Cyclic Loses Function - Randomly

[RCFlyer]

Pete:

 

I am using a Warthog Hosta Flight stick with P3dV2.5.  I have started to experience a partial loss of cyclic function (either pitch or aileron) randomly.  When I start the sim the cyclic will function normally.  After a period of time flying, the cyclic will lose half of the travel for pitch or aileron.  Oddly, only half of the movement will be lost.  To recover full function I have to restart the sim.  I have tried reassigning the axis, recalibrating, reloading the aircraft, etc., with no luck.  I started to experience this after updating to version m, and, it has continued with version n.

 

When I go to the axis assignment page and rescan the axis, fsuipc shows full function +&-16838 for the cyclic.  Yet when I go into the calibration section I still only have half of the function.  Only after restarting the sim can I regain full function.

 

I have tried to attached a copy of the log, but, the system will not allow me to do so.

 

Any suggestions as to how I might resolve this would be appreciated.

 

Regards,

It sounds rather as if there are conflicting assignments or actions going on. There's no way FSUIPC will change any parameters itself.

You can paste text file contents into messages. But there's no point merely pasting in a normal log. You'd need to enable some relevant logging option and conduct a more scientific test.
