Had my http://www.amazon.co.uk/Saitek-Cyborg-3 ... 249&sr=8-1 for many years now, even on vista it works great and still going strong, guess they don't make them like they used to ;)This has taken a real beating through the years (no pun intended)

[quote][quote]Ok guys, I found some what of a calibration process but I dont have any confidence in it. Going through the process that was recommended led me to a dead end. But here what I found. Through the Saitek icon in the lower right of the desktop there is a settings/calibration. This will show on a graph the X & Y axis and the throttle plus rudder twist. For the Y axis the red line was twitching far to the left. So to get the axis back to the middle where it should be you have to push the whole stick down (its like a pressure point). This would bring the axis back where it should be, in the middle. But the red line still twitched. So I fired up the sim, took off in my Tomcat...and crashed!
