slew broke?

Seems I've across this a long time ago, but forgot the solution:

On the ground, if I try to slew any plane, it goes off across the planet at 1000 mph. It didn't always do this, I've been able to slew in the past, but now this always happens.
 
As soon as a finished typing the above I remembered! I just bought a new set of rudder pedals, and they were assigned some slew mode action. Once I disabled all slew commands except those assigned to the joystick, all is back to normal.
 
Trying to slew with the joystick enabled is always asking for trouble.

I disable ALL axis inputs in the "Slew" mode controls menu and use the NUMPAD keys to slew.
That method is MUNCH more precise and will never 'send you across the globe' unintentionally! :)

The slightest non-zero input on an axis will cause issues in slew mode.
