iKyrThraad993i Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 Does the Virpil Throttle, Joystick and rudder pedals have any problems when using a Powered USB Hub? Looking to purchase a set of Virpil gear so I am wondering since I won't have enough space for all 3 products on my motherboard.
Munkwolf Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 They'd be fine, probably even unpowered. I daisy-chained 2 hubs off of another hub, all unpowered, one usb cable to computer, and got to about 10 or 11 devices (including hotas) before I started running into some issues with it.
dburne Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 As far as Virpil I am currently only running their new CM3 Throttle, and I have it plugged into a powered USB 3 Hub and it works great in that for me. I also have a VKB stick and MFG rudder pedals plugged into powered a powered hub as well with no problem.

Lucky Posted March 7, 2021 Posted March 7, 2021 No problem here either. CM3 throttle, rudder pedals and CM2 base all plugged into the same powered USB 3.0 hub.

JIGGAwest Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 i was getting a CRC16 CFG error with my CM3 throttle on a 15ft USB 3.0 extension. Added the throttle to a 3ft hub plugged into a 4ft powered hub, seemed to solve the issue.
pickafivestring Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) And just for posterity, and future searchers, I have a VKB Gunfighter, MFG Crosswind, and Virpil CM3, all plugged into a powered USB hub with 7 ports, one fast charge port, it supports USB 3.0, and they work fine. No issues. Edited May 6, 2021 by pickafivestring
Double Dutch Posted May 29, 2021 Posted May 29, 2021 I am maybe a bit out of tone, I have a sitecom powered USB hub 3.0 and it sometimes have trouble. which causes my devices not to be detected. Even when I have just one together with TrackIR installed. As a consequence every except TrackIR is now connected directly to my PC ----- Don't practise till you got it right. Practise till you don't do it wrong

I run all my devices through two ea powered 4 port USB3 Hubs with individual on/off switches for each port which I find nice. Virpil CM3 Throttle, VKB Gunfighter Pro stick, Crosswind Pedals. Works a champ.
