I'm having an issue with my setup for my Thurstmaster rudder control. It has been a while since I've run MSFS. When I tried recently the rudder would not work, and when I looked at AAO, AA0 mad some changes to the config, but these changes don't work either.

When I exercise the rudder peddles the "Move Joystick axis" changes to "Slider 0" and the value under the field goes from about 65000 (when the peddles are centered) to 0 (when the peddles are fully moved back on the right.) Moving the peddles from centered to fully back on the left does not change the value under the field at all, i.e., it remains at about 65000. This is reflected in the cockpit by the peddles animating from centered (when the value is 0) to full right when the value is around 65000.

This image may help to visualize my problem.

I hope someone can help me resolve this problem.

Thanks!

 

Sorry, no idea. I tried it with a Thrustmaster T.16000M joystick that also has a slider. Normally that is the throttle, but I've assigned it to the Rudder anyway and it is working fine.

Maybe check the USB Game Controller calibration in Windows? From what you describe, what the device is sending to AAO is already wrong, not a lot that the app can do in that case.

Thanks for the reply. I checked with the game controller calibration app and it was behaving weirdly in that. Then I checked the usb cord, thinking I might try a different port, and I found a switch on the cord that seemed to have a setting for auto sims and flight sims. It had been switched to the auto sim side. When I changed that the usb controller calibration app starting working as you would expect. I think that will fix it in AAO and MSFS too, I have my fingers crossed.
