Yoke movement limits on Xplane

Featured Replies

Hello All.

 

I have a question and maybe an issue.

I use a Saitek Pro Flight Yoke and use Xplane and Zibo.

Both are fully updated.

My question is: 

The yoke have a 45 degrees movement for Roll axis.

when I roll the yoke for left or right, the yoke on Zibo also goes 45 degrees, as we can see on the Img1 below.

But when I move the aircraft yoke with the mouse, we can see that it rolls 90 degrees.

so the question is: when I use the yoke, even if I turn 45 degrees, the aircraft recognize it as 90 degrees, even if the animation shows only 45?

Or 

I have an issue where the aircraft only moves 45 degrees and I have a lack of movement?

if the situation is the second one, is there a way to solve this?

Edit:

I enabled the Output data and saw that is an issue. the yoke don't move all the way.

on calibration, the yoke works fine but for some reason, on the airplane, the yoke only move 1/3 of the total.

 

Is there a way to fix it?

Go and tune the response curves for the yoke in the GUI menu for that. You can see how the yoke (joystick) moves and the way that the X-Plane controls will respond in that graphical representation.

It is also possible to "tweak and tune" this response curve to your liking, add a deadzone, etc.

Cheers, Jan

I checked the curve and it's working fine.
On my second post I posted the image testing on the cessna. the yoke goes to 1.000.
