I've just got my upgraded P.C. back.

Corsair Carbide 330R case
i5-4690 quad core cpu
motherboard- Z97-D3H
750 'gold' power supply
GTX 960 4gb graphics
8gb RAM
SSD 840 EVO 250gb
Windows 7 pro
and a rating of 7.6 windows experience index.

I have virgin broadband which is giving me just over 200 mbps download speed and between 10-15 mbps upload.
ED is running in ultra and looks fantastic.

But my new T-flight hotas stick, I can move an inch in each direction before anything happens and even then it's very 'jerky' and not smooth. Could someone explain how to solve this issue

Yes. Buy a proper Joy or HOTAS setup. T-flight is know to have no precision whatsoever.

Edit. You can try to fiddle with dead zone settings, but it won't fix inherent T-flight lack of tracking precision.

I'm at work at the mo so can't be specific, but 2 things should help- 1. Control options- make sure the deadzone slider is all the way to the left for both axis and 2. Tighten the big screw on the bottom to firm the stick up. I get a tiny bit of play before the ship moves (2-3mm at the top of the stick) but I got used to it now and it's pretty intuitive.

Hope this helps!

I also have a T-Flight and, well, it may not be the most precise out there but it's offers more than enough precision for ED.

To the OP; make sure your stick axes (plural of axis not axe) are configured correctly in the control options.

Also make sure the dead zone slider is set to the absolute zero. It seems they may be set a bit to high so the game acts on the input too late on the movement range on the stick.

I am positive I can move my ship with the slightest touch on both the stick and the throttle with dead zones set to zero.

It sounds like you have assigned each stick axis to a control direction rather than an axis - this renders the axis into a digital mode (i.e. on/off) rather than analogue.

AHA ! yes, when I first plugged in it didn't work so I assigned each direction ( what a plum ! ) so how do I fix this ?
both yaw left and yaw right are empty in the settings as too is the pitch and roll for both settings
