Re: Dead BlackBox?

Thanks for the support Victorus. I have made all firmware upload attempts through ZBootloader. I successfully upgraded to the 12-button KG and was just getting ready to order the MCG-Pro and was flashing to the most recent production release when the LED went solid blue and died. Any help would be a...

Re: Dead BlackBox?

I'm not giving up if you aren't Ron. I'll run through it all and get back to you tomorrow.

Re: Dead BlackBox?

The video wasn't much use, but I set .ini to developer and show the result here: https://i.imgur.com/Yehh3Cu.jpg I could find no .cfg for the gunfighter like for the gladiator in the video. But as you can see, there is no data in "Settings". So I ran the newest ZBootlader and the screensho...

Re: Dead BlackBox?

OK, I ran 1.92.1 firmware with the zbootloader you gave me and screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/kqURlNg.jpg I do not have a problem upgrading to a new firmware as you mentioned. But this is the newest version that I can find on FTP: BB_GF_v1_92_1.zip 18-Jan-2018 09:42 If you will provide me a link to...

older Z-bootloader

Thanks for the reply Ron. Per your directions, I have looked through every FTP folder I can find but 1.11 is the only version of ZBootloader in them. Please provide me a link to "Z-bootloader 0.95-97" that you said I must have to load the current 1.92 firmware.

thanks,

Re: Dead BlackBox?

Hey Support!? It's been over a week for what should be a simple fix for this problem, and there has been no response from anyone other than North American sales. If I'm screwed, please at least let me know. I am not your typical dumb user. I am the "user" that found and solved the only har...

Dead BlackBox?

I was preparing to order the MCG-Pro for my early v1 Gunfighter and went to flash the BB for the KG12 as I've done a few times already but the Blackbox won't take it. It gets a few yellow bars across and BB blue light turns solid and it dies. Shows as a bare boot NJoy device with no name or version....

12 button profile for Gunfighter

Been loving flying with the Gunfighter, best stick I've ever used by far. Only drawback is the grip restrictions, so I installed the new profile while waiting for the MCG pro. Followed Rainer's instructions and the stick took them as indicated by the "No New Data" dialogue that comes up on...

Re: Poblem with Gunfighter x-axis

EDIT: Could you maybe also - for closure - redo the X and Y axis screenshots from the Joytester so we can see the difference? If you don't mind... :) Sure Raines, Here's the y-axis that is unchanged from original factory: y-axis.jpg Here's the original x-axis as came out of the box: x-axis.jpg And ...

Re: Poblem with Gunfighter x-axis

Is it too much to ask for a picture pointing to the screws you backed out? I'm waiting for my GF to arrive and was hoping to fix this quickly if I saw it too. But thanks in advance for figuring this out. I hope this works for everyone It is very easy to find. There are six small bolts on the metal ...

Re: Poblem with Gunfighter x-axis

OK, got it! And I never would have guessed the root cause, and it is understandable why VKB engineers would not have caught this, but I think that you may be getting more of these complaints coming in from this first batch of sticks. So here's the fix: Unscrew the top left of the six bolts holding d...

Re: Poblem with Gunfighter x-axis

And - another idea: Remove the clutch fully from the X axis by removing the L-shaped PCB (remove the two small screws holding it in place), pull off the PCB, remove the M3 nut holding the clutch halves together, pull out the clutch, and then don't assemble anything, just put the grip on, and test h...
