TPOD TDC Press creates Markpoint as flyover, not from TPOD cue

[eFirehawk]

Hi everyone,

I'm having this intermittent issue where the TPOD sometimes does the correct thing, which is, as long as MARK is selected in the MFD instead of TGT, etc it creates a markpoint based on where the TPOD is looking at. However, sometimes even though I follow the exact same procedure, once I do a TDC press it creates the markpoint based on where the plane is instead, as if I would've pressed the MARK button on the UFC.

Apparently what seems to cause it in my case are possible micro-movements of the TDC. I use a TM Warthog and it has the stupid 'nipple' type of TDC axis and press, so sometimes the TPOD moves slightly when I press the TDC, thereby creating the flyover points. It's hard to not move 'touch' the axis at all while pressing the TDC, although when I do 'perfect' presses without moving the axis at all it seems to behave correctly most of the time.

Is this a bug or as intended?

Try setting a large dead zone for X and Y axis. That should help when you press the nipple and should reduce any unintended slewing.
