Hello friends. I have the Logitech Yoke, Pedals and Quadrant kit, the always classic.
I can’t get the levers to be at 50% of the travel and mark 50% of the corresponding action (50% accelerator, the same for propeller pitch and mixture). When I put the accelerator at 50% it marks between 20 and 30 at most. and obviously it does not correspond to the position it is in (see calibration image below), however, 100% and 0% correspond to the extremes of the curve.
I have tried the sensitivity settings and it is IMPOSSIBLE to bring the point of the curve to the center of the X/Y coordinates, which would be the physical and electrical center in proportion.
The potentiometers are fine (I don’t see tremors as I have seen in several videos due to intense use) and the strange thing is that in Windows (joy.cpl) it shows me that the 3 levers are correctly centered if I put them halfway ( as seen in the second image). The truth is that it perplexes me and I can’t find a way to adjust it and have the precision I’m looking for. Does anyone have a profile to share so I can try it?
I also have the Logitech program and I couldn’t find a way (beyond the dead center or zero crossing) since the only thing that allows adjustment are the two extremes (minimum and maximum) which are the ones that work well.
It would seem to be a calibration problem as was the case with the old analog joysticks that had a compensation knob under their base, but since there is nothing like that on the modern ones it is difficult for me to find a solution.
Thank you for your attention, I look forward to your responses.

Try this:
Uninstall the Logitech program
Uninstall the drivers for the yoke, quadrant and rudders.
Reboot your PC.
Don’t reinstall any drivers nor utility for them. Windows will manage the devices as standard ones.
With joy.cpl do the entire calibration process.
Even if the calibration looks good, do the process.
Reboot your PC.
Start MSFS and look if it’s OK.
Note: on first pic sensitivity is set at 1%, don’t forget to reinitialise.
If your version of joy.cpl don’t allow to calibrate, use DiView:

As mentioned above, DIView is one of the very few tools that will calibrate Logitech hardware properly!
OKAY. I appreciate your response. Indeed, I only have the logitech drivers for one reason (since Win detects all the basic controls) and that is because without those drivers the front display of the Yoke does not work (I do not have the time or the “elapsed time” of the flight. If you know Some way to recognize it, I will thank you again.
I did not know the DIView program, it is interesting, I found variations in all axes. It marked that halfway through the Z axis it is at 37.14%, which corresponds to 24341 of 65535 and by the calculation I make it should be at 32768 (marking 0 and 100% correctly). I have managed to put everything in order thanks to the DIView program. I am very grateful to you!

I stopped using the Logitech yoke, rudders and quadrant two years ago.
It’s why I forgot the chrono.
You don’t tell if it’s working correctly now in MSFS ?
If yes, don’t worry about anything and let things as they are.
Hi, friend. Well, if you don’t have the Logitech driver installed, neither the clock nor the stopwatch will work. You download them from here: Downloads - Flight Yoke System – Logitech Support + Download DO NOT SET anything, just download the version of your system (Win 10 of 32/ 64 or Win 11 64Bits), then you can use the program that they kindly gave me in the forum (DIView) and with that you adjust the calibration. I have tried it and it works PERFECT. There was no need to remove the Logi drivers.

I’m glad to know all is Ok now.
Glad too I could help you.
