I was using my futaba and it was working on the first freerider version. Since I installed the freerider recharged version, my controller doesnt work anymore on both version. What is going on and what should I do to fix it ? Thanks

Please help. I got my XBOX One controller connected and I can play the game, but all my controls are inverse! I go through the custom calibration and everything, but still reveresed. Is there not a way to change this in the game somewhow? It's killing me being this close to playing properly

I also have a Radiolink AT9, got the proper drivers for Windows 10, but doesn't seem to be working at all in Freerunner, any advice on how to get that setup as I would rather use my AT9 than an XBOX controller...Thanks

can someone help me get my ps3 controller to work? thanks

Hi! I would like to suggest to extend the Controller Calibration process by not only asking for moving each stick to one end but to both ends. That case the software could detect the entire working interval of each stick and automatically set Trim and Scale. I always having a hard time calibrating both my controller and FPV freerider to work good together.

So I have a Devo 7 (uses the 3.5mm audio plug), and I have a Mac. What do I need to get this connected? I'm sure I need some sort of 3.5mm audio plug to USB conversion, but not sure which one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First off, FreeRider is awesome! I have it on my tablet and have installed it on my windows 10. I can not get either of my controllers to work with the game, I have a devo-10 and a sprektrum dx6. I have tried using the usb and audio cable, I have downloaded smartpropoplus and it won't recognize either controller. I have also taken it to a computer repair shop and they couldn't get anywhere with it either.

At this point I would be happy to buy a cheap usb flight simulator controller if you can recommend one that you would know would work with windows 10 and freerider.

I'm having problems getting either of my controllers working with SmartPropoPlus/vjoy. Both appear to be working properly in Smartpropoplus, but in FPV Freerider the throttle and roll channels are ignored on the Spektrum DX9, and the roll and pitch channels are ignored on the Tactic TTX610. Anything I can try?

Hi there,

I just got the Orange DRX transmitter from hobbyking with the simulator dongle package, and cannot get it to work/recognize it for free rider. I am running the latest Mac OSX as well. Just wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to use this with fpv freerider and if not, other simulators that would work!???

cheers

Hi,

I've modified an open source project called Unojoy to interface my DEVO 7E and RX601 with my computer via an Arduino Uno board so I could play FPV Freerider using my DEVO 7E and RX601 and I've posted a how-to guide together with the source code and other references on my blog at http://wei48221.blogspot.tw/2016/06/interfacing-rc...

I believe this will work for any kind of controller + receiver as long as the receiver is using PWM signal to control the servo motor. So, you may want to give it a try if you are stuck..

If you have any comments / questions, please feel free to leave them on my blog. I would love to hear from you.

W.H.

THRO = forward 100, AILE = left 100, ELEV = 100 up (or forward, I suppose), RUDD = left 100. These will get a Spektrum

DX6I user most of the way there. You can get the rest of the way there with the DX6I basic trims (below and to the side

of each stick). I did give TRAVEL ADJ - ELEV forward 125% and back 50%.

Where do I find the above settings. ^^^^^^^^^^

FPVFreerider worked fine with my RealFlight controller under the previous version of OSX. Upgraded to El Capitan and then upgraded FPVFreerider to the Recharged version. Now the controller is not being recognized by FPVFreerider. The controller is being seen by the OS fine (InterLink Elite: Product ID: 0x0e56 Vendor ID: 0x1781 Version: 61.00 Manufacturer: GREAT PLANES Location ID: 0x00300000). I'm missing not being able to use the sim.

Hi. I got the last version of FPVFreerider and it was working ok but, suddenly, doesn't matter the direction (left or right) I move my "Roll" stick, the quad only turns to one direction (Left) and I didn't do any change on the radio or on the software or even set something different...I noticed something "wrong" in the quad, then I crashed and after that never was ok again. I'm a Taranis 9xd Plus User. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi - I have a FlySky SM600 controller on OS X and it isn't detected in FPVFreerider. Is there some magic to get this to work? Thanks!

I have an AT9 controller. When i calibrate no matter what i do both sticks will be backwards (throttle up is down on left stick, move forward is down on right stick). Instead of up on left stick for throttle and up on right stick to move forward. Do you know why that is happening?

Thanks

I'v managed to connect my DEVO 7E using Smartpropoplus and vjoy but I have now put Deviation on to the controller which supports USB connections. Looking in Windows 10 Control panel under USB game devices I can calibrate the controller and it all looks great. However when I come to play FPV freerider the calibration does not recognise the stick movements well and on the trim settings the controller sticks are all over the place (off the screen and flick to the top when the stick is moved up). Is it possible that my previous setup using Smartpropoplus have been remembered and are now interfearing with the USB setup. Is there a way to resolve this?

my taranis 9x plus only works sometimes. when i go to calibrate it doesn't do anything sometimes. when i go to check devices on windows 10 it says its connected an working fine but the game wont recognize it. sometime after closing game or restarting computer several times it will recognize it but next time i go to play it will do the same thing. i dont have any other usb devices plugged in except for keyboard and mouse. any ideas? other than that love the sim.

i have an eachine i6 controller, does it wok for this game?

I have a Devo 7 and using a USB dongle (UP02) to connect the USB to the 3.5mm socket. What am I supposed to do with the .ini file on the first page? I see no description in the manual or this thread where to put it.

Hi, I used the demo version with a logitech controller without any issues. However, now that I try to connect my Protronik PTR6A via the USB-Jack 3,5mm connector, I just get the throttle (on the second dot of the calibration page) and the pitch (on the first dot) to move. Acting on the yaw and the roll of my controller do not show anything on the screen, meaning no dots move. Something that could help solve this is hat on another simulator, the yaw was on the channel 10 and the roll on the 11th. Is there something that could help my solve my problem in the complete version ? thank you for your time. Best regards.

Hello, I just bought the dx6e of spectrum and I wish I had advice to be able to connect to Freerider. Can someone help me. Thank you all. Terry

Is there a transmitter known to work with Freerider on Android 7? I tried a few of those that I found at home, but none of them worked. The device mostly got recognized on the USB level and charging options were shown, but the HID / usbserial / whoknowswhat layer probably didn’t make it through. Some of these devices require USB mode switching (e.g. the one for my Hubsan quadcopters) and for most of them the necessary kernel modules may be simply unavailable on a default Android image. And I don’t want to root this particular phone, so I can’t dig into that too much. Is there a transmitter known to work on Android out-of-the-box? The touchscreen controls are not bad, but I miss self-centering control sticks a lot.

Just to help anyone having a problem getting controllers to work with FPVFreerider, I present my experience:

I've had a problem getting my Taranis Plus working in FPVFreerider. Basically, Windows sees the controller as a joystick device, and I can see the inputs changing the bars and so on in the Windows Joystick properties smoothly, so the controller works ok.

In FPVFreerider, the controller sticks were being seen either full off or full on, i.e. as if they were a switch. no amount of tinkering with gains of offsets helped.

However, I noticed that I also had another joystick device connected, in this case a 3DConnexion 3D Mouse, so I disabled it in device manager. Now my Taranis works flawlessly in FPVFreerider, with the controller calibration now showing the circles changing smoothly instead of either at the bottom or at the top.

I hope this helps someone else.

Hi, I'm having a bit of trouble getting my controller to work and I'm hoping for some guidance. I bought a Flysky TM912 USB controller. The game seems to recognize it, and the vertical axes on both sticks work. However, the horizontal axes are not recognized at all on the calibration page of the game. The controller works beautifully....but I can only thrust up and pitch forward and backwards...no roll or yaw. When I go to the controller settings/calibration for the device, I can see that my computer does recognize the inputs from these axes on both sticks but the game doesn't see that at all.

Hello,

First of all, thank you for this simulator. I use it on my Android smartphone.

Now I'd like to be able to use it on my PC with the transmitter of my quadcopter.

I bought a H501S from Hubsan, and I would like to know if it is possible to connect the H901A H501S-15 and if so, how to make the connection (cable and software to buy)

If not, what low-cost transmitter do you recommend?

Thanks in advance.

Thierry.

Hi

I've got Turnigy Evolution connected over USB but can't get YAW to work in fpvfreerider recharged.

Yaw works in all other sims, and is recognized in windows 10 joystick as X rotation.

The controller introduces itself to windows as HK-MT6 emulator.

Is there something I am missing?

Sry, I realy searched for a hint - but I seems to be I'm to stupid to get a flysky fs-i6 working with your simulator.

I bought this cable: http://www.banggood.com/FlySky-Data-Cable-USB-Down...

Is this wrong??

Hi there,

I have some issues with the Taranis on the mac. The Taranis both works on the FPV Freerider demo + the Recharged demo, but doesn't work on the full version of FVP Freerider itself. The stick input isn't coming through. I tried the fix from a video linked in the first post, but itjust doesn't work with the full version?!

Demo works fine but bought version crashes. Using Vista :(..... but the demo is fine.

The report window asks me to send the crash file to the developer.

how can I use tbs tango remote control to freeride..???

I have a Dynam USB RC Flight Simulator from RC TECH with integral USB Dongle. I got past the initial Calibration phase but when I got to the screen to test and tweak the trim, I got no response on the screen from the controller.

HELP!

Hi there. You say it's known that the Hobby king 6 channel DRX receiver dongle is known to be incompatible with this game but do not say why? Hobby king specifically says it "IS" compatible with FPV Freerider on their website. Can you elaborate on why it doesn't work? Everything works fine with my DX7 with the exception of the aileron channel not be recognized in the simulator. It works fine with the computer & shows fine in the windows 10 setup & calibration. However PFV Freerider doesn't show any movement when calibrating the controller within the simulator. This leads me to believe it's in the FPV freerider software & I was hoping we could work in fixing this so that users can experience sound when flying. I can use Smart Propo Plus & fly but of course that is with no sound & not experiencing the full benefit of this simulator.

Thanks for your understanding & help in resolving this. Any further details you can provide in "why' it's not compatible would be helpful.

Sincerely,

A paid FPV Freerider software owner.

Theduffysden.

A tip for Mac users updating to the latest OS X out there. I've got a Turnigy9XR w/ USB dongle connected to a MacBook Pro that worked great.

With the recent OS X 10.12 udpate though the controller no longer was recognized. I ran an SMC reset: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295 and now everything is running again. Good luck, happy flying.

Hi peeps,

just wanted to let y'all know that FPV freerider is perfectly picking up on my Turnigy Evolution transmitter. Simply a matter of connecting the micro USB cable and the game picks it up from there. in my case no calibration or any other setting up was needed. truly plug and play.

Not sure is this was already confirmed and I didn't see any mention of it anywhere so i figured i'd let people know just in case anyone is wondering about compatibility with the new Turnigy Evolution transmitter. if u own one, ur good to go.

Hi all! I need a big help!

I've already looked at various forums ... including this one: "https://itch.io/t/19817/getting-your-controller-co...

I've already watched this video: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3Fb5HLK0i0"

I've already consulted the manual as well and I did not find anything that could solve my problem ...

I am using the openTX firmware on the flysky th9x radio and to connect to the computer I am using a USB adapter

When I set up in FPV freerider, the program only recognizes 3 channels.

Please, what is the configuration should I perform on my flysky th9x radio (openTX) to work properly? I'm trying a solution for several days ... please help me!

Just wanted to chime in to confirm that the new Turnigy Evolution controller works mint with zero setup under Linux. One of the roomies will test with Windows tonight.

Running Mint 17.2. No setup required.

I bought and used your simulator on linux. It's a nice little piece of software and very handy for training! However I have the issue that it is not able to access my joystick/gamepad from '/dev/input/js2'. It is a generic standard 4 axis device that I built according to the instructions in RC Transmitter to USB Gamepad Using Arduino that allows me to connect my Spectrum DX6i Transmitter to my PC. As it is working with e.g. flightgear and other software I have to assume the joystick/gamepad handling in FPV Freerider is not able to recognize it. How can I fix that?

I have ''devo 10'' and ''eachine i6'' transmitters and succesfully use freerider full edition to my PC. On the other hand is not possible to connect my transmitters with my smartphone ''Xioami Mi5''. I search on google and youtube but nobody has the same ploblem.Any advice?

Good Afternoon: Need your assistance please.

I have the Hobby King OrangeRX DSMX/DSM2 USB Dongle
Using an Orange T-Six DSM2 Transmitter

I am trying to successfully calibrate to be able to utilize with FPV Freerider Simulator.

When I plug my dongle in as instructed on printout instructions I seem to be successful and it shows up in my Printers/Device List on my PC. Seems to me that I am binding with no issues.

However, when I go to the settings tab and try to calibrate transmitter to computer I do not seem to be getting much response at all. X-axis seems to go left and right but no other axis move when I utilize the sticks on the transmitter.

I have transmitter in ACRO mode is this correct?

There does not seem to be any assistance with this that I have been able to locate that advises me on my issue.

FPV Freerider opens with no issues but if I try to calibrate using that program I get no response whatsoever.

Conflict with log Phenix RC
Hello I had a calibration problem on FPVfreerider with FS-i6 and I had Phoenix RC also installed so I think there was a conflict between these 2 programs I deleted Phoenix RC and the drivers now everything works With FPV freerider perfectly!
cordially.

Hi,

any chance to play it (on MAc) with the RC of my DJI Phantom 3?

Did not see any mention about it....

Thanks for any help,

Hello,

I'm trying to play with USB joystick. First I used a gamepad which worked fine. Then I tried to use my Thrustmaster Topgun Afterburner and I can not even calibrate it since the values jump erratically.

The joystick works fine in other games and also moves correctly in Windows' control panel tester.

When I looked more closely I think that the reason for the problem is that this joystick gives raw values in the range of -128 to 127 - that is it uses signed bytes for raw data. On the other hand my gamepad feeds axes data in the range 0 to 255 - unsigned bytes.

Then after looking again in Freerider calibration I think this is confirmed - when I move the axes in the upper halves (where supposedly they should move between 0 and 127, the sliders in the game move fine, but as soon as I move the axis in the negative half - the slider snaps to the maximum value.

It seems that freerider does not support joystick hardware which gives signed values for the axes. Is it possible to support such hardware?

Thank you!

i cant get my Mode 1 turnigy evolutioin to work, any tips? it picks up the controller but the controlls are all over the place

I have the Radiolink AT9 and have purchased this USB cable (http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-14-IN-1-REAL-FLI...).

I calibrated the control on the full version Freerider software (Mac OS) but the sticks are working only up and down (both sticks). No yaw and row.

It works on different softwares (as de DRL simulator) with same controller and cable.

Any clue what problem is this?

Thanks!

Just to tell my experience with Freerider to serve as a warning to people having the same issues.

I have a Futaba Radio (FC 18) connected to the PC ( Windows 10 64bits) through an Aerosim RC dongle.

I have not used Freerider for a long time and today I have played again. To my surprise it did not work as it did before with the Futaba-Aerosim dongle combination.

After some reading through these posts and some investigation I eventually realized that I have installed a virtual USB Joystick driver ( VJoy ) which was the cause of Freerider not reading correctly the inputs from the Futaba radio.

You can disable/uninstall Vjoy or any other virtual Joystick in Windows Device Manager to solve the issue. After disabling Vjoy everything is working as before.

Hope it be of any help.

Hey,

Just downloaded Freerider but I'm having a problem setting it up with my Taranis X7 (which is connected via usb).

The controller is simply not showing up whatsoever (i.e. nothing at all happens, even when I try to callibrate). It does work on both the hotprops and DRL simulators so I'm not sure what the problem could be. I have also gone through the setup video in teh jope a new model would work but this hasn't helped either.

Any insights/advice much appreciated :)

edit: it's windows 10. I have also tried removing 3dconnexion mouse, as well as changining to differeny usb ports on the pc.

update: when I 'centre all sticks' I can see the white dots underneath changing, so it seems like the program recognizes the controller somehow. However still when I calibrate trim, or try to fly there' just nothing :|

hi i have connected my flysky i6 and have a couple of issues. the first way i have connected is through the official flysky usb simulator cable and everything works fine nice and smooth except it doesn't pick anything to do with yaw up no movement what so ever. i know the cable works fine as i can pick everything up with the drl simulator. i have then tried to connect through mic port with the smart propoplus software and i can get everything connected and working but i get a couple of dead sections of travel on throttle and left roll. the throttle at mid point stops moving until i get get further up and then it jumps. same with roll left i move the stick to the left and it stops moving on screen until i get half way on sticks then it jumps across. aswell everything is smooth on propoplus software and also on drl simulator so i know it works fine. is there anything you can help me with or advise 

many thanks 

Adam

How about the Turnigy Evolution?
How do I get the Evolution work with FPV Freerider?

EDIT:  Turnigy Evolution works fine with FPV Freerider - it's plug and play (well, calibration makes sense ;-) )

what looks to be a new issue on OSX / macbook ...

during the calbration process and before each flight, the software sees the sticks as all at their minimum range (not centered).

To work around it during calibration, just wiggle the sticks on the first screen before clicking ok.  You will see the little circles "wake up" and go to  center position.  However where it gets annoying is you need to wiggle sticks before each takeoff.

Hi, I'd like to share a problem I encountered with my DEVO 7 on my Mac laptop.  The problem I had was during calibration, the pitch channel was not being seen but all the other channels were working correctly.  So to resolve this, I changed a couple settings on my transmitter.  The settings were noted on a thread over on the rcgroups.com forum that I'll link below.

For the connection between my laptop and the DEVO 7, I'm using the FMS USB RC Flight Sim adapter cable I bought on eBay.  It's from China, so it took a couple of weeks to get here but for $9, it's well worth the investment!

As for the transmitter settings, I created a new model under the Model menu (copied the model for my F210 and renamed it SIM). Then verify your type is set to AERO, not Heli (it did weird things to the throttle channel in my experience). Now for the actual settings under the Function menu, select EL-FL and set POSOU to + 100% and POSOD to +100.  The thread I'm referencing can be found here.  Just don't forget to go back and select your actual model when you go and fly your actual quad...you might not want to fly with those two changes!

Hello tried to setup my Futaba 18SZ to use with FPV Freerider. Bought the RC USB Flight Simulator Cable for Realflight G7 / G6 G5.5 G5 Phoenix 5.0 Flysky FS-I6 FS-TH9X FS-T6 FS-CT6B USB Dongle  but noticed that this doesnt work. Which USB dongle do you use for Futaba?

Thank you for your help.

Manuel

I have a Turnigy Evolution Transmitter and can not get it to work with FPV Freerider. When I go to the calibrate page, my controller does not move any of the little dots on the page. I do see in Control Panel that my transmitter is present, as it is called a "HK Emulator".  How do I get the Evolution to work with FPV Freerider?? Thanks, Chris

Tried it on Windows in a VirtualBox VM - worked perfectly (except of course the graphics isn't the best and is a bit laggy).

Tried it on Linux next: The throttle axis settings were switched up. Up was left, Right was down. I ran it again, problem disappeared, but the calibration was still buggy. I have managed to set the trim & scale settings manually to make it work, now it's running fine. Awesome!

Restarted the program in Linux: it forgot the calibration settings. It's messed up again, axises on the throttle are switched up again.

So questions:

1) Any way to make the Linux version save the settings?

2) How to make the Linux version display on a specific monitor? I have 4 and it always picks the one furthest away from me.

Thanks in advance. Ps. I'm heading to buy the software anyway. In the worst case I can continue to use the choppy Windows version, but hopefully you can help me to make the Linux version work properly (and not have to re-calibrate every time).

In fact the controller that I have is one that is listed at the beginning of this forum, as a controller that is supposed to work with this software: 

 6ch Flight Simulator Controller....so, what am I missing here?

I'm using a Sony PlayStation joystick on Windows 10 and some sort of converter to USB. I see Windows has recognized the USB input as a Twin USB Joystick in settings, but nothing happens at all in the calibration screen. PS: There are no lights on the joystick lighting up but the blue converter box has a light on. It really feels like there is no "power" or that the joystick is on?

Thanks in advance,

Mary

Hi,

I saw other people got my problem. I run macOS 12.10.5 and my Taranis Q X7, although being recognized by macOS and usable with other apps where you can choose which controller you want to use, is not recognized in FPV FreeRider at all. Circles don't move and I have no idea what to do. My Turnigy-i6s works fine in comparison.

Do you know what is going on? Thanks!

Hi!

Can anyone help me calibrating Taranis Q X7 for android device? I've tried to do it on numerous devices like LG G4, Nvidia Shield K1 or Philips Android TV and there's always something wrong with yaw, throttle or pitch. All the devices seem to recognize my Taranis Q X7 but its calibration sucks :( I love FPV FreeRider on my Windows 10 laptop but it would be great to use it on mobile device, so I could take it with me everywhere.  I'll be very thankful for your help :)

hey guys good afternoon,

i have a sony xperia z5 and i'm connecting my android phone with the otg cable to ps4 controller but wasn't recognized by my xperia. However, it was recognized in wireless and bluetooth, but the game not recognized the gamepad when is linked.  Maybe i'm doing something wrong or devices are not compatible. Can you give me a hand? thanks guys. Att. Nicomaster

Hi there,

first of all, thanks for this super nice game! I used it on macbooks a lot. I recently switched to a freshly installed windows 10 64 machine with the same usb dongle from before and here it goes: freerider recharged does not see the joystick input anymore.

I am using a dongle that looks exactly like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Flight-Simulator-Cable-Futaba/dp/B00DR4I4O0
(the one that is also linked in one of the support pdf files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwSDHIR7yDwSaHNwcmZuQm1NeG8/view?usp=sharing)

Now, windows 10 sees the joystick interface in the windows game controller settings (labeled as 'PPM'). Windows lets me also calibrate all axis as excpected. I also moved the PPM gamecontroller entry to index 1. Nothing helped so far.

I also tried other random generic joystick hardware, which is recognized by windows, but not by freerider recharged.

Any ideas?

Best Regards

Hi, great simulator/game :)

I just spent a couple of evenings figuring out how to get my FS-i6 radio connected to my Linux Mint 18.2 computer. Figured I could share my procedure. 

1) Aquire or DIY a trainer cable to use with the computers microphone input. (I tried a cheap USB audio dongle as well, but the resolution on the input was quite bad!)

2) I found the following branch of ppm2tx to work on my computer after installing some missing packages: https://github.com/rhwilr/txppm 

3) Connect controller, turn it on, launch ppm2tx, enjoy!

Before doing this, I already tested Freerider with my Arduino Micro hacked Esky USB controller, and it worked perfect!

Could somebody pease help. I have a futaba 6exa and have recently purchased a 4 in 1 flight simply USB cable and dongle but when I go into calibration only 1 input per stick is being recognised although it all works fine on the other included simulators. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  :)

Kudos for providing Linux support (running Fedora 27)!  Bought a cheap USB cable, plugged it in (Turnigy 9xrPro) and it worked right out of the box!

Question - every time I run Freerider I have to calibrate my controller.  Is there a way to 'save' the initial config and reload it when starting?

Hi. Ive been trying for days to get my new TaranisX9d Plus to be recognized by Freerider. Ive been through the Windows Joystick setup numerous times and its all working fine. I can use it on Velocidrone and Liftoff but no matter what  do when I load Freerider I dont even have an option of a USB Controller. The only option available is for a keyboard. I even completely removed the drivers and reloaded them. My Laptop is only a week old. Where do I go from here???? I would really like to use Freerider

I just downloaded the demo, and it's not detecting my controller. It's the linux version running on Fedora 28. My transmitter is the FlySky fs-i6x which is connected via a BetaFlight controller. I've tested the controller in Flightgear and the joystick is automatically detected there.

Are there any logfiles, or other settings which I can try to get the controller detected?

Hi! I bought the program and it starts both in ubuntu and in widows, and this is a good thing. I have two radios, one is the Devo7 and the other is the Flysky FS-I6S and of these radios I also have the original usb cables, and that's a good thing.

The problem is my ignorance in connecting and making these three things work.
I would like to run FPV Freerider on ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS and the Devo7 radio, who can help me by guiding me step by step? I am sixty years old and my brain is no longer elastic ;(

Hello is the freerider compatible with the frsky XSR-Sim USB dongle? I am trying to use it but the freerider does not detect all channels  but if I use same radio taranis qx7 with other dongle rx2sim, it works perfectly but  I want to use the new frsky XSR-Sim dongle. 

I tried in another computer and same problem.

So when you have multiple joystick controllers/drivers it doesn't let you select which you are using.  So if you arnt using the first one it detects you are screwed. (at least that's how it seems like its acting)  Any way to fix that? Controller works fine with all other sims. Thanks!

I just ordered a FlySky i6 transmitter. Will FreeRider work with this unit?

Thanks

I have flown the Freerider Simulator for almost 2 years now, but on my old computer.. (WIndows 7, I think).. I now have a new computer, WIndows 10, and am using the same FrySky controller AND dongle and cord.  It will not recognize the same controller, dongle, and cord.. Is there a NEW dongle and cord that I need to purchase?  I am trying to train other pilots, so I am steering them in your direction to buy the simulator package and hardware and log into Freerider FPV... Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Hello. Thank you for perfect simulator! I have one issue on linux. Simulator not see joystick with pid/vid 16c0:27db (Van Ooijen Technische Informatica Keyboard), with 16c0:27dc (Van Ooijen Technische Informatica Joystick) all fine. In windows and in crrcsim all works too. Is it possible to add 27db support to linux version?

Hi...my pitch channel moves this third circle, not my roll. Still wouldn't be a big deal here as I could always swap my roll and pitch channels on the Taranis. If I move my pitch up and hit OK it is saved as roll and the roll turns green; finally, when it asks for pitch. This controller is fast and long running hardware, because it has good pcb assembly and the efficient design.

can I connect my Flysky fs i6 sir... i have a ca

ble USB

Hi everyone

I just bought the simulator and tried to connect my Taranis Q X7
The radio control firmware is opentx-x7, version 2.2.3 of 2019/01/07

I did the procedure found in "Taranis Setup (PDF)", then I found this video on youtube and this one taken from the first page of this thread, but the channels of the remote control are not detected in the right way. Only 2 of 4 work correctly.

Windows correctly sees the device. Opening the property page, the slides I see move correctly in relation to what I do in the radio control

What am I doing wrong?

thank you

Hi!

I'm looking forward an affordable radio controller (I'm a beginner) which works well under linux (LinuxMint 19 'Tara'). Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

SOLUTION!!!!

The important issue is that the USB drivers are almost messed up in all the three individual ones in a PC or laptop. One solution was to connect a power usb hub or in my case my hard disk had extra slots of usb that can be accessed by the pc or laptop. Then calibrate it again and save the model. Sometimes it does not work, then while calibrating try the reverse directions of the yaw or roll or whichever is messed up and finally invert them, all these have to be done is completely new usb  not the old ones. Hope this helps.

This is for windows 10. but still try for mac as well.

I recently got an FrSky Taranis X9 Lite and i'm trying to get it to work but my windows PC isn't designating it as a controller, I've watched a bunch of videos and don't everything in them but I still cant get it to connect. 

Hey i've tried to use 3 differents xbox controllers and in fpv freerider, on the 3 controller, the right stick dont work. All the axes are stuck and in windows game controller manager everything is fine and it work fine in other games. Anyione can help me?

Hi. Just looking for a bit of info regarding calibration of a controller via usb. I have a Betafpv Literadio 2 controller that shows up as a (Beta FPV Taranis joystick)  in the game controller section of my pc, but the sticks are all out of whack (in Freerider calibration I get semi smooth response from 2 directions on each stick, but the opposite 2 directions on each stick go straight to max input from the opposite direction (when ever you go past centre position) if that makes sense at all...). Had a look to see what I am getting in windows - game controllers> properties> test area. Left stick is giving me Z Axis & X Rotation input, right stick is giving me X Axis & Y Axis input. Are these the correct inputs or do I need to remap somehow?Thanks in advance.

I just bought FPV Freerider (Windows version 2019-11-22), but my controller doesn't work properly. 

When calibrating and the sticks are in the middle, the circles are not centered, but in the bottom. Moving the sticks in the positive direction, the circles move up normally, but in the negative direction, the circles immediately jump to the top.

Could it be that FPV Freerider doesn't handle negative numbers coming from the controller correctly?

My controller is a Turnigy 9XR Pro running OpenTX 2.3.7. 

EDIT: I did a little experimentation with Unity 2017.4.40f1. Debug.Log(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")) prints out values between 1 and -1 when the throttle is between the top and middle. Then suddenly goes to 1 when below the middle point. I wonder if it's a Unity bug, since this joystick test app works fine: http://www.planetpointy.co.uk/joystick-test-application/

Hi,

have a problem with a simple USB RC "Transmitter". In WIN 10 Properties i can see action when i push the sticks. But in Freerider no action when i try to calibrate. About one year ago i had no problem with this transmitter. I already tried the WIN 10 USB Driver fix. Same result. Can somebody help me further?

Had to uninstall 2 duplicate drivers. Now it seems to work

hello my fs-i6x controller does not work the dots are not nearli centerd even after extecive tuning

I have a MacBook with an Xbox One controller connected and can't get it to function. To set this up I used the Xbox 360 Controller Driver (https://github.com/360Controller/360Controller/) and it works property in the settings. However when I run FPV Freerider, it doesn't seem to "grab" the controller for the USB option but is grabbing some other device which doesn't register any behavior during calibration. I used USB Overdrive to find and disconnect everything that might behave like a controller (which was a speaker and a mouse), and still the FPV isn't grabbing the XBox controller. Using device monitor, there is a security chip that might seem to be a controller. So not knowing what FPV is binding too makes troubleshooting this impossible. If we cannot select from a list of controller choices, would it be possible to at least display the name or path to the controller that was selected?

I have a TBS Tango 2. Demo was working fine for a week or so with the controller so I bought the full version. After installing that, the controller will not work in the full version OR the demo.  I've tried the tips in this thread. The controller is working in DRL. I also tried a PS4 controller, which also works in DRL but not in Freerider.
