Stable Rocket Pitching down

[Penguinator]

I have recently encountered a rather infuriating issue with KSP. All of my rockets, no matter big or small always pitch downwards. I tried flying with and without SAS and RCS but neither seem to make a difference. I tried rotating my rocket 180 degrees so it starts off facing the other way but every time shortly after launch, it pitches down. I bought the game recently while the game was in 1.2.2. As of writing this the game is still 1.2.2 and I have not installed any mods from the time that this problem started to occur. The only mods i have installed are B9, Airplane Plus, and OPT space plane parts. Below are links to screenshots of a test Rocket to demonstrate my issue.

Look at the pitch indicator on the first screenshot. It's not in a neutral position. I don't know if it is SAS fighting to keep it stable, but it might be that you either set trim to constantly pitch up (reset with Mod (Alt on Windows) + x) or that you might have a joystick or controller attached that's not exactly calibrated.

Yes! Thank you. I unplugged the flight stick I wasn't using and the problem went away.

I'm having the same issue with nothing additional plugged in aside from a mouse and keyboard. Alt+X has no affect except to reset to pitch down. I must Alt+UpArrow and hold to neutral before each takeoff and ignore all previous orbiting or landed flights, for they will tumble. I'm running 1.2.2.1622 and didn't have this problem before v1.2.2.x. Was there some change to the control settings that I missed or is this a major bug?
