VKB-SIM

I made it working again by unplugging extension from base, using a cotton stick on the contacts and calibrating the stick. Just worried to do it so often. Especially as this could wear of parts of the stick. But your point of applying a certain amount of pressure on the parts while tightening is som...

The problem is here again and calibration doenst seem to fix it. So disassemble again? Am I missing something?

Thanks! I ll try that. After rebooting PC it didnt happen so I ll keep an ey on it and I will try your solution if it happens again. Could it been that I have tried to make my gate control ministick a 4-way-switch or even better a changeable function like the master modes long press? I followed a gu...

My GF III keeps forgetting buttons 9-13 (4 way of thumb switch plus pressing it). When I reconnect USB they are back. All other buttons keep working.

Sweet! Thank you!

Dang, I thought I had replied already! Thanks for all the help. The inputs seem to work perfectly correct and just the day after I told you I get noises from inside the stick and your tipp I ad no more noises + strange friction anymore on the X/Y-Axis. So Im really happy now! Thanks again for the co...

All cleaned and assembled toghter and moving together: neu.jpg Looking good! :) Going to test if spiking and loss of button authority is gone. Some mechanical stuff before I ll test: when moving from right to left there's some friction and a crackling sound when almost complete left. Should I use ot...

on those contacts was a little bit of dirt - other than extension pads. Removed with alcohol

Here are two screenshots of moving without extension

The pins of the grip can be move slightly backwards. Used alcohol to clean the 3 contacts on top of the extension. The three screenshots show: 1. No input just before first window is full with a like (tiny spike) 2. No input continuosly after window if full and initial spike is gone 3. When moving s...

What to do? Seems like the problem was already there but since I now went from flying DCS Warbirds to DCS red cold war planes Mig19 and Mig21 I always see my brake lever flickering around - all the time. Losing pressure is one thing but the erratic movements are really annoying. Also, Buttons still ...

Here we go

Just slider 2 / brake activeted but no movement. Just X/Y movements

I highly appreciate your help :) After work I ll post Slider 2 Axis only but using only X/Y movements and no Slide 2 movements (brake). You ll see pink spikes from the brake like in my overloaded frist joy tester pic. The spikes are only generated by X/Y as I didnt touch the brake. The spikes are so...

Yep! It’s because the spiking is caused by moving X/Y which you do all the time flying. For the screenshots I didn’t move the stick because you said so
I can test rest you said tomorrow but I disconnected grip already from extension and connected it back quite tightly.
