on top of the massively slow FPS i'm experiencing,in P1529, more fun! in almost everyAC type i'm trying to fly(pp6.1 and P1529), I experience a massive amount of tourque to the left, and have to fight( cranked all the way to the right) to go right. this is not just in AC's that have a lot of tourque. Is this an FM change? or would it be a problem with Joystick(MS-sidewinder precision pro)( one year old)? haven't had this occur before, any advice?

GP,

My MS sidwinder did the same thing. All planes (in different games too) wanted to do a hard left roll with stick neutral position.

My solution...... new stick!

Well, gonna be in the market for a new stick.It's gone from rolling to the left, to a power dive, regardless of flaps and power. ( yeah, I know,it's called gravity!!) Any suggestions/recommendations?

Are you having this problem in other games?

I became addicted to my MS Precision Pro. I use the 16 programable keys extensively in SDOE (hate to use the keyboard when flying, especially two-key commands). So when my stick crapped out I bought a new one on Ebay since they don't make the 16 button one anymore.

OK, you are cordially invited to line up and give me a boot in the butt! ( always check under the hood!) The connector pin wasn't completely pushed in!! some how, it came partially unseated, I re connected, and gravity is no longer insurmountable!!! D-OOOOHHH!!
