Not intuitive, and certainly not how the author had planned it.
Remember: you aren't the only fgfs user. And apparently it
worked for everyone but you so far. That the axis is reported
backwards on *your* machine isn't really our fault.

Just find the axis definition and swap the <low> and <high>
contents (assuming it's a digital hat).

True. I'm sure the (unpaid) documentation maintainers/writers would
accept your patches. (You are aware that we aren't a company,
aren't you?  :-)

There are lots of examples in all the joystick drivers, for example:

  <binding>
      <command>nasal</command>
      <script>controls.aileronTrim(0.75)</script>
  </binding>

Likewise for rudder and elevator.
