Flight controls twitch

Hello,

I’ve been having a problem for some time, where after I use my flight controls, my yoke/stick in game appears to twitch on the elevators, and the throttles also mimic this behaviour after using them too. I’m not sure of the best way to describe it, other than small, erratic and uncontrolled movements. For reference I’m using a t-flight hotas.

Has anyone experienced this problem before, or know the solution? Thanks for your help!

You can see here how after my input, it continues to ‘twitch’.

Use Windows Game Controller applet and see if your controls are twitching without any input when viewing the Calibration screen. If they are, that means you have worn or noisy potentiometers. They may or may not be user repairable.

Yup … if you can get to them a good blast of contact spray can usually fix it.

Another must is after starting MSFS is to do a full controls check routine before you are actually rolling and never spawn in mid air for that first flight or it can end in total disaster.
