Joystick Sensitivity Question

Featured Replies

Hi...I am using Airbus Thrustmaster joystick (no rudder pedals) with FBW a32nx.  

The plane always want to pull violently to the left when at neutral while taxi.  

What sensitivity settings should I use to prevent this?  Thanks

Dunno, mine worked straight out of the box.  I haven't had to adjust the sensitivity at all except for toning down the rudder a bit.

I did change my views from 'snap to view' to 'freeview'.

Hmm...I thought there was a special setup needed for FBW?

Try Twitchy Taxi Fix - MSFS (2020) Tips and Tricks Forum - The AVSIM Community but the setting should be -.50 for the Rudder Authority. It is located in the customizations page.   Also set the dead zone on your twist grip to .2 and sensitivity to -.25

These settings differ by plane.

I could not locate "rudder authority."  I think my problem may be a defective joystick.  I can't fly any FBW plane without it making violent turns and rolling on takeoff and especially on landing like it is in a tornado.
