Unplugging the rudder and plugging it back in was the answer for me, thank you very much! I wouldnā€™t have thought to try that without your comment.

My rudders centered were at 50% left, so full left rudder was 100% left and full right rudder was straight ahead. So I could only fly a NASCAR circuit lol

But unplugging and replugging it worked. Now it has full left/right rudder authority.

Awesome, glad it helped!

I have the same problem now, only getting 20% left rudder. Tried to unplug but did not help. Any suggestions?

So there is a couple downloads from thrustmaster, one a driver i think for memory, then another one called precision something arather, sorry i have new pedals now, but i think the precision one helped. If u get stuck let me know ill look after

Thatā€™s interesting, my Thrustmaster rudder pedals are stuck on full right rudder and no matter what I do I canā€™t get them to center out!

Are the pedals damaged/faulty? what does it say in windows calibration (https://www.howtogeek.com/241421/how-to-calibrate-your-gaming-controller-in-windows-10/)? do the pedals work in other games?

No, they work perfect in IL-2 & DCS, the problem is just in MSFS. I know itā€™s weird I know, but I have read somewhere there was problems with rudders in MSFS. Sure would like to figure it out though and use the sim, thank you for the suggestion though I appreciate the help.

So Iā€™ve been having this problem for 2 weeks, just resolved it today. Itā€™s really weird, everything was working fine and one day after cleaning the PC it started happening. To keep it short, hereā€™s how i solved it:

  1. The braking problem - You will find that if you reversed the axis on the toe brakes (pressing the top releases the brakes) then it works. I was really confused at first what was inhibiting the FBWA320 not to go, and it wasnā€™t the parking brakes nor the tug. Fix: go to the controls in MSFS for brakes and reverse the axis first. Confirm plane moves when pressed. Once it is, go back to the controls, press the brakes so that the sensor goes to 0%. Uncheck the reverse axis while keeping the toes pressed, and go back to the plane straight away. Once in the plane, release the toe brakes and the plane should go. This is now fixed

  2. Rudder does not go all the way to the left - Forget using the thrusmaster drivers because they provide more confusion. Go to devices and printers in Windows control panel, right click on the device to remove it. Restart the PC. The rudders should then reinstall by itself, and checking the game control settings you should be able to see that going left should put the Z axis all the way to left/zero.

Thanks for the tips folks. I just had this exact problem happen to my pedals, eventually uninstalling the driver did fix it. Much better than being a hardware failure like I first suspected.

Want to add for xbox. Have the TCS and quadrant, rudder connected to the quadrant. Left rudder would move only 50% with full left.
Disconnecting the flight stick from xbox while all 3 connected and reconnecting does solve the issue.
Just disconnecting the rudder does not help.

I had the same issue before. I plugged my rudder pedal into another usb port, and everthing works fine for me
