Joystick

Hello All,
I am facing an issue with A5000 joystick, it does not return to 0 position modulation if I move it slowly, but if I released it, it will return to 0 position vertically, the same issue is described in that video:

Did you try zooming in to the 3rd picture of the Amazon review? It details how to calibrate the joystick.

Thanks a lot Gourockian, yes, I followed these steps, but I do not know if I have to stop moving the joystick when I hear the sound in each direction or shall I move to far left, far right, top and bottom positions.

Also the issue still there after following these steps and stop moving the joystick once I hear the sound.

The way I read it, you move the joystick to the left only until you hear the C sine wave (minimum movement) them move it to the right (maximum) until you hear the D3 sine wave, then release it to get the #3 sound. Next, you move it the minimum downwards till you get the F3 sound then maximum upwards to get the G sound. Then release it again to get the C4 sine wave sound. You should then see either "OK" or "NG" on the screen - if "NG", I would repeat the whole process untill you see "OK".

Failing that, hopefully someone on the forum with the same model can offer more help.

#3 sound

This should read "E3 sound" - it wouldn't let me edit it.
