alhefner Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I just got the basic CH yoke today and really haven't had much time to fiddle around with things (I had to leave for work less than an hour after it arrived). I did hook it up and all the basic functions are working but, when I tried to calibrate it using the windows 7 calibration utility (I think that's what FSX calls up for calibrating controllers), the elevator axis settles in a good distance above where the center should be. After some research here at work ( I love my job!), it seems that the trim tab wheel might have some influence on that? I guess my basic question is, how do I calibrate all the axis properly if the calibration provided by FSX doesn't get things aligned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinrobin Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Do you have something else assigned to the elevator axis in FSX as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alhefner Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 Nothing else assigned to that axis. Since this is a double post (two different forums!) because I pulled a dumb move and didn't read the stickies first, this thread should be deleted.

CrazyDaveIowa Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Same issue here. I'm not sure if I actually have anything assigned to the trim wheel or not, but I found that (when in spot view) if I fiddled with the trim wheel I could center the elevators. For me, I have the wheel full in the up rotation. since then no problems.

CrazyDaveIowa Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Just double checked and the elevator axis in FSX is not selected for the CH Yoke but the trim wheel still acts upon it. Any movement of the trim wheel pegs the elevators down until I rotate wheel full down, not up as I said in previous post. Hope this helps. PS, I do not use CH manager.
