Lightning module stuck at about 3lb right roll

I think my Lightning is broken: I was flying at about 4lb sensitivity on pitch and roll, and my stick suddenly deflected near fully to starboard.

Nasa and pitch assist are turned off, but if I switch to my sensitive slot (2lbs pitch and roll), the red lights flash and roll is at 100%. This happens just plugged in and shows the failure in the realsim software.

I have reburned the firmware, and tried the Windows calibration and it didn’t do any good. I think my lightning is broken, I was using a Realsim F18 stick with no extensions.

I’d prefer to not ship this all the way back to Spain, but it probably needs warranty work.

Thanks

Never mind, figured it out: if you hold the pinky button and the trigger at the same time, it’ll recenter the stick. Hold pinky, press trigger one and you’ll get beep-beep-BEEP, hit trigger two while it’s in that sequence and then let go of the stick. Should center.

Can we please get a way to turn this off? Or at least make it a more difficult button press?
