Title: Joystick Response
Post by: bassur99 on October 29, 2002, 10:04:00 PM

I switched from TM FLCS to the Cougar recently and have noticed a loss of responsiveness in control of the aircraft. I’m not able to roll as quickly, loop as quickly or pull turns as sharp. I can hardly force a blackout! I’m hoping someone can tell me what’s wrong. Anyone have a clue?

Thanks

2 things.

1 - when you install a new j/s and/or drivers, it always wise to reinstall DX afterwards.

2 - double check your scaling/dampers/deadbands. not all sticks respond equally. recalibrate and start from say the lowest possible deadband/dampers and then adjust your way to happiness.

I’ve found what may be the answer to my problem, haven’t tested it yet.

Prior to connecting the Cougar, I had formatted my hard drive and reinstalled Aces High. Apparently, in an update, HighTech Creations added a “stall limiter” to the game. It appears that “Stall Limiter” was enabled after my install. I have yet to reconnect the Cougar and determine if this has solved the problem.
