[Bug 1553344] [NEW] Speedlink joystick throttle problem

 

Public bug reported:

Speedlink joystick -Phantom Hawk is working well otherwise, but the
throttle wont 'lock' to a certain positions, in contrary it always
returns to middle position.

When testing with jstest, it seems that the throttle "axis" gives
constant zero degree input. Changing the position of throttle will give
a new input for that position, but after a split second it will get back
to zero (degree). Problem is not in hardware as I tested it on windows.

Problem is similar to this youtube video (not mine, but I took the rights to share it):
