There is NO programmed deadzone in the game.
In fact, it is strictly prohibited by Microsoft TCRs (rules for submission all games).
However, Xbox360 ITSELF has deadzones for all controllers - internal.
Nothing here is in our power (or anyone's, except MS).

P.S. That's not a case on PS3.

So can you talk to MS and find out how to set the deadzones on the flightsticks? like you can do with the MS racing wheel in Forza 2?

I do not know how bad it might be, since I don't have the ace edge yet... but I know that you can adjust the "deadzone" with the MS wheel in both the racing games I have... so for instance I can set it so it will not register me touching the brack pedal until I go past 10 %, then it will travel 100% until 95% where it tops out... so I can still push it all the way down, but I don't have to go all the way. ( I might not be explaining this the right way. ) Or possibly talk to MS to allow for some kind of calibration settings via dashboard?

Either way, I can live with a deadzone a lot better then trying to fly with the controller sticks being opposite of how I would want them to be.

Great job either way in bringing a flight sim to the console!!!!

Good ol MS controlling the game experince whether it makes sense or not.
Both sony and MS screw gamers in FPS games too, not allowing people who HATE gamepads to use a mouse/keyboard.

At some point they just need to drop the stupid licensing/restriction crap with regards to controllers and make it "anything goes" like with PCs.

So, what can be done, will Microsoft fix this or should I just sell my ace edge now?

Are you saying there is NO DEADZONE on the PS3 version? If thats the case I will get the PS3 version instead of the xbox version, please elaborate more on PS3 version deadzone, thanks!

There is a dead zone problem on the PS3 title but not so evident if using the controller. I have 360 & PS3, copies of BoP foreach, an Aviator for 360 & the T.Flight HOTAS X for PS3 & the not only are the dead zone problems obviously evident in both but with the PS3. T.Master stick, there is also the added problem of near unuseable hat switch views .... go figure!

Aye, there is no apparent deadzone using the pad with the ps3, but there is a noticeable one using a joystick. I'm hoping this means it is something that could be fixed, for ps3 joystick users at least.
