Does Anyone Know Why my Plane is Spinning Out of Control in Slew Mode in FSX?
kmanning:
Hi,
It seems that I've read about this problem somewhere here but I can't find it. I want to know why it is that every time I use the Customize Parking Position in GSX, which puts the sim into slew mode, my plane starts spinning violently all over the ramp. It does the same thing even when I'm not running GSX so I don't think GSX is the problem here. I've recently purchased the Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick and the TCA Throttle Quadrant, and this is when the problem started. The problem must be caused by one of the 2 TCA devices because when I disable these Controllers in FSX, the spinning stops and slew mode works just fine. Every time I want to make adjustments in the GSX program, my plane starts spinning out of control. I've already read reports that the controller need to be calibrated, or something like that, and that is not the problem here. They have all been calibrated and the controls work just fine. I don't see what calibration has to do with this problem. I've searched the problem and there have been NO logical solution to this problem and it's not hardly mentioned, and nobody seems the know what the real cause of the problem is, except to say that it needs calibrated. Will someone that knows about this problem tell me what's happening and how to fix it.

Ken,
I don't think there is a "solution" to this problem except to disable the USB controllers from FSX/P3D and use FSUIPC for all your USB devices. If I or anyone else with many USB controllers enables them in P3D or FSX you will get the spinning in slew/GSX customization. I'm just fine with disabling all controllers in P3D and using FSUIPC to control my USB devices. If I enable them in P3D I get the spinning. No solution that I am aware of.

This is what I get about the same spinning and also the jetway and the bridge can't be repositioned as intended. Here to watch ...

LOG file also is here.
I disconnected the USB Joystick and no spinning but still jetway and bridge behaving exactly the same.
I don't think the problem is related to USB, before I never had such and never changed anything for the Joystick.
It has to be some missing instructions from GSX engine.

I've had other USB controllers and it's never done that. It only started doing this when I purchased both the TCA Sidestick and the TCA Throttle Quadrant. My previous USB joystick was the microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 and it's never gave me this problem. I've also used the Logitech USB joystick and it's never had that problem. It seems to me that the developers at Thrustmaster should be aware of this and put out a notice regarding this issue, but nothing is NEVER said about it, not even in any of their manuals. I view that as they're not interested with the problem. They want to sell their products but they never get around to fixing the problem.

Mine plane does not sit there in one spot and spin. The plane is all over the field, moving at about 500 knots or more going sideways and spinning at the same time.
