In this case it seem to be insane nitpicking. If you would use it for dogfighting but all dogfighting planes I know uses joysticks for a reason. I imagine most real aircraft have a deadzone in the center. It may actually be preferred as to not cause unwanted interaction.

Yesterday a person from Honeycomb recently posted on their Facebook page that the reason some yokes have a deadzone, and some do not, is that some of the early production units were calibrated incorrectly at the factory, giving them a deadzone they should not have. My yoke from the original preorder has a 5mm deadzone in elevator, and a 9° deadzone in aileron (5% of total rotation!). Also, I have found out that the yoke has a built-in "hidden" calibration routine that can be invoked to recalibrate with no deadzone at all - but those that have been told this procedure have been instructed to not make it public, as they are concerned a user could screw up their yoke even worse.

when i set mine up it had a pretty nasty deadzone due to rough calibration in the factory. there is a secret procedure to access the factory calibration mode, during which you have to set a zero point after turning it both left and right. any difference in these values programs the firmware deadzone. i used a pool cue on the floor to return mine to exactly the same point for both zero points and the deadzone is completely and totally gone, to the point where i can have 3 different position values in the resting position. if this causes trim issues i'll just iron them out with a software deadzone in the sim. couldn't be happier now

I got mine now some weeks ago. You can recalibrate it to remove the deadzone if there is any. I don´t have any deadzone at all and didnt have to recablibrate. One thing that can happen for me though is that cable that goes in between when it get perpendicular it create such resistance so I have to push that coil before the yoke moves. And thus there is kind of a deadzone pushing it! If I hold the cable out no deadzone. I will work it so the telephone cord is not to tight that should fix it. I only notice it in diview though in application its a complete non issue. It´s very responsive.

It's not really a deadzone in a real plane more just mechanical inertia and play before a controll surfice moves from your input. ( Or from external forces) The pressure of wind and Wight of the controll surfices fundimentaly change the dynamics of using a real yolk and can only.really be emulated with a FFB yolk. Non ffb devices should not have deadzones as it just gets in the way of precise input. Real plane I flew felt like totall crap in the yolk but due to g-forces and forces in the yolk it was 100x more precise than any non ffb joystick I have used 🤣

Have you tried this? Found it on their website regarding the deadzone: "How do I fix the "deadzones" with my yoke? If you are experiencing "deadzones" with your yoke, then this is most likely a software issue. Make sure you have the latest drivers for the simulation you are using. You can find them here. You should also make sure that you download the simulations latest update as well. If you are using any simulation through Steam, there's a setting within Steam that may cause your "deadzone". To disable this: Open your Steam application At the menu bar, follow this path: Menu > Steam > Settings Click on 'General Controller Settings' Uncheck the box where it says "Generic Gamepad Configuration Support""

Actually, a slight dead zone in roll axis isn't a big deal, and in an actual small GA plane depending on speed, there is a similar effect where slight roll axis inputs don't create a noticeable change in flight attitude (although, of course, there is a change to aileron deflection). You will typically be putting in much larger roll axis inputs at all times than pitch axis inputs. I don't have the Honeycomb yoke, but I wouldn't be put off from getting one because of the slight roll axis deadzone you show. Pitch sensitivity is much more important. The kind of fine adjustment necessary that you describe is far more often utilized in pitch movement, particularly when landing. And this yoke seems to have good tension for feel and no detent for smooth operation, and that's FAR more important compared to the kind of inexpensive flight sim yokes we've had up to this point.

I don't know why you're so sure this can be addressed by firmware. I pulled apart a joystick and one of the spring mechanisms had a sort of play to it that was contributing to the deadzone.

Fair enough , I was going by the fact some guy removed deadzone using a different PCB mod. There could be multiple things causing deadzone more or less for different people 👍

you need to update this video and explain that a rushed calibration causes the dead zone and that any dead zone can be fixed by a recalibration.

Even recalibration with the tool does not fully fix the deadzone with all yokes.

I highly doubt that for 239 quid it has a dead zone but also has “Aerospace grade internal components”.... I’ll have to ask some pilots if fly by wire has a dead zone. Maybe it does, I’ve never flown a plane.

Hello, have you actually flown a real airplane? Unless you fly a flight by wire airplane with a sidestick ( airbus, falcon 7x, gulfstream 500)... you will have an actual deadzone in flight controls. So that means that the control is realistic, and maybe that deadzone characteristic was part of the built design.
@GamerMuscleVideos
@GamerMuscleVideos 4 жыл бұрын
Yes I have , and you have g-forces in a real plane so controls can be utter shit and still feel fine. Deadzone is not a good thing to have in an input device , if a player wanted a deadzone they can add it in the games software.
