miracle that should be celebrated with fireworks. Justing gutting it down for a lil while longer. The horror,.... the horror.....the horror

Getting a VKG end of Feb when retirement ship comes in, along with a few upgrades.

That looks more like a rudder issue, trying to make a co-ordinated turn with an over sensitive rudder setup.

Add the control surfaces to your game settings and view the film again, it might show you which axis is jumping.

Not sure what ya mean "add control surfaces".

This rudder is seriously dumbed down..more so than what's on my website...It's usually pretty smooth now days. I can be almost straight on a 6 and ANY minut adjustment and suddenly shot blown, like you see here. This just happens to be in a turn. You still could be right.

Edit: If I dumb it down anymore it pretty much won't work at all. Ha! I'm at 30% on scaling straight across, dead bands and damping at about 20%

Not going to worry too much, VKG gimbal is on bearings and much better sensors. Hopefully I'll be closer to what I used to be.

In the game goto, Options/preferences/flight in the second column click "Display control positions", click OK

In game you will see a box in the screen that has two triangles that represent the throttle and rudder, and a circle in the middle that represents the stick position. I think if you watch the AH film again with those ON you might see which control is jumping

Oh right right right.
Good idea.
