Sometimes mapped axis are dead on second or later flight

Featured Replies

Using 4.10.b51 with MSFS2020.  In recent weeks I see an issue after I return to the  main menu and start a new flight and sometimes when restart a flight.  

The mapped axis still move on the AAO app, but not in the sim.  Buttons are working OK, just axis are dead in the sim.

Restarting the app does not fix. The only way to fix is to exit MSFS from main menu and start again.

The problem is never seen on the first flight. It does not happen on every second flight.  But often enough to be time-waste.

Mostly I am flying helicopters recently.  Seen this issue using several different helicopter models/makers.

Nothing unusual about the axis mapping. The axis are on VKB joystick and Honeycomb Bravo.

There are no other simconnect applications running.

I have generally removed lorbysi-content-fippanel as I do not use its features.

I could test some fixed wings again if you think it would provide data.

Then it is not the app that is the problem, it is something in your sim or with the aircraft. What kind of "axis" are we talking about exactly? I've never heard of anything like this before.

Joystick axis and button pickup are connected. If there was an error, neither of the two would work.

Yes "in the sim" is what I guessed as well. Dead Axis is Helicopter cyclic(2) and collective. Also throttle. 

Just wondered if anyone else sees this.  

I will move the Axis controls to Sim control page to see if different.

It must be different. AAO and Sim control assignments are not related, those are two completely separate mechanisms.

Be mindful that MSFS in general prefers the Events (second box from the top) over the Axis variables (first box).
