June 23, 201015 yr I have had my saitek Cyborg X for some time now (around a year and a half) and now some issues have sprung up when I use it.The main one is the fact that when you push the elevators (in my game) down the rudder goes full to the right. This is not a problem with the game as when playing with the keyboard it works fine, this leaves me to believe it could be either a physical problem or the wrong drivers as when I go onto the calibration screen it shows me that it calibrated fine but the same thing happens again.Any ideas-Matty
June 28, 201015 yr Sorry I can't help you as I only just bought the Cyborg X yesterday...it's my first ever joystick and so far I'think it's great...it's taking some getting used to though after just using a generic game controller.The worrying thing now is that yours is the 2nd post I've read that talks about this rudder problem pulling to the right. I guess that's something I've got to look forward to in the future too....sounds like a design flaw! I wonder how many other people have had the same problem!**Edit**Just thought....if you use the auto-rudder setting, does that stop it from happening because it will take away the rudder control from the joystick?
June 28, 201015 yr Interesting. I've a similar problem with erratic rudder swings to the right, particularly when landing. Weather doesn't seem to be an issue, nor does the number/nature of running background processes. The Winxp calibration tool does occasionally show sporadic random rudder movements, so I think its the joystick and am considering returning it under warranty. Shame as otherwise I like the Cyborg.Gerard Gerard Marley

I also have a Cyborg X, and I'm getting uncommanded full right rudder inputs, no matter if it's during taxi, takeoff, cruise or landing. Although I purchased the joystick in Amazon USA, I'm in Colombia; returning it under warranty looks like is not an option for me.Best regards from Colombia,Luis Miguel Best regards,Luis Hernández Main rig: self built, AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D (with SMT off and CO -50 mV), 2x16 GB DDR4-3200 RAM, Nvidia RTX 5060Ti 16GB, 256 GB M.2 SSD (OS+apps) + 2x1 TB SATA III SSD (sims) + 1 TB 7200 rpm HDD (storage), ID-Cooling SE-224-XTS air cooler, Viewsonic VX2458-MHD 1920x1080@120-144 Hz (G-sync compatible), Windows 11.

August 9, 201114 yr Sorry for reviving a year-old post, but I finally solved my problem: I had to re-solder the wiring to the rudder potentiometer and cover it with glue-gun silicone so that it won't break loose again. Hope this helps.
