Hello,
What I'm trying to do is create a percentage of deflection for each axis. I'm using this percentage to calculate a number between -1..1 to send to another system that is setup to receive values between -1..1
What are the min/max ranges of deflection for each axis?
just to clarify, say I push the control all the way forward that should read a +500 (arbitrary value for clarification), and if I pull it all the way backward it should read -500.
Just looking for the values, thanks!

Hi Nick,
The device itself will not generate anything larger than -512/+511, but there could very easily be other software in place below you that will change those max/min values. You need to clip the values if you need them clipped.
You should look at the HID descriptor of the device to see the range. That isn't terribly accurate at the moment, but will be precisely accurate in the future. Still, other software can be put in place between you and the hardware. That can change the range.
