VKB-SIM

Hi,

The twist axis suddenly stopped working. I've reset to defaults, nothing happens on the axis test when I twist the grip.

It's the third issue I'm having with the MCGU since I got it last thursday, did I get a lemon?

Ok, there are communication errors when I'm twisting back and forth, so there must be an issue with the cables in the twist adapter, or something else.

Open Test - Misc tab and press Check MARS button.

Thanks, here is the result. Does that mean that the grip is faulty?

I don’t know if it’s related but sometimes both leds on the grip would turn white for a short time.

Try to reinstall the grip. May be communication errors cause problems.

Same… still red error on MaRS #7

You are using beta firmware. We know about this bug and will soon be releasing an updated version.
But now you can use an official stable firmware for MCG-U http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/Firmware/BlackBo ... 2_02_0.zip
P.S. Don't forget reset to default and calibrate the joystick after updating the firmware.

It's a pedals port. Of course you can see errors on MaRS #7 because the Blackbox can not connect to the T-Rudder MaRS sensor.

As I’m away from home I’ll try this next Sunday. Thank you for the info, I hope it’s just a software problem

Please change to this firmware and hit Default button in VKBDevCfg

The firmware you used may have configuration error so the twist won't work.
Try this one: https://vkbcontrollers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/v2_02_52.zip

Hi,

Downgrading to latest stable firmware (2.025) resolved the issue.

Thanks for the heads up! I will now edit my original message and remove the complaints that were unwarranted in retrospect

Please wait a little. The new FW is under making.
