Gladiator Axis problem

Postby Matt1988 » Sun Dec 18, 2016 19:49

Hello everyone, from the first time I connected the stick on computer I noticed that the Y axis is not centered (just above), so i calibrate via wizzo.
These days I also had problems with thorttle Z axis, when is fixed at 75% circa the line is unstable on joy tester.

Even after calibrating it seems not work
Firmware: 1.80.8

Thank you

Hi Matt,

a few pointers here:

- Never calibrate VKB devices using Windows Joystick Applet; if you did, restore to the default setting from within Windows Joystick Applet!

- In WIZZO, calibration requires all axes to be moved to their full extent.

- With Gladiator (Pro), don't forget to calibrate throttle axis as well.

- Also, can you please provide screenshots from the VKBDevCfg software: we need the General page, and from the Profile page the "physical" and "logical" axes.

- In addition, what's your current Windows version?

Thanks.

Did you make calibration by windows?
Please send me screenshot from VKBjoytester. Don't move stick, but just move trottle wheel to full range few times by small speed.
I think, the throtlle potentiometer have problem. But I need to see the screenshot first.
