View Full Version : DFP losing calibration / spiking

Just noticed that my DFP is acting up, there either seems to be some "noise" in the steering, which is causing it to "spike" and/or lose calibration.

I notice in game, the ingame wheel changes position, but my DFP wheel doesn't,, is only a matter of a few degrees, but its VERY annoying.

Any ideas how I can fix it?

Cheers

Got same problem, ingame steering wheel keeps jumping side to side when steering wheel is held still.

But isn't it just normal to recalibrate the wheel everytime you launch a game, always happened in LFS and other racing sims.

Using Logitech Wingman FF GP.

Well, I pulled the wheel apart, couldnt see much inside, I assume it's ready for the great wheel dump in the sky.............:(

If it's anything like Logitech Joysticks, then this just 'happens' and there is little you can do about it. I've had 2 Logitech joysticks break down like this on me, however my DFP and DF still work perfectly, so I don't know. :shrug:
