Hi. Just looking for a bit of info regarding calibration of a controller via usb. I have a Betafpv Literadio 2 controller that shows up as a (Beta FPV Taranis joystick)  in the game controller section of my pc, but the sticks are all out of whack (in Freerider calibration I get semi smooth response from 2 directions on each stick, but the opposite 2 directions on each stick go straight to max input from the opposite direction (when ever you go past centre position) if that makes sense at all...). Had a look to see what I am getting in windows - game controllers> properties> test area. Left stick is giving me Z Axis & X Rotation input, right stick is giving me X Axis & Y Axis input. Are these the correct inputs or do I need to remap somehow?Thanks in advance.

Hi, from what you describe it sounds like you need to set up the endpoints on your radio.

I am not familiar with the Betafpv Literadio 2, but the issue sounds similar to what some Taranis users are experiencing (depending on what firmware version the Taranis is running).

In the case of the Taranis, the endpoints sometimes needs to be set up so that the range is from 0 to +100 (instead of -100 to +100)

It is described in this document: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwSDHIR7yDwSOGhPMTFyWEpDVWM/view?usp=sharing

There is also some youtube videos that shows how to do it on the Taranis, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlR5eqm1aKE

Also, if the automatic stick detection gets it wrong during calibration in Freerider you can manually click the circle that you see is the correct one (instead of clicking 'OK')

Hope you can use a similar method on your radio to get the calibration to work correctly!

Thanks for the fast reply. I think you are right. The range is currently - 100 to +100 (instead of 0 to 100). I have installed open tx 2.3.6 and can see those ranges in action when the sticks are moved but I can't figure out where to change the range to 0-100. Anyone have any info on this? Is that doc you sent me pictures of screen areas in open tx, or are they pics of adjustments made directly on the controller (as the Radiolite 2 does not have a screen...). Thanks again.

I found this manual for the BetaFPV Literadio 2:

http://support.betafpv.com/support/solutions/articles/27000061283-manual-for-literadio-2-radio-transmitter

However it doesn't mention anything about whether any setup adjustments is possible regarding the endpoints. My suggestion would be to contact BetaFPV directly and ask them if/how you can change the settings.

(FPV Freerider can only read what is coming in through the input manager. The input is shown as the little circles above the OK button as you go through calibration in Freerider. Ideally you should be able to move the little circles smoothly up and down between the lines on the left which marks the max/min value.) 

(And yes, the pictures in the document I sent in the earlier reply is from what is seen directly on the screen of the transmitter itself, in this case a Taranis X9D).
