Can't use T-Rudder Mk IV pedals with my Gunfighter Pro...?

Postby GridiroN » Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:42

Hey,

I recently bought a gunfighter and I already own the Trudder mkIV's. The problem is they both came with their own blackbox, however, It appears im not able to use both on 1 blackbox. The Trudder blackbox only recognizes the Trudder, and the GF box only recognizes the gunfighter.

Is this a known limitation, or is my setup broken? I'd very much like not to have to use independant blackbox setups for each item...

When using one Blackbox to connect GF and Trudder, you need to download the corresponding profile. With virtual brakes or without.

Connect the pedals to GF Blackbox.
After connecting the pedals, you must recalibrate the joystick by VKBDev-Cfg software.

1 - T-Rudder MK.IV + Gunfighter base + KG12 stick
2 - VKBsim Black Box GF v1.86c Pro
3 - 10g springs, 2
4 - 10g cams
5 - (not applicable)

6 - Vkbjoytester screenshots.

Now I've got one blackbox that recognizes both the T-Rudder and the Gunfighter, but doesn't recognize any buttons on the KG12 stick, and the other box recognizes still only the Gunfighter axises but not it's buttons...

Very confusing, very complicated...My Trudder worked wonderfully out of the box, but it seems like getting VKB products to work together requires a lot of programming knowledge which I don't have, nor want to learn just to use a joystick. Had I known this, I don't know if i would have went with VKB over Virpil...

It is worth reading the manual.

After 2 days, I was finally able to figure this out myself.

The D_MARs sensor values in the profiles were disabled, the bus for the stick had a fault in it, and required a remount and the stick itself had to be recalibrated.
