Re: MCG Compatibility - Special Grip, or Grip Adapter?

I will have to be confirmed, but I think an upgrade kit for a Black Mamba Mk.III (cams gimbal), would be the same as the Gladiator Pro Mk.I to Mk.II 3-pins connector. So that option should interest even more users (the Cobra grip will then become obsolete though). Also, quick question: if there's an...

Re: An early look at the MCG Pro

I can barely imagine all the programming options with all those controls! Long presses, modifiers, axes sending button inputs, mode(s) selector(s), panic button with macro, mouse emulation, keyboard inputs combined with voice recognition software to trigger some audio feedback (e.g. VoiceAttack), et...

Re: Mac OS 10.12.3

It's normal the mode button does nothing as the profile you've installed only has a single mode. The hat is also not configured as a regular PoV hat with that profile (4 buttons instead). My guess is that the PoV function is not compatible with the iOS (DirectInput/Windows). I modified a profile if ...

Re: T-Link not working with VKB Mk IV T-Rudder Pedals

It's great to see you've managed to use the T-Link!
It's also fully functional with the T-Rudder Mk.II

Yes, this has to be done, and will, eventually ;)

Re: Gunfighter with twist

A twist rudder for space sims is almost mandatory. I know many space sim enthusiasts who prefer their pedals for rolling (pitch+yaw with the stick) but many more prefer using all the axes with their main hand. That's exactly why I used my Gladiator for Elite: Dangerous, and why I've never been comfo...

Re: VKB Device Config won't open

Did you try to backup your .ini file and then delete the .ini, and start the VKB DC? (it will create a new default .ini)

Re: Factory Default .CFG File for Black Mamba III ?

Check that post and the thread.
Maybe you'll find what you want. It's about the Fat Black Mamba and the modes switch.

Re: Factory Default .CFG File for Black Mamba III ?

When I load those .cfg files this is what I get when I set them on the joystick. Ah yes :( That's why I wrote that warning in my post, those profiles are for a Black Mamba and you own a Fat Black Mamba (the one with all the additional controls on the base - also sometimes called Fat Mamba ). Don't ...

Re: Factory Default .CFG File for Black Mamba III ?

It's that Default button, in the Tools tab:

There's a confirmation dialog when you hit that button, so despite the look, it won't go boom immediately ;)

Re: Factory Default .CFG File for Black Mamba III ?

Hi Scotty, I'm not sure what configuration you'd like to use in 2. I would like a .cfg File with the mod switch program having all the keys with alternate mapping to switch 1 and 2 settings . (do you mean the small 3-position switch (BVR/NAV/VIS) just below the PoV hat? That would be 3 modes.) Here ...

Yes, you can use it on your Gladiator: https://forum.il2sturmovik.ru/uploads/monthly_02_2016/post-6112-0-77256000-1455994332.jpg You'll have to remove the pin from your keychain and replace your plastic trigger. Keep in mind the metal KG-12 trigger does not have the magnet the plastic version has. A...

Re: Questions and answers

The Gunfighter gimbal should be really close to the Gladiator Pro/Black Mamba MkIII (but slightly different, improved and tougher). The comment you quoted is for the Gladiator (standard) which has that very specific "floating" center area. By default the cam-based gimbal has a really soft ...

Re: Need some support...Broken Trigger..

That's very unfortunate :( Archimedes would have enjoyed the demonstration, though. :mrgreen: The heat of battle must have been quite significant. I know I tend to squeeze harder when I'm struggling to hit my target. You should get a replacement part, it's very easy to remove the trigger and put a n...
