Title: Something wrong with my joystick.
Post by: Maniac on July 18, 2012, 12:45:52 PM: When i push the stick down, the airplane flyes up, when i push the stick up the airplane flyes up...

Can this be fixed?

You can also, if nothing else works, reverse the axis in the calibration screen

In game pull up your clipboard>options>controls>map controllers>"Y" axis>advanced>uncheck "invert axis"

Post by: morfiend on July 19, 2012, 04:12:00 PM: you can invert the axis for the pitch,you may have checked the box for this and thats the reason it's reversed.
Goto options,controls,mapcontrols,select pitch axis and check advanced box. Look to see if the axis is inverted,a check in the box,if not try to select invert axis and see if that solves the issue.

hope that helps!

maybe he miss typed it, but I think he has bigger problems than an axis issue.

LoL I never noticed that or I just assumed it was my dislexia and saw it differently!

Depending on the type of stick it could be many problems but it sounds like the potentiometer is sending the wrong signals.
