Hey Guido,
Discussing the JoyWarrior A-16 mod.
My throttle unit uses 16 buttons and the z axis connection. It had been working fine till last nite. Now there is a deadspot, it is not the pot I changed it. It goes from approx. 156 - 200. This corrresponds to the 0 rpm - 200 rpm range. Low end of the throttles range. Will these modules fail if only one axis is used? Will these modules fail in an intermitant fashion? The module in question does not have many hours use on it. I also tried connecting to the y axis and got same results.
TY

stuff
So,
I'm using a copy of DXTweak2 to define the middle and end point numbers for the pots, so I have a little control. I set something up and went to game. After a short while the pot changes performance. On both ends of the spectrum, the same number pops up. In between the two points, it increases and decreases normally. Its like the pots totally wore out and has had the good stuff scratched off. Its new. It appears to be a progressing badness. Any other ideas? Is it possible for me to test the chip? I'm going to swap it out with my other a-16 unit to see if its this particular mechanical throttle config or the mod it is useing. Let you know.
