Only because he helped me setup initially and I don't want to screw up my settings bumbling my way through it-great posts!

I'll have to try that with mine as well and hope It works so I don't have to buy new JS

do you live here on the boards? I thought you posted in one of your post somewhere you was a father of 2 and 29 years old?
"ADD" 2 + 9 = 11 + 2 = 13 , I am thinking you must be 13 years old in reality

or just simply "ADD"

It's all good Krusty, summer squeakers tend to do that in here i noticed, and Skuzzy will be contacting him soon. Anyway, I tried some of the slides and such but my rudders are still spiking pretty horrible so not sure what is going on soon.

If the rudder itself is still spiking, it could be that you need to add more deadband or damping. Just remember not to move the lowest slider any lower than the deadband slider.

If it's not spiking, it's just jumping when you give input (doesn't spike when you don't touch it) then it's a matter of setting it to a curve that best suits you. Also could be a control (muscular control, that is) issue where you're not used to the setup, but that's not too likely.

It doesn't really do it too much when I am manually applying rudder but I have noticed that it will not turn when I am twisting to the right. I clicked ''default'' and went from there for awhile with still same results. If comes down to it, I am not sure how to do screen shot on here but I could email you some if you like.

Have you got a Logitech Wingman, by any chance?

Sounds like you've only got partial deflection to one side.

Satieck Cyborg Evo

The Saitek Cyber Evo evolved from the Cyborg Gold USB. With regard to both sticks, when working properly, they're probably the best stick since the Microsoft Precision Pro in terms of bang for the buck. Problem is, both those sticks are notorius for developing "pot" problems over time. Some last for a year or more, most go squirrily after 3-6 months.

If you plan to stay with AH for any lenght of time, get yourself a CH Products joystick.

Hrmph... And here I thought Saitek made decent sticks!

Dangit, I was even considering the Cyborg Evo as a new stick!

Using my Cyborg Gold for 4-5 years now. The Z-axis did break down after about 2 years, the rest is still fine.

Hey Gents...I didn't mean to poop on Saitek. The Evo is a great stick for the money. I've just found the product always seems to develop nose bouce-calibration issues in time.

Krusty go get yourself an Evo. Spend the extra $10 and get a replacement policy from Best Buy, CompUSA or whoever.

Well I was thinking refurbished from Saitek's website (usually half off the full price), but I don't think that comes with a replacement plan...
