Lude2Envy Posted July 25, 2006 Report Posted July 25, 2006 Hey. I installed Squawkbox 3 today and now my throttle on my Sidewinder 2 Force Feedback is acting strange. When I close the throttle on the sidewinder all the way, it doesn't close all the way in the plane. The same thing happens with opening the throttle....it doesn't open all the way. I tried a couple different planes and they're all acting the same. The only way I can get the throttle to open or close all the way is to use the keyboard after using the sidewinder. Anyone have any idea whats wrong? Thanks.

Lude2Envy Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Posted July 25, 2006 It worked fine before yesterday and the only thing I did differently yesterday was install squawkbox. I calibrated my joystick and it works fine in the calibration wizard. Once I get into flight sim thats when its off.

I calibrated my joystick and it works fine in the calibration wizard. Once I get into flight sim thats when its off. Check the sensitivities and null zone in FS. The sensitivity slider should be at or near max (full right) and the null zone slider \ero, full left. Really, unless you've gone into FSUIPC options and tried calibrating it there it isn't anything to do with any of my software nor Squawkbox. I'm not sure why you are asking here? Regards, Pete
Lude2Envy Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Posted July 25, 2006 I never touched the sliders for the sensitivities or null zone. I uninstalled squawkbox. I posted here cuz I figured it may have something to do with FSUIPC....or maybe you'd know how I could fix it with FSUIPC.
Lude2Envy Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Posted July 25, 2006 NM I fixed it. Thanks for your help.
