Habu_69 Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 I have an old F-22 Pro HOTAS with the Stickworks digital upgrade. Any way to get it working with Windows 10/11??
Burt Posted April 10, 2022 Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) I don’t know how older that model is to the Microsoft Force Feedback 2, but when I first started here it was plug and play and DCS settings recognized it. All I had to do is bind keys.

Any way to get it working with Windows 10/11?? Windows doesn’t have support for gameport devices anymore, and all the common gameport to usb adapters are only for analog joysticks and dont work with your hotas. The Tusba company makes a pricey adapter, but it’s not for your specific device. Contact them to see if it would work with the F-22 Pro or not: https://realsimulator.com/tusba/ Edit: If you have an electronics background, you might be able to replicate what this guy has done: https://www.reddit.com/r/HotasDIY/comments/ma5ebk/thrustmaster_f16_flcs_and_tqs_upgrade_to_usb/ Edited April 10, 2022 by Rudel_chw For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
MAXsenna Posted April 10, 2022 Posted April 10, 2022 I don't remember. But I'm quite sure @rel4y had planned some USB conversion upgrade for the F-22/TQS. Ask here. Can't remember if it is available though. Like Rudel says you can get the TUSBA or search on the net for how to do it. Many have done it. I remember considering buying the Stickworks myself at the time, still have my trusty F-22/TQS, but then I went consoles and left the scene for 15 or so years. Cheers!

The only way for make F22PRO+TQS usable in actual computers is DIY: Quote If you have an electronics background, you might be able to replicate what this guy has done: https://www.reddit.com/r/HotasDIY/comments/ma5ebk/thrustmaster_f16_flcs_and_tqs_upgrade_to_usb/ 1
MAXsenna Posted April 10, 2022 Posted April 10, 2022 @Sokol1_br You are of course correct. I was thinking of the RUSBA, but at 125 Euros I would opt for the DIY too. Cheers!
