Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

I've done this, but the problem still occurs. I am also experiencing a new problem since I upgraded the firmware on the stick. This had never happened previously. Several times during gameplay I have had the twist axis suddenly get stuck into the full-right position. During gameplay I have been able...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

After a longer play session last night I still had the phantom inputs happen a couple of times.

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

There are some scratches on the contacts, I am not sure if it qualifies as "deep gouges" though. Let me know what you think based on the picture. I tested the pins, and they are all spring loaded and seem to be working well. Cleaned everything with microfiber cloth and alcohol. The scratch...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

Okay, I've updated but unfortunately the problem is still occurring. I've also noticed recently (this was previous to the firmware update) that I'm also starting to see a few phantom inputs for button 23. This doesn't seem to be happening as often though. The handbrake and button 6 are happening muc...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

Sure, here you go.

Last night I went ahead and removed the twist adapter, reset the stick to default, and recalibrated. The issue continued to happen pretty much right away. So it doesn't appear like the twist adapter itself is at fault...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

Just to update - I reset the stick to default settings and recalibrated again. This time there seemed to be no improvement. I'm still getting random handbrake / button 6 inputs. I'm going to try to take the stick apart and reset the settings for use without the twist adapter, to see if that makes a ...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

Hello, I'm sorry to say that the issue seems to have returned after a few hours of use on the stick. Things were genuinely much better after wiping everything and re-calibrating, and it does still seem to be occurring with less frequency than it used to. I've probably put less than 20 hours of use o...

Re: VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

Thanks for that. I believe last time I tried to resolve this, I did recalibrate the device. Though, it has been quite some time since then (I haven't been playing in awhile) and I am fairly certain I did NOT hit the "Default" button before calibrating. I just completed the process you outl...

VKB Gunfighter MCG handbrake / button 3 randomly triggering

I have had this issue for quite some time and I've just sort of been dealing with it, since it's only a minor inconvenience. However I'm at the point where I'd like to get this permanently fixed. I am having an issue with my MCG where the handbreak and button 6 randomly trigger for no reason. I have...

Dammit! I should have been able to figure that out! Thank you for posting the picture. I feel very dumb now.

Re: Help! Cam rubbing against screw

I've actually done that... that was how I set it the first time. I had the washer on the outside, the spring washer on the inside. The problem was actually WORSE with that setup.

Help! Cam rubbing against screw

Need some help. I switched out the cam and springs on my Gunfighter 2 for the first time. Something has gone awry, and I am not sure what I did wrong here. I was very careful to reassemble the gimbal. What is happening is that when the X-axis is turned, it rubs against the bolt from the Y axis. I've...

Changing cams / springs in Gunfighter Mk II

Hello, I'm changing the cams and springs in my Gunfighter for the first time. I ran across something odd and wanted to post it to confirm that it's correct, and maybe hopefully inform other new VKB owners. VKB Gimbal 1.jpg In the GREEN circle you can see the Y-Axis spring and cam which I have succes...
