Ihave a Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS myself and found the in-game calibration to be exceptional. It automatically applied all the buttons as if I was flying the A-10C. To custom calibrate your HOTAS go into Controls and their should be an option on top of the screen to select which part of your HOTAS you want to calibrate.

From there you should see a picture of your device with a bunch of dedicated numbers telling you which button is what. Then go into whatever you want to calibrate, Primary Flight Controls, Autopilot, etc. and select the button you want to calibrate with the Input selection. Select the number that corrisponds with the picture of your device and select the button number from the Input selection and press Validate.


Sure I read somewhere that Windows automatically calibrates new devices although it may take a few seconds to do it. I'd guess it also helps if you do a "full and free movement" check of the controls before you taxi, as you would IRL.


I have noticed, however, that sometimes the button/slider allocations aren't right and need you to make manual changes. I use a T.Flight Hotas4 which is generally okay but the Xbox 360 controller has been "changed" a couple of times in updates.


To calibrate your Xbox One controller, make sure you have an up-to-date version of the Xbox One console software. Then, connect the controller to your console via a USB cable, and press the Xbox button to turn it on. Next, press the menu button on the controller and select Settings, followed by Devices & Accessories. Finally, select the controller you want to calibrate and choose Calibrate Controller.


Calibrating an Xbox One controller is a simple process that only takes a few minutes of your time. It is important to calibrate your controller in order to ensure that it is functioning properly and that you are getting the most out of your gaming experience. Calibrating your controller allows you to adjust the sensitivity and accuracy of your controller, as well as ensure that all of the buttons are working correctly.


The calibration process is not difficult or complicated, but it is important to follow the instructions carefully in order to ensure that the process is done correctly. This guide will provide step-by-step instructions on how to calibrate your Xbox One controller so that you can get the most out of your gaming experience.


If your controller is still not functioning properly after calibration, there are a few things you can do to troubleshoot the issue. The first thing you should do is make sure that the batteries are properly inserted and that they are charged. If the batteries are not properly inserted or if they are low on charge, this could cause the controller to not function properly.


If the batteries are properly inserted and charged, then the next thing you should do is check the connections. Make sure that the controller is firmly connected to the console and that all of the cables are properly connected. If the connections are loose or if the cables are not connected properly, this could cause the controller to not function properly.


If the connections are secure and the cables are connected properly, then the next thing you should do is check for any software updates. Make sure that the console and the controller are both up-to-date with the latest software. If the console or controller is not up-to-date, this could cause the controller to not function properly.


Once you have checked the batteries, connections, and software updates, the next step is to check the controller settings. You can access the controller settings by opening the Xbox Accessories app. From here, you will be able to adjust the sensitivity and accuracy of the controller, as well as map the buttons to your liking.


The final step in calibrating an Xbox One controller is to test it out. Once you have calibrated the controller, it is important to test it out to make sure that it is functioning properly. You can do this by playing a game or using an app that requires the use of the controller.


If the controller is functioning properly, then the calibration was successful. If the controller is not functioning properly, then you may need to go back and adjust the settings or try troubleshooting the issue.


Calibrating an Xbox One controller is a simple process that only takes a few minutes of your time.

Once you have calibrated the controller, it is important to test it out to make sure that it is functioning properly.


By calibrating your Xbox One controller, you can ensure that the console is accurately registering your inputs. This is especially important for games that require precise inputs, such as sports or fighting games. Calibrating your controller can also help to reduce controller lag, allowing for a smoother gaming experience.


If you do not calibrate your Xbox One controller, you may experience issues with controller inputs not being registered correctly by the console. This can lead to issues such as inputs not being registered correctly in-game, or the controller behaving erratically.


For anyone that is using the FBWA320 with the Xbox controller. What is the proper way to calibrate the reversers? Not sure if you guys use the right trigger to engage them or another input on the controller.


Can I ask, with a top of the line PC with a GPU thats worth 2k+ and your into fly simming, why are you using a Xbox control when you could buy a stick at least and some rudders. To enhance your sim'ing or is msfs more a game?


Probably just using it for the drone and just wants to program the reversers on a button. I was thinking about doing that but I purchased axis and ohs and make programming stuff like that very easy on my throttle quadrant


I need some help to figure out the weird message I get into the Joy calibration window; even if I calibrated the joy and double checked all the assigned axes and key, I still get the message in the screenshot below: "Multiple axes assigned to pitch, roll, yaw".


Honestly sounds weird for me having this error message...I keep both Gladiator and XBox controller always plugged in and with other Sims I have no issue at all...since of course I cannot use both at the same time ( Ithink)...MSFS 2020, DCS or other sims give no error messages about that.....


The issue you all have described is precisely the one I've discovered in the process of trying to figure out why XPlane won't recognize pitch /roll/yaw input from my CH flight sim yoke (all other buttons and switches work fine and are fully assignable. Plus, I know the three axes are working as I can observe the inputs in the calibration routine).


I'm inclined to agree with Dan's assessment, that it's a default of some kind. Because, in my case, I have no XBox 360 controller plugged in, nor do I have any additional hdwe plugged in besides a mouse and 2nd monitor (both of which I've run the pgm without - just to be sure). And yet, there's the XBox 360 controller, in every hdwe profile, right alongside the flight yoke and pedals.


The question for me is, how do I get rid of it? The (nonexistent) XBox controller seems to be taking priority over the (extant) CH flight sim yoke and pedals that are plugged in. Either that, or the conflict renders these axes null. I've tried everything I can think of to get rid of the XBox 360 profile (there's no "delete" option in setup), including wiping my preferences folder, selecting "ignore" on all axes for the XBox controller, and deleting the Xbox 360 file from the joystick config folder. Nothing has worked - it stubbornly remains, leaving me no way to control the airplane (I actually made a successful departure from SeaTac and a 1 hr. flight using nothing but throttle, pitch & elevator trim, but that's not a fun way to fly, and I stalled on landing by deploying flaps).


I can only think it's a glitch, or perhaps I was queried at some point during installation and given a list of controllers to choose from? I don't recall this, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. And it seems rather coincidental that XBox 360 is the culprit in every case. Not sure why I would have chosen that one, anyway, unless it was first on the list - I've never owned an XBox of any kind.


Thanks - I tried that, along with a whole bunch of other things. The XBox 360 controller remains stubbornly omnipresent in every user profile, even though this computer has never had one plugged into it.


However, I am very happy to report that I finally figured out how to disable it... At the top right of each joystick section on the configuration screen is a slider marked "Axis / Hat". I'm a little chagrined that I never noticed them before, but once I slid that little hummer over to "Hat" (apparently assigning the joystick impulses as hat controls rather than axis controls) my flight yoke suddenly worked!
