Mouse controls helo and jet yaw not working

Ok here is my problem.

From day 1 of BF4 as in BF3 I have my mouse bound to left and right yaw (move mouse yaw left left/move mouse right yaw right)

This was fine up until last night where I got in a helo and moving the mouse to the left did nothing. The right movement still works.

It is the same in jets.

On foot and in other vehicles the movement to the left is as it should be

Have cleared all the keys and rebound them,still the same.

Tried changing the binding to move mouse left=left roll and move mouse right=right roll,this worked fine.

Changed it back to move mouse left=left yaw and move mouse right=right yaw , still no left yaw when moving mouse to the left.

Have tried two different mouse but same problem.

I am using the same settings in BF4 as I did in BF3 but BF4 does not work where as in BF3 it works flawlessly,any suggestions ?

I am using windows 8.1 64 bit

    Have you used the BF Settings Editor (vers 1.1, 2/11/2103)? Exactly this little helper creates the problem. As soon as you change just one Key Binding in BF4 settings editor it somehow corrupts your settings file and Yaw Left is no longer working on any axle of joystick or mouse (keys are still working though). The only way out is to reset your Key Binding to default in Battlefield 4 menu.

    Changing other settings in BF4 Settings Editor like Gameplay, Graphics or Sound has not caused the Yaw problem, only if you change the Key Bindings with it you won't be able to Yaw Left with any axle any more.

    I have used BF4 Settings Editor to bind Delete and Insert keys as they are still not available in BF4 itself... took me a couple of hours to find out...

    Can anyone confirm that?

    Think this might be related to the issue I just posted. I fly with an xbox 360 controller and I have my left trigger bound to decrease throttle for jets and helicopters and right joystick left/right bound to roll. Whenever I have the left trigger depressed my right joystick isn't responding at all. It's only an issue in first person view and not third person.

    Have you tried switching to third person view and seeing if it does the same thing? If its working in third person then I'm thinking the issue is definitely related to the one I have and probably has a common fix.

    the same over here, no way to bind Yaw Left to the mouse. I've tried pretty much everything. It works with normal keyboard binding but not with the mouse. I assigned it to the Y-axle, just for test, and it still does not work. Have tried to bind it in BF4-Settings-Editor also... no luck...

    any help is appreciated

  • Yes I have used the BF4 settings editor,was beginning to wondfer if this little app was the problem,assume I need to uninstall it and then re-set everything in the BF4 settings menu ?

    I have the same problem with BF4 since day 1 and I have only changed the key bindings in settings. They need to fix this as I am unable to fly jets. Haven't played with jets since the release for this reason and I am sure they know this I mean cmon...
