Brand New X56 duff out the box

[Friar]

So after ordering a new stick that never turned up I ordered another one. Arrived this afternoon.

Started setting up and as soon as i installed the drivers and plug them in I get this.....

Could it be a USB low power issue Col?

[Friar]

@BluBear - dont think so. just tried it in a powered hub and got same issue. I also do not like the fact that it is jumping all over the place in the control panel at the start.

[BluBear]

Presume you've uninstalled and re-installed drivers?

[Friar]

yep

Have you tried it on your laptop? 

[Friar]

@delta7 My laptop is old and besides I need it to work on the PC. 

After putting it back in the box and was preparing to send it back today I have been convinced by the guys last night to try the calibration process, so we will see what happens with that.

I suggested this as it looks to me like a power issue so thought trying it on a laptop to see if lights still flicker on joystick or are solid if they flicker on laptop then joystick problem, if solid then your pc has an issue

I have tried the calibration this morning without success. I have now also noticed another issue with the throttle. When I move the throttle one of the rotarys goes up and down as well.

Its going back.
