Unable to stop residual RCS thrust in my spacecraft

[Zatie12]

I seem to have an issue where, when RCS is enabled, there is a constant retro RCS thrust being fired that drains away all of the RCS reserves if left unattended. It can be overridden by inputting RCS thrust commands but when no keys are held it reverts back to retro thrust.

I've tried with SAS on or off, doesn't seem to have an effect. It also doesn't affect Kerbal jetpack RCS.

It could be a mod, or a setting that I have somehow enabled. Just wondering if anyone has encountered this and knows what the cause is? Running a fairly standard set of mods for reference:

000_ClickThroughBlocker
001_ToolbarControl
666_ModuleManagerWatchDog.dll
999_KSP-Recall
999_Scale_Redist.dll

Happens to me sometimes, when I drive rover and play with physical warp, result can be some strange forces affecting your craft. I think, RCS is just trying to beat these forces. Try SAS off, timewarp a bit (5x and more, no physical warp), SAS back on, if it stops puffing.

Thanks for those suggestions. I discovered it's my joystick that was plugged in and I had it set up at one point and probably the deadzone/sensitivity wasn't quite right! Unplugged it now :-)

Hit alt-X to remove any trim settings you may have accidentally applied, and if you have a joystick make sure it is centered when not in use. Both can cause mystery steering commands.
