Please post a screenshot taken in VKBDevCfg, showing Profile/Axes/Logical and Physical Axes charts.

- This is what happens when the toggle is ACTUALLY pushed forward all the way. The slider suddenly 'flicks' over to the other side erratically.

- This is where the toggle sits when the slider THINKS the toggle is fully pushed forward. Clearly it is not.

- This is the where the toggle sits when the Slider is at centre. "Neutral"

Re: How to & update firmware.
The firmware needs updating, otherwise it won't work properly. Follow these steps exactly please:
1. Download VKBDevCfg;
2. Download zBootloader;
3. Download the firmware package;
4. Unzip them all 3 files in the same, dedicated folder;
5. Run VKBDevCfg, click on the Tools tab, then on the Bootloader button;
6. In the new window click the ... button on the right side and select the file called _Gladiator_NXT_v2_09_0.vkb and double click it to load it up;
7. Click the Flash it! button;
8. After the flashing is done, run VKBDevCfg again and click the Default button (make sure your device is selected in the blue top box);
9. Navigate to Global/External/External Devices and click on the Find&Autoconfig button;
10. After the device restarts click on the SEM name in the middle of the window;
11. Click on the Axes Wizard icon, check the box for the Flaps axis, close the popup window and in main window click on the Action tab, then on the Set button;
12. Click on the Test tab, then on the Axes 1 tab, then on the Tools tab;
13. Click the Start Calibr button and move all the existing axes through their whole range: pitch and roll, twist the grip left and right, push the mini throttle up and down, press the center button of A1 ministick and move it all around when the LED turns red, move the Flaps axis up and down;
14. When done press End Calibr and that's it.
