When the axis is straight down and left, we get normal values of 127 on the X and Y. This same phenomenon is occuring on the right analog axis going straight up yields 14 or 15 on the Wheel and 14/15 on the Aux going straight to the right. Going straight to the left we get the normal value of 127 on the Aux and going straight down we also get the normal value of 127 on the wheel. This is mode 2 on the Logitech Dual Action gamepad which is supported according to your manual. We have tried different modes and they yield the same results. As you can see on our Logitech Dual Action gamepad, when the analog sticks on going full up or to the right they yield only a max of 15/16 or 14/15 instead of the full 127 like normal. The joystick itself I believe is NOT defective as I have plugged it directly into the computer, loaded the drivers and it works fine in Windows. Maybe this is a newer hardware revision of the Logitech Dual Action Gamepad? Anyways our team due to this problem is switching to the Wired Xbox 360 controller. Hopefully this is a isolated problem for the Logitech Dual Action gamepad.

Have you calibrated the Chicklet? If not you will get the same results with the 360 controller. You should see a center value of 127. A full forward value from 240 to 254 and a full reverse value of 0 to 15. This is documented in the user manual. The full range of 0 - 254 may not occur. This is not an issue. There is a scaling function at the end of the user manual that can be implimented to correct for this. But what you are describing does not make any sense. You should never see a value of 127 at an extreme of travel. 127 should only be scene when the joysticks are centered. Try calibrating your Chicklet and see if this fixes the problem. You must follow the calibration procedure in its entirety including analog calibration and digital button selection. If you are still having issues contact me at mcopioli@crosstheroadelectronics.com
