    The first tests i did with my new rig everything worked like it should, no problems what so ever but now Roll and pitch are switched arround.
    Tried some settings including the DIR change but nothing changes in the end, even if i leave all parameters blank in the axis assignments tab the motors still work so im lost what to try next.
    Oh almost forgot, i also tried changing the Axis1 and Axis2 within the JRK settings tab but its still switched.
    Any help or info would be appreciated.

    Edit: all forces that should move in the same direction are switched so somehow one motor is running backwards but i cant change it.

    It would help if you posted a screenshot of your settings.

    In SimTools checking or unchecking the Dir determines which way the Axis moves:

    Its fixed. I needed to reinstall simtools. For some odd reason i couldnt change anything in the axis assigment tab.
    The values did change to whatever is set them to but the motors werent responding to it.
    Even if i set all the forces to 0% the motors would still turn.
    Reinstalled everything and now it works great.
