Winwing Orion 2 built in dead spot?

[Monkman911]

I ran an original Orion for over a year and decided to upgrade to the Orion 2 since I can customize it with cams, springs and dampers. After getting it set up and flying for a few hours I noticed that there is a dead spot for the x and y axis. I do not have a dead spot set in either the DCS axis tune or the Simapp. I am also using the 18 cm extension on it's lowest setting which places the top of the grip at 13 inches from the top of the base. I can move the grip in any direction at least a 1/2 inch before it registers any movement. With my previous Orion and same extension the slightest move would register. The latest firmware has been installed. Bad Hall sensor?

Thank you in advance for any insight!

Use the SimAppPro software. 

• The Test Tab shows the status of all buttons and axis for your Orion 2 Base and Grip.
• There is a Dead zone setting for the Orion 2 Base.

Think you must calibrate the new axis at simapp before starting tuning dead zones.

If you haven't calibrated the new axis base,you  will find some troubles.....

Thanks for the replies! When I set up the Orion 2 I did calibrate it and there is no dead zone set in Simapp. I plugged the old Orion back in and it works fine. Time to do a ticket with Winwing

I've had the same problem since I installed the stick extension.  Were you able to fix the problem?

Hi Boon086,

I was able to fix the problem by going into SimApp Pro, click on the dead zone settings and uncheck the "default" boxes. For some reason "default" has a huge dead zone built in to it.

Hi Monkman911

Thank for the reply. 

I'll test it out and hope it works
