    Here’s a major pro tip for Xbox users: Get yourself a combo wireless keyboard/mouse that uses just one USB dongle. You can still use your Xbox controller for flight and such or even a flight stick. It make some actions so much easier to be able to use the mouse and keyboard keys for quick short cuts. Quick example, I only need press the “pause” button on my keyboard to use active pause. Walmart carries a Logitech keyboard/mouse combo with a dongle for $17 dollars. Well worth it.

After you select your arrival and destination is there a way to get rid of those big airport label boxes so I can clearly see my route? I’ve had great success using the flight assistant to fly entire routes with perfect landings using RNAV runways rather than ILS. Even in stormy weather. Thanks again for everything. I know it takes a lot of time and effort to produce these videos.

    Yeah, that yoke bug is a pain in cursor mode, so I don't go into cursor mode and just use the right stick and move the cursor dot over the buttons as it does not move the yoke. Also, under assistance options I check the Xbox Controler Sensitivity option, as it says it tweaks the sensitivity for use with controller.

Maybe your Yoke bug comes from there ?!? or you have not activate the curseur mode ?!? or i have this bug too , and i don't saw it :-) ?!?
