Hello , I got this flight system today Just curious - what prompted you to install firmware on a new product that ships with a working, good firmware version from the factory? There's usually no need to flash a brand new device that's working out of the box as it should. Firmware should only be upd...

@UIV - Can we get the latest stable Wizzo version uploaded to VKB's FTP? Thanks.

Here's a simple fix (from the FAQ at VKBcontrollers.com):

Great video! Thanks drake1984!

Generally it looks like the dry clutch is still holding the Y axis cam somehow, but I double and triple checked - the nut is completely unscrewed; it's head is sticking almost above the plate. You have to likely loosen additional screws as well; give it a go: https://i.imgur.com/pWp1ekz.png Source-...

Pinging UIV, Alex, VictorUs and AeroGator to provide some support here.

Thanks.

Here's another tidbit shared originally in the Russian IL-2 forums; still 3D printed for research and development, but a nice look at the envisioned detent solution and palm-release-plates to lift the throttle grips over these detents (yes, I say detents as there can be more than one detent installe...

Some of you might have seen this on the Russian IL-2 forums, but here it is as well for you to see in our VKB forum thread here: a very rough first 'ergonomics test' of the 3D printed TECS throttle handle (printed in one chunk for testing; the real deal will of course be the split throttle setup). A...

For the Gunfighter Mk.II, the maximum is 2x #40 (or 1x #50 and 1x #30) spring per axis. I would not recommend anything different, especially not 2x #50 springs per axis. If you desire a little more resistance closer to the center, play with the dry clutches as well (the springs provide increasing re...

Hi guys, Eagle Dynamics, maker of DCS (Digital Combat Simulator), are inquiring about the popularity of the different controller brands use in DCS to hopefully support the more popular ones with DCS default profiles, so make you voice heard. VKB is represented via the MCG and KG12 grips. Would be ni...

I've added a FAQ page to VKBcontrollers.com that I continue to update as new and useful bits of info become available to me.

Here it is: https://vkbcontrollers.com/?page_id=14365

I hope some of you find it useful.

Hi guys,

VKB released new firmware (v1_94_B) for the Gunfighter series w/ MCG/MCG PRO grip. It’s available directly from VKB’s FTP site: http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/Firmware/BlackBox/BB_GF_v1_94_B.zip.

UIV, VKB owner and chief engineer, has dropped a little sneak peek on another forum, and since it's out in the open now, here's a couple of teaser images of the VKB Kosmosima SCG (Space Combat Grip). Of course, it's also very much usable in DCS or IL-2 or other sims. Please be aware that this is not...
