Axis Calibration and Sensitivity Adjustments

Axis Calibration


The RealSimGear Cirrus Yoke and Throttle have their own internal calibration routine. With this internal calibration, DO NOT calibrate the controls with the Windows Game Controller interface. Do so will cause Interference with the internal calibration and cause control issues in the simulator.

Please use only the internal calibration provided by RealSimGear.

Sensitivity Adjustments

You are free to adjust your sensitivity curves, extreme dead zones, and other axis sensitivity settings within the built in curve management of Microsoft Flight Simulator. RealSimGear controls are tested with a default sensitivity curve (flat linear profile) and no dead zones set in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
