Dear Simmers,

Apologies if this has been asked before but all my aircraft have started
banking slowly to the right. I have a Saitek Evo Force Joystick.
I thought at first it needed calibrated so I checked that and it seemed ok
with cursor centered ok and rudder control centred.

Still does it. Changed sensitivity and null zones as well. Tried a
different joypad and no difference even disabled joystick and tried keypad
but starts to bank to right after a short time.

I have been tinkering with display settings lately and changed realism
settings to hard which I have changed back as I thought the aircraft was
drifting due to the rotation on rotor engines.

Any clues as to what is going on as Im at a loss. I made a backup recently
of the main config file. If I reinstalled that could that correct any
settings which may have been corrupted without my knowledge?

Thanks

Chris

Seems ok now. Checked help file and it stated that if you hold down CTL and
SHIFT while program started all settings
will return to Default. After this I ust set up joystick again and display
settings and all going well for meantime.

I have an idea: When MS releases FS10, they should also sell "Tip of the
Day" toiletpaper. That way you *can* learn a new thing everyday.

Great idea! Why don't you flush that right over to them.

We've often suspected you were full of it, but now we have evidence. :)

Just one word: FIBER!

I don't think they go every day down there because everything is upside down
and they have to strap themselves to their toidies to do their
business.....damn inconvenient, I would say. : )
