Title: Jug different?
Post by: bj229r on August 31, 2007, 06:04:26 AM

I only fly N (if eny allows) and afer TONS of fiddling with stick, I cant tell if flight model changed with last patch or did my stick go further downhill all of a sudden--no matter how slight the control input, plane lurches up and down a LOT (gauge on 'advanced' says it is smooth) Danged near impossible to put crosshairs on target with passing shot, acts like T34 trying to fire while running over uneven terrain, maddening

Try recalibrating your joystick. My Rudder axis was doing this the other day, just recalibrated.

Bump ... I had to move my PC recently and I plugged the joystuck into a different USB port. Of course, AH didn't recognise it as the same stick, so I had to remap everything again.

afterwards, I noticed the same problem, the stick was very sensitive and twitchy, until finally I checked the stick scale, and sure enough, it had reset itself to 100% for this "new" stick. After setting up the stick scale again all is back to normal.

SpikesX, how do you like the AV8R? Are the two throttles functioning in AH for multi engine planes?

Yes they work...but bombers are a no-go.

If you use throttle 1 on lancs...it controls the right engine on left wing...but you don't really need to change bomber engine throttles anyway:D

But for 2 engined birds it is great!
