    Hey guys,

    I just started building my own 2 DOF sim and by following the tutorials I have managed to get good results so far, but right now I'm facing some problems.

    When I turn my potmeters by hand the motors behave exactly as expected, but I'm not getting good results when using the game engine with axis testing. Only about 5% of the times dragging the slider my motors actually move. I cannot find any kind of pattern as to when it moves and when it doesn't. When I turn the potmeters by hand, a light turns green on the monster moto, but this doesnt happen when sending the command from the game egnine.

    Might there be some kind of connection problem, or what do you guys think might be the problem?
