I did, and found heaps of difference. At the moment, I'm using the WH exclusively to fly RoF, so I had to set small negative curves in the X & Y axis to make the stick more sensitive through the "bump"; needless to say, this hampered stall fighting somewhat. Well, no need for curves anymore (mind you, I transitioned from an NXT modded Cougar, with which I had to use positive curves, as it required increasingly higher force to move the stick to the extreme offsets).

P.S.: Don't be alarmed by the unstable values reported in the device analyser when the stick is mechanically dead-centered; resolution is so high that in the sim this doesn't matter in the slightest.

Happy new year everyone! beercheers


Happy New Year lamarax

I don't think changing the deadzone would have any effect on the very large force change required moving thru the center of travel. Although I would have tried your option, but the Warthog was returned yesterday. My particular Warthog Throttle also had a hat switch that didn't work properly. It's a beautiful piece of kit and I hated to let it go.
