When Im not using the clamp the pitch System Works fine. Once I hooked it up though the Camera freeks out and the PItch jumps bettween -10 and -90 all the Time.

Axis values blend between their endpoints, generally set to `-1` and `1`.

You are then multiplying by `PanSpeedMultiplier`, not sure what its value is, lets say `50`

Then adding existing pitch.

- `AxisInput`(`-1`) \* `PanSpeedMultiplier`(`50`) + `CurrentPitch`(`0`) =\> `-50`

Then you are `Clamping` the value to be AT MINIMUM `-10`, and AT MAXIMUM `-90`

UE is having a hard time finding a number `-10 < x < -90`.

- `-50` can’t be greater than `-10` or less than `-90`, so which way should it clamp to?

You’ll want to change those numbers to give UE a legal range to try to clamp. Switching them would be one way.

You could also try using [Clamp Angle](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/BlueprintAPI/Math/Float/ClampAngle/index.html).
