    Hi Pilots,

    Thanks again for flagging this issue to us. With Update 1.1, we've added the following fix for the HOTAS deadzone:

    • Added options in the menu called “Controller Global Deadzone" and "Flight Stick Global Deadzone” which will allow you to modify the deadzone individually for standard controllers and Flight Sticks

Marking this as "solved" so it's easier to find this post.

Hey, pilots!

Thanks for flagging some of the HOTAS issues to us. We have a few fixes in the works thanks to your reports, including for the deadzones, and we'll share more details as soon as we can.

@Straatford87Tom I want to ask that, because of the temper right now, that you and your team be over transparent about fixing this issue. Give us some status updates, and as soon as you can, an ETA on getting it fixed. Also - this is a really bad bug - how did it get missed?

Also note that I have stopped trying to play the game until the performance issues and HOTAS deadzones have been fixed as to not go over the 2 hour steam limit for refunds.  This really, really deflates the launch.  I know problems occur but the issues people are having indicate that this game was not play tested very well at all. 

Appreciate the fix - but please over communicate.

    Want to create a competitive space combat game \o/

    Force a 20% deadzone on joysticks <\o/>

    Me and my homies hate this deadzone.
