Joystick issues - Logitech Extreme 3D Pro

[fnerg]

I was thinking, because I'm having problems with my Joystick having only 20% right rudder control, and because everyone else who bought this stick suffers the same, maybe there is a .cfg for the way it responds to FS9. Well, I searched my drive c/program files/logitech and found a FTP site. I went there and found more info: profiler/readme/pub/techsupport/joystick/wm_profiles/
flight_sim_2k4.wgp/
and the following which seems like a .cfg file. Now the only thing - is this edit capable? If you see the rudder section suppose there is a numerical value which will prevent the right rudder from resetting to 10-20%? I don't know. I'm not a tech, I just have an Idea. Can anyone help? I've just bid on a Saitek st330 on EBay, which may be my only solution. But, curious as always...

I'm afraid I can't help. I got that same stick last year but it developed similar issues and it appears it's not a very well made stick (at least as far as those sensors is concerned). It's a pity as it's design was great and had a nice lot of buttons (I used and liked the logitech cordless logitech freedom stick and that had better construction materials).

Just bite the bullet and buy a Saitek, the difference is like night and day. You'll really enjoy FS so much more.
Off topic: Been to Nova Scotia on vacation, it is very beautiful country up there.
