Joystick sensitivity problem

Hello we are two students from the Ludgercollege in The Netherlands,

we are responsable for light and sound at our school.
We are using Freestyler for a of couple months now, but faced a problem (our first because it's a great programm :fs: ).
We wanted to control our moving heads with a joystick, an old Logitech joystick, but we noticed that the sensitivity was way to high. If you touch the controller, the moving head is already touching the ceiling.
We tried to adjust this by downloading some external drivers from Logitech, but we couldn't see the difference after all.
Is there a solution to adjust this sensitivity in FreeStyler itself?
Or maybe adjust this joystick to become a speed controller?

Thanks in advance! :)

Movers are near impossible to move in this way, that's why you rarely see them used as followspots. The only production where I've seen this happen was Cats but they had to program a sequence of positions that the performers would follow.
