Re: WWII throttle not recognised
v2_12_2.zip did not have the file (_GNX_USB_Controller_v2.09.0.vkb) so I used _GNX_USB_Controller_v2_12_1_XT2.vkb instead. The ww2 throttle now shows up, and buttons 44, 45 , 46 work. but the white buttons and the 'kleiner' button do not work. should i go find the 2.09.0 file and flash to that instead?

Firmware version is good, no worries about it. Did you pressed Default button after flashing and just before calibration? Clicked Yes to the configure popup that showed up after resetting to Default?

I used the v2_12_2.zip and flashed the controller with _GNX_USB_Controller_v2_12_1_XT2.vkb there wasn't a ver 9 in there as per your instructions. The VkbDevCfg now sees the throttle as 2 axes and 3 of the 6 buttons work (44,45,46). But the 2 white buttons and the 'kleiner' button dont do anything.

Did you read my message above?
Please post a screenshot with Profile/Axes/Logical and Physical Axes and another one with the Global/External panels.

Re: WWII throttle not recognised
I am having the same issue. I followed your steps each time and flashed this device multiple times.
Is this maybe why it is not working, the version numbers here do not match? I have circled the discrepancy. I have used _GNX_USB_Controller_v2_12_1_XT2.vkb flash file each and every time with the same exact outcome. What am I missing? I have the rudder connected and the THQ is connected via USB. All other controllers and modules are disconnected.

Re: WWII throttle not recognised
@gendis19 - so you have a single THQ with GNX HIF Controller and WW2 throttle grip? What exactly is not working for you?
Re: WWII throttle not recognised
single throttle, but I just figured it out. The buttons were not working. So after some more troubleshooting I took the ww2 throttle handle off and heard something rattling inside. Opened it up and the 3 wires were pulled out of the connector and the connector and the connection receiver was pulled off of the board. All of the pins were bent.
I reattached the wires and tried to put the receiver connector on the pins. It worked a little bit, but the buttons were only working off and on. So I will have to trash this one and get a new one.
Thanks.

Re: WWII throttle not recognised
Means that something was pulling at the other end of the cable or it was stuck. You don't have to trash it, just take pictures with the damage and fill up a service ticket, they'll send you parts.
