Throttle Setting Problems

[ACE-OF-ACES]

Not sure how to discribe it..

But here goes..

I can move my throttle from MIN to MAX.. but the in-game throttle does not move from MIN to MAX

Example.. I can move my throttle from 100% down to around 60% and the in-game throttle does not move at all.. RPM do not change either.. As I move my throttle down further, around 55% the in game throttle starts to move.. I say move but really more of a jump and I see the RPM move too..

Put another way, the game is only responding to about half of my throttle movements, which in turn makes controlling the thorttle imposable, in short the in game throttle is either full on or full off, more of a WWI style blip switch than throttle..

If this was not a STEAM product I would simply un-install and re-install to see what happens.. but since it is STEAM I dont want to un-install it because the install takes about 3 hours

Anyway, anyone have any ideas?

PS it is not a Windows calibration issue.. I bring up the Windows Game Controller and the throttle works fine as far as Windows (Win7 64bit) is concerned.
