    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

Same issue here, VKB Gladiator Mk1, about 15-20% deadzone on all axis.

I know it's not an issue with my joystick. In other games, for example Elite Dangerous, letting my joystick centre on its own will sometimes still be giving 1-2% input, Elite detects this and moves the ship accordingly, even if I'm not touching it.

I can move my stick about a good half inch in all directions before Squadrons picks up any input

      No noticeable difference on my Logitech x56 after this patch. I still have to manually set the curvature to 0 in the HOTAS settings. This update did nothing for me!

        Hey folks,


        Thanks for testing! And for those where it's working now, I'm glad to hear that.

        I'll close this thread now. If you still experience issue, please create a new thread, or post in that of someone else flagging post patch issues so we can start collecting examples.
