My floating spaceship(Character Controller) won't move in x direction, but it does move in y direction.

And this is a script i am using:

var speed : float = 6.0;

private var moveDirection : Vector3 = Vector3.zero;

function Update() {
        var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
        moveDirection = Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"),Input.GetAxis("Vertical"),0);
        //Debug.Log("Horizontal");
        //Debug.Log(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"));
        //Debug.Log("Vertical");
        //Debug.Log(Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
        moveDirection *= speed;
        //Debug.Log(moveDirection);
        controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
}

Also if i use the construct below it moves perfectly along the y and z axis. It seems as only x axis is the problem.

    moveDirection = Vector3(0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical"),Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"));

I finally figured out what was the problem. My Character Controller object was a cube which had both cube collider and Character Controllers capsule collider components. So the Character Controllers capsule collider was constrained by the cube collider on the x axis. After i removed the cube collider from the object everything worked just fine.
