Mark IV pedals problem

Postby LeftySlinger » Tue Mar 16, 2021 0:57

I’m having a problem of getting my pedals to function when I have them hooked into the black box that came with my Gunfighter stick. I even calibrated it with its own separate black box and it won’t work at all. Please help, anyone....

Please be more specific. Are you trying to use the rudders plugged in other device's Black Box or with their own Black Box? First case - plug the rudders, calibrate both the device and the rudders. Second case - flash the Black Box with the rudder's firmware, reset to default and calibrate them.

So I flashed and tried to calibrate the pedals in the black box provided with the Gunfighter stick and it’s assigning the pedals to the Z axis. Which is controlling the throttle of the aircraft. It won’t control the yaw of the plane.

I have calibrated the pedals to it’s black box it came with and calibrated it to the rotational x axis. I’m going to see if it’s working in DCS....

It's a smart device, but not that smart to read your mind. If you want it to control the yaw you have to program it/ bind it in game to control the yaw.

It would, 100%.

Ok, so it works now that I have went into the game and programmed it to the game, along with recalibration of both accessories. I’m sorry for causing the frustration with you about this. I’m very new to gaming via PC, much less with DCS and that’s why I was hoping to actually talk to someone and I could’ve avoided causing you the headache. It appears to be working and I appreciate all your help.

No worries and no frustration! Glad you've got it working and don't hold back any questions, that's why this forum exists.
