Re: How to update firmware
1) Download the following (links found via https://vkbcontrollers.com/?page_id=4609)
-- VKBDevCFG-C - http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/Programms/VKBDev ... 83_8_5.zip
-- ZBootloader-C - http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/Programms/ZBootloader-C.zip
2) Extract both to the same folder
3) Open VKBDevCfg-C, select device and click Bootloader.
-- That should launch ZBootloader-C
4) Select previously downloaded firmware, and hit flash it.
Quick note: I have a single joystick plugged in and am unsure if it is possible to bypass the VKBDevCfg-C in this process. This just happens to be the order in which I did things, and it worked for me.

Re: How to update firmware
Thank you, didn't mean to double post I was just in rage type mode sorry lol
I have fumbled around and figured out how to update. I did take my stick apart to find the rattle, I think it was just a loose piece of plastic casing.
My firmware is up to date and the configuartor recognizes the stick. Yay.
Now my problem still persists that no other axis are shown anywhere. Every button works. But no axis on the two "hats" or break handle axis.
Nor is it recognized in any game anywhere. I've followed the calibration to the letter and I can still not get them to be recognized anywhere.
Furthermore I can't seem to find where the axis would even be represented in the configuartor. Under axis test I only have 3. X Y and Z
Is there a special setup I need to do to get these axis displayed?

Re: How to update firmware
Ran into the same issue as you once I got my buttons working, been clicking around for a bit and found a solution.
1) Download Wizzo GF - http://ftp.vkb-sim.pro/Programms/wizzo_gf_0_98.zip
2) Click "Advanced Settings" red button on bottom left
3) In popup, select "Default"
-- Selecting Default restarted the Wizzo tool for me, and the analog hats / lever started being detected both in Wizzo GF and in VKBConfig.
After setting "default," hats / lever and button 7 (black button on left side of the stick) all started being detected for me. Not sure if there is a way to do it in VKBConfig, but since this worked for me I stopped looking.
