I just purchased Falcon 4.0: Allied Force. I'm just leraning to taxi around the airport but I'm having a hellava time steering with my Logitech Rumblepad. The steering control is the right analog up/down which is fine, but the throttle is also the right analog/left right. Once I even slightly waver into the x axis the throttle rockets and I'm smashing into a fence.

So:

1) Is there a steering control on the keyboard just for the ground?
2) Why won't the throttle control gently increases with the right analog? It seems all or nothing.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Sounds like you need to remap joystick axises in the setup, and probably run calibration so the game knows what full throttle and idle throttle are. (I'm guessing idle is centered and MAX AB is fully deflected? That'll won't be fun.
