I've been using keyboard/mouse for a looong time, but due to a RMI I've been looking into using a joystick for my left hand functions. I managed to get a lefty stick (kinda, CH Flightstick Pro) and have it set up almost perfectly for MWO except for one thing...

Analog Throttle.

For reverse, the amount of pull on the stick is just fine, I pull back about oh... halfway or less and the throttle goes full reverse. But no matter what settings I put it at the fact that MWO uses analog means to go full throttle I need to push the stick as far forward as possible, which is more wrist movement than I care to sustain for the greater part of a match. (Meaning I have to push the stick forward and hold it there as long as I want to be at full speed, which in many mechs is all the time.)

It might've been that I started poking around too late and it's something easily taken care of, but after spending an hour and a half last night it looks like the Flightstick software can't help me, and I have no idea what (if any) settings I could change in the MWO portion. I figure I'm aiming to set the Y axis (+ side) range to about 50% of what it currently is, and it'd solve my issue, being that I've no problem with the reverse analog throttle and it only requires about 50% as much deviation from center to go full reverse.

Does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance.

Edit: Incidentally, analog turn is also kinda irritating for the same reason, but I can deal with it, being that I don't normally have to hold a turn for the entirety of a match. If I could alter the X axis though I'd probably do so.
