Wolf1964 Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Hi Folks, Has anyone managed to make one of these work on a Windows 11 PC running DCS?
rob10 Posted August 9 Posted August 9 What problem are you having? That looks like it should be a pretty standard USB controller which should be no problem.

Hi Rob, yup, it should function as an emulator that you assign keys to but Windows 11 doesn't recognise it. One set of instructions said to install the software before plugging the unit in while another said to plug the unit in first...both from Logitech as a source. Neither have worked. The OS just doesn't recognise the unit.

bb5000 Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Yes, https://github.com/DCS-Skunkworks/DCSFlightpanels , it also needs DCS BIOS , https://github.com/DCS-Skunkworks/dcs-bios if you want to use DCS Bios mapping of the switches. Keyboard emulation will work without DCS Bios. If you start up DCS Flightpanels it should detect the panel. If it doesn’t, then there’s a driver issue. 1

Update on the unit too...Windows recognises when it's plugged in and removed with a sound notification but I don't know what the OS has named it.
