Joystick working backwards?

[Ah_dammit]

Hi guys,

Complete novice here.

I have just received my joystick, a Thrustmaster T16000 FCS 

On the Y axis, it works backwards, if I pull back, the plane dives and vice versa.

Does anyone have advice for a computer simpleton?

I can't figure out what to do in the Target software.

Thanks

John

No need to use external software - you can reverse any axis in-game. Find the axis in settings, then find 'invert' with the mouse and click it:

 

And welcome to the forums.

Andy, Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

I really don't know what I'm doing here, lol.

The welcome is much appreciated too.

Ok, thanks to Andy, I have that figured out.

However, no matter what I do, I cannot get the pilot view to work properly.

Looking side to side, no problem, but up and down is backwards.

 

Even using invert, it stays the same, push forward to look up and back to look down.

It's driving me nuts!!!

Any advice please?

I use TrackIR, so haven't had to look into view settings much, though they can be a bit confusing. Some of them are in the 'Camera controls' menu, and some are in 'Pilot head control', and I'm not sure which one you need to set.

With joystick POV HAT or with mouse?

 

If is with POV HAT in Controls > Pilot Head invert the assignments for "Move pilot head up"with "Move pilot head up".

 

if is with mouse (less probably), look if is possible invert movement for "Bow pilot head vertically".
