I got the DXDeadzone adjuster from the wingman site, but I'm not sure where to place the slider. The default deadzone is 5%. Where are you guys setting it at? Thanks

The closest to zero possible. The only problem might be related to the quality of your wheel and your potentiometer. Having no deadzone can produce a very twitchy feeling on cheap wheels. That's why the deadzone exists, to damper the effect of neutral joystick inputs because of the small frequency from wear. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- People think it must be fun to be a genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.
