As long as you're outside the CP when you start the sticky-jump, you're the first one of your team to enter it, and you don't leave it until it gets capped, you should get the achievement.

Use Sticky-Launcher, equip Pain-Train for faster caps, and don't leave the cap until it's turned to your team.

If you see the capture point icon at the bottom of the screen change to tell you you're capping, you're on-target. You don't have to be right in the middle, anyway in the capture zone will do.

It might be that you're not being awarded a cap if your team initiate it - try being the first person to land on the point and thus initiate it.

No idea if Sticky Jumper will count; but using a regular Sticky Launcher lets you use that weapon defensively to stop enemy contesting the point and thus helps you cap it.

It'll only count as a sticky jump if you use spacebar to jump before detonating the stickies. I think it works with any launcher, and I'm fairly sure that you have to be the first on the point and can't leave it until it is captured. Landing just has to be inside the tape marked at the edges of the Control point.

I'm having trouble with it too. I used a spacebar and crouch jumped from the sticky explosion to land on the point. I was the only person in the game, so there were no contests or other people to initiate the capture. Still did not unlock the achievement. I captured 3 points in this way.
