Justin, that looks to me like more of a software issue than a hardware 
problem.  If you're seeing the axes correctly in the joystick 
"calibration" screen in windows, then you're likely looking at some kind 
of failure or configuration problem in FSUIPC/FS

I have to agree with g. on this one.  If you are using different hardware
and the SAME problem keeps occurring, it's not the hardware.  That's a
software issue.  Either windows is porked or you FS software is.
