CybrSlydr Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) @Rudel_chw So I've read through about 15 threads about the ministick issues with DCS and apparently I'm not smart enough to figure this out. The ministick is axis 6&7. I go into DCS and the axis don't even exist as something I can select. I've downloaded Rudel's profile to the Cougar, hence why emulation button is on. Still not a selectable axis. When I calibrate, the axis values change when I move the ministick, so it's apparently functioning well. Button press works just fine too. So... What am I missing here folks? Just have the Cougar TQS plugged into the stick and the stick into the computer via USB.

CybrSlydr Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 I've since uninstalled and reinstalled the Cougar drivers, so Rudel's profile is no longer loaded on the stick. It's back to default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rel4y Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Does DCS recognize it now? I am more of a hardware guy, so I fear I cant help much with the Software side.

I am more of a hardware guy, so I fear I cant help much with the Software side.No, DCS still isn't recognizing it.Ministick appears to be working just fine, I get values when I calibrate in CCP, I just can't seem to get DCS to see it so I can assign it.Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CybrSlydr Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 Any other ideas folks?Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CybrSlydr Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 Done some more searching and I still haven't been able to get DCS to see the microstick so I can use it.Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CybrSlydr Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 Still not working. Could the issue be the USB port I'm plugging my Cougar into? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CybrSlydr Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 Holy crap - whatever I did seemed to work! DCS sees the axis now and I can use it! I loaded Rudel's profile in CCP again, I enabled emulation, and now DCS sees it! Going to dump the profile and see if it still works or if the profile did it.
