Hello,
Does anyone on this forum use Logitech Wingman Rumble Pad (with analog sticks)? Coz I have a question.. I am used to playing driving games on a Microsoft Sidewinder as far as PC games are concerened.. And till now all games I played on PC were mostly Arcadey. Now that more and more Sim Racing Games are coming on to PC I bought a new Wingman RumblePad from Logitech, which has Analog Stick, so I have more control over my Car round the corners than with SideWinder. And most of the time I am on my Laptop coz I have to travel a lot due to work, so cant carry around a Steering Wheel everywhere I go..
BUT!!!!, This game pad really really sucks. I mean when I try to caliberate it, the X and Y Axis wont stay on 0 if u know what I mean.. It just constantly is moving even while I dont touch the Analog Stick! So while racing, the Car is either turning left or right .. OR left and right even while going straight (thats even without really touching the analog stick).. Same goes with the Accelerator / Brake stick, If I leave the Accelerator it starts braking by itself.. This is really annoying.
And the worst part is the D-Pad and the buttons arent as good as a Sidewinder either. And I sold it to a friend. So I am stuck with this stupid GamePad.
Does anyone else have such a problem? Can you Help Please!!!

hey dude, i have the same pad and i have the same problem. i dont even bother playing racing games with the pad , i bought it strictly for sports games(nhl 2004 specifically). i still use the sidewinder pad as well, it works until i shell out for a thrustmaster Ferrari wheel 8) so unfortunately i dont know how to help u fix ther problem, i used to unplug the gamepad, and put it back in but it was only a temporary fix till it fucked up again.
