Joystick assignment does not match actual joystick function BlueROV2 QGC

Hello - After reseting parameters, my logitch joystick button actions are different to how they are set up in the Joystick Setup->Button Assignments page. For example, buttons 13 and 14 when pressed indicate the correctly on the Button Assignment. These show that they are assigned to increasing or decreasing light brightness. However, in reality, they open and close the Claw. Weirdly, it doesn’t open and close immediately, but rather takes a couple pushes to ope/close the claw so it does feel like something is wrong. The Button Assignment in QGC for opening and closing the claw is shift-9 and shift-10, and they indicate when pressed. However, these buttons on the joystick now do nothing. Any ideas what to check next? Thanks.

Hi @Paul1 ,
I would start to double check if you plugged the gripper to the right Navigator or Pixhawk channel.
Then Map the right channel to the right joystick buttons. Also be sure the PWM type is the right one (momentary or one shot?)
