Black Box issue?

Postby jbunte » Mon Dec 27, 2021 14:18

I recently bought the Gunfighter MK III Pro /w twist adapter and T-Rudder pedals. I flashed the firmware for the black box during initial setup and have had no problems with it recognizing the stick. However, I plug the pedals into the same black box, the status LED light shows up that it is connected on the black box, but it does not show up in either Tlink or the VKBDevCFG-C program. If I use a second black box that came with the pedals, the pedals show up and function without issue. Is this a problem with the firmware or black box? Or is it that I am just stuck with using 2 black boxes. Either way if fine, I am just curious why they will not work together with one black box.

Firmware upgraded using _BlackBox_GF_MCG_PRO_Twist_v2_09_0.vkb
Using VKBDevCfg v0.92.17
Using T-Link v0.75

That's normal, the rudders won't show up as a different device if plugged into another joystick Black Box, they would just have to get calibrated. But, in your case, you already have the grip using 8 axes, which is Windows limitation per device (pitch, roll, twist, 2x ministicks, hand brake), so if you want to use the rudders on the same Black Box with the joystick the easiest would be to lock the twist, flash the no-twist version of firmware, plug the rudders and calibrate the whole thing the rudders will automatically replace the twist axis in this case (but again, they won't show up in device list).
