msmith301 Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 Hello, it's been a good while. I'm hoping folks are still watching this. I do have my hs kit installed in the stick and all back together. I will post a photo set and some follow up questions, but physical assembly went well. And I have a good number of the original custom springs Ian had made in Australia. I'm now moving on the the HS-1 kit install on the throttle. I did find some online photo/text/tutorial for that install. But if someone has a pointer to something that they really liked that would be helpful. My major concern now is once I have physical installs done on the Throttle and Stick - what do I use for calibration? There used to be Cougar Control Panel/CCP but not sure if that's even available anymore to bring firmware up to date and test/calibrate the pair. I did see a thread from 2013 that said it (CCP) was discontinued and didn't work past Windows10 for example. Can anyone provide a pointer to a software load/app that would allow me to calibrate the two devices? I'm on Macbook Pro, so would probably have to load a virtual Windows machine to run the software (CCP or other) unless there is now something that runs on Mac IOS? On the other hand I do have an old desktop that still runs on an old version of windows, and I think I might have CCP still loaded on it, but would need to fire it up and have a look once I'm done with the physical work. Either way would need a usb/aui adapter just to get started if I need to use the Macbook Pro. You can also go to Thrustmaster's site and download the "Target" software that's been developed for the older controllers like ours. Haven't installed it yet because DCS recognizes all of my control request so far. Don't want to sabotage myself.
rbenashverizon.net Posted May 13, 2020 Author Posted May 13, 2020 Thanks lange_666 and msmith301 will follow up. For now trying to use the resources online that I can find to complete the Cub Pilot HS upgrade kit into the throttle :-)
