While playing and holding steady, any aircraft will randomly roll despite that not being the command. Is this a hardware issue or soft ware?
It can be frustrating and it’s random when it does it
-
Engine Prop Torque. Try using auto-level.. however, if it is popping out of auto level it is your controllers that are at issue
-
Define holding steady. Auto pilot level? Manually trimmed but no auto-pilot? Combat trim no auto pilot?
Film would help illustrate the issue.
Any difference in AOA between the wings would create unequal lift and roll the aircraft.
I assume you aren't referring to the propeller rotating the aircraft since it's a random unexpected occurrence.
An aircraft's weight and momentum are only supported by air pressure, this affects stability. It's part of the flight model in AH.
If you have a hardware issue like the stick spiking on the roll axis you could see that in the clipboard controller setup advanced page.

To best describe it it only happens 98% of the when I’m in manual control utilizing stock setting ie not messing with trim or combat trim. And it’s only rolling right.
Not that I think about it I wonder if a driver might need updated or something
It’s not the torque at all it’s like I just used a littl rudder and started rolling left.
I forgot where the spiking is. I was thinking about that today and didn’t have the time to invest investigate. I’ll have to look in to that. I think the issue is Deff my controllers at this point tho.

Re calibrate your stick/rudder/etc?
-
Bring up your clipboard go to Controls/Map Controllers/Advanced.
Now check each axis to see what is spiking

Try a P-38 and see if it still does it

I adjusted some of the setting and it does it less. But there is deff something up with the joystick.y axis numbers are constantly changing like you were applying input. And a odd thing I discovered that depending on how I use it, my throttle gets changed. I’ll have to check drivers when I can and calibrate with Microsoft and ah again

check through all your stick settings... I had a issue on saturday where my plane would turn combat trim off... I found the key it was mapped to...(Never mapped it before) I also found that I had trim set to buttons on my contrllers...again never mapped myself before...In fact never ever manually trimmed in game...oh maybe once 9 or 10 years ago iplayed with it but...too many buttons to remember ....
I also noticed that I have a lot of simultaneous inputs happening...even when doing nothing except looking through the controllers....set them all to none...

Try adding deadband and damping to the Y axis since it's spiking.
If you take the stick apart you can try spraying the potentiometer with contact cleaner to reduce the spiking.

I can try this even tho I have no idea what you just said lol
The dead band helped helped a lot but I I’ll try dampening.
Theres deff something funky with my stick cuz I noticed today when I went to roll and pulled back my wep turned off and I noticed my throttle had a small hiccup moment. Idk if it’s cuz the stick sat in a box and may have had something fall on it but this is annoying.
It doesn’t help I’ll get random don’t move your controls to fast in the middle of a fight.

Try a power USB hub to make sure the devices are getting enough voltage

That’s something I can try. When my kid gets picked I plan on looking inside the joystick and cleaning out and rearranging my hubs.
I’ll keep you all updated
