Setting up my stick again, few questions

[PunishedOne]

1. What's the Dead Zone setting? What does it do?

2. I want my stick to be as precise as I want. For example, if I want to do a slow loop by pulling back slowly on the stick, I want the jet to do that. What settings affect this?

Re: Setting up my stick again, few questions

The deadzone is the center area of the joystick where no movement will be registered ingame, a large deadzone area will mean that a larger movement of the stick is required for it to register as human input in the game.
Conversly, a smaller deadzone means that even the slightest touch of the stick will cause movement in BF2.

Do not make it too small though otherwise you will discover that it becomes difficult to fly in a straight line or that the joystick becomes too "twitchy"

If you want to actually adjust the sensitivity of the stick then there is a setting ingame afaik.

Hope this helps. :)
