VKB-SIM

Thanks for that tip. I did some more testing in IL2, and it appears that having the hand brake axis work as a button is actually a good thing. It makes setting up differential braking very easy. When I have no rudder input, pulling the brake axis (button) works both brakes together. When I push one ...

Zero_Thunder sent me a firmware file, _Gladiator_MCG_v1_94_B.vkb. I used that with my current configurator version. The grip now functions correctly. I was able to set it up in DCS and IL2 and it appears everything is being recognized correctly, with the possible exception of the brake axis on the M...

I am not chasing the most extreme versions. I asked you what versions I should use, from the several listed in the link you sent, and you said to use versions not listed among those links you sent. As I said, I'll try the _B version later when I get off work and am home again.

Nothing. When I click those links I get a page that says those files don't exist anymore.

Shouldn't you have the same files on both the OneDrive and the Mega pages? Only the Mega pages work for me.

Okay, in the link you posted above, there are links for firmware and software. On those Mega pages the latest firmware is 98_B, there is no 98_E listed. The latest software is 91_17, no 91_23 is listed. I can see and downloaded v1.18 of the bootloader. I have to go to work now. I will try v98.B and ...

The error may be clear to you, since this is your software, but it is not to me, and doesn't appear to have been to the other person helping in this thread. I'm not an idiot and don't appreciate being spoken to as if I am. What is idiotic is to send someone the wrong controller! And then, when that ...

That's what I thought. Nothing happens on the red POV icon when I move the Master Mode hat. On the blue icon, I see arrows move as I move around the Gate Cont hat. Do you see anything in my settings that may be causing this. I've not changed anything except I changed the setting for the blue POV hat...

I believe so, yes. I haven't changed anything there.


How does it show as an 8-way hat on the test page? As a POV like the other? Or as buttons? It doesn't show as either for me.

Sorry, I was going by the names in the config software. It just numbers them. It's the master mode hat that doesn't register as a POV or as axes in the test page of the software, and isn't recognized by either windows or the sims. In Windows, the Gate Cont hat is either both a POV hat AND X and Y Ro...

Yes, that's the one I'm using. And I do hit the Default button after flashing and before recalibrating. Then I end calibration and test. I've read the manual on POV hats, and figured out how to get the left POV (POV2) always as a POV (rather than off/on). But I cannot see how to get the top POV (POV...

Okay, I'll try that one. No, that one doesn't work at all. I think that's the firmware for when the original K12 grip was installed. That's the firmware I used to flash the grip again when I reinstalled the K12 grip. I'll try the _Gladiator_MCG_Pro_v1_98_6.vkb file. EDIT: No, that one works the same...

They sent replacement contacts and I installed the correct grip contact today. It was not difficult to install, but it did seem like a lot to ask an end-user to do to correct them sending the wrong grip. I flashed the grip with the _Gladiator_MCG_v1_98_6.vkb firmware and calibrated it (after resetti...

Service ticket opened.

Again, thanks for helping me figure this out so quickly.

This is the grip shown when selecting the correct option, which I did: Capture4.JPG They just sent the wrong grip. Okay. It happens. But I need them to pay to send this one back and send me the correct one. Thanks for your help. I may have never figured out the problem myself, although I was puzzled...

But my base clearly says Gladiator Pro Mk II on the bottom, and that's exactly what the invoice for the grip lists as the base for which I bought the grip. You can't tell me that getting the grip for the exact base listed as printed on the bottom of my base is the wrong thing to do. Capture.JPG Thes...
