No. it aint me not being able to fly an approach. It doesn’t matter how I set up the finals turn on MS FS (98) I always finish up displaced to the right and its beginning to drive me bonkers. OK Cheap joy/throttle thinggy but mega powerful IBM PC with lots of those gigawotsits to spare so it aint the computer operating near Vne. Help…..

You need to be a little more specific also, when you say you end up displaced to the right is this on every approach you do? Or a specific airport? Do you always approach the Localiser from the right or left? Does it recapture the centreline as it settles down? How many degrees intercept are you giving yourself?

Airfield not an issue and the stick seems to calibrate OK, always careful on set up and never ask the localiser captures to excede angular limits. Left and right hand matters not its always look ahread and land 50′ to the right of the centreline. It is particularly noticable on circuit bashing. I can fly the downwind/baseleg keeping the runway in sight by Num Lock 4. Finals turn however ALWAYS finishes up sharply right of centreline even when I KNOW I’ve rolled out on the nose

I had a similar problem because my joystick was out and would not re calibrate.
New stick cured that
