VKB-SIM

same here. seems to firmware is faulty. upgraded the mk2 gunfighter joystick to 2.00.7 and nothing worked.

now i have gone back to 1.98.1 and it works again.

would be appreciated if they fix it.

hi,

i want to change the joystick so it needs more force to move it. do i just have the change the springs or do i also need to change the cams?

also: what springs and cams come preinstalled with the mk3 base?

any recommendations on springs/cams for games like elite: dangerous?

thanks.

thanks

hi,

after having used the stick for ~50h the z axis isnt as smooth as it was at the beginning so i thought about greasing it up.

has anyone tried it? what grease did you use? is there any "how-to" or video that shows how and what you have to grease up.

thanks.

ok, thanks. its just off by very few numbers so its not a big problem.

If it's properly calibrated the Gladiator should get a perfect center return on all axes. I see that you reported your grip being 'sloppy' a while ago so I would suggest opening it up to see what's going on with the internals, maybe a wire is getting caught up in the springs and impedes the free mo...

thanks, i will look into it later

edit: @rtrski you were right

the problem is to get it out of neutral. the first few mm of movement to the left or right is a bit heavy.
thats why i increased the z axis deadzone a little.

the weirdest part of it all is that when im at a space station or in a menu the game recognizes the mini stick and the hat as different inputs but as soon as im flying/ driving around it thinks the hat= ministick and viceversa.

the trick with the z axis is to not push down when you want to twist but slightly lift up. goes really smooth then.

hi, i also just bought a mk3 with the space grip pro and play e:d. mine is really sensitiv. very little movement of the stick and it reacts. i even had to increase the deadzones because it would react even with the smallest joystick movement. have you calibrated it at first before using it? is there...

Hey, Generally, from my experience I can say the vkb twist might be a bit sticky...I'm going to regrease mine this weekend, but before you push yourself to do the same, check whether the tightening piece is retracted in the grip correctly, like in the attached photo. One time I put it together and ...

i have a small problem. in play elite dangerous and the game seems to think that the analog ministick is the same as one of the hat switch (bottom one). now i checked in windows (joy.cpl) and everything seems fine. the hat switch is assigned to 5 different buttons (including the center push) and the...

are there any plans for a vkb throttle?

thanks. do you know which springs come out of the box with the mk3?
