CLS-E-NG Yoke Incorrect Elevator Deflection at max forward

[bigSoonerTune]

I’ve been running the CLS-E-NG Yoke and Rudder pedals in MSFS2020 for a long time with no real issue. Last week I decided to add some new USB ports to load balance other devices I was adding. I also update CLS2Sim from 5.7 to 5.7.37 since I hadn’t updated in a long time. Well, when I did, something stopped working correctly. Pitch on my yoke works just fine when pulling backward – Elevator deflects upward like it is supposed to. Pitch on my yoke pushing forward works fine – Elevator deflects downward like it is supposed to – right up until I get to almost full forward – and then at the last second the Elevator decides it will instantly switch from full downward deflection to full upward deflection. If you have the yoke pulled forward by elevator weight feature on, this will cause you to go into an instant maximum climb angle rotation at 40knots. Otherwise, when you fly along you’ll try and pitch down aggressively, and then all the sudden jolt into a max climb.

WTH? Did y’all put some MCAS software into the last release? Anyone else had this issue? I didn’t even change profiles, just moved the USB port and tried to keep my software update to date. I did trying going back to 5.7 and that did not fix the problem.

Huh, looks like something with my copied profile (copy of one that I downloaded from ProfileCloud) got messed up when I did the 5.3.37 update. I went back to the original profile from PC and everything worked fine. That’s an ugly bug if that is what happened, cause that could take a guy a LONG time to figure out.
