Davee Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 I just looked at my old Cougar gear. Totally canibalized Joystick - major components are gone but . . . I kept the board! So, I've mounted that board in a small box and will plug in the Throttle tomorrow and then the board to the USB connection on my computer. It should work fine as I think I tested this in the past. What I don't know, is how DCS will recognize the Cougar throttle and the WH Throttle if I have them both connected at the same time. We'll see. Cheers

Cheers Might need the cougar software...….. Better solution is to get a 'TQSUSBA'. allows direct plugin of TQS, and axes have improved resolution. No software needed, PnP.

No software needed, PnP. Makes sense to upgrade. For now I'll give this a whirl and see how I feel about it. If I do upgrade, I'm going to go with rel4y's upgrade package. Cheers
Sokol1_br Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 What I don't know, is how DCS will recognize the Cougar throttle and the WH Throttle if I have them both connected at the same time. DCS (or other modern game) will recognize as individual controllers, since each has his own PID number in firmware. You will need install drivers for Windows recognize the Cougar joy (disabled)+throttle and calibrate. Just can't combine TQS and War'throttle in one virtual device because both surpass DX/Windows 8 axes limit, without exclude some axis - 2 if I count correctly.

Sokol1_br Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) What is "Relry's upgrade package"? Got a link or web page? Rel4y - the second option in this topic, leave TQS as standalone USB controller, "pnp" for Windows (use HID drivers) and 14 bits contactless sensor (automotive GMR) TLE5011 in throttle axis. Is not required permanent physical modification inside TQS, just plug the new components. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=220916 Edited October 6, 2019 by Sokol1_br
