Radiomaster TX16S

[SnapShoota]

For the life of me i cant get RealFlight to recognise my new RadioMaster TX16S. Windows recognizes it as a game controller but RealFlight keeps showing an error on launch saying no controller recognized. Help would be appreciated

.. its just the ignorance of such companys like horizon and the vendor from realflight... they wouldnt see our transmitters as "full transmitter" and dont support them native.
They would sell theire very very overpriced spektrum ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ :D where you cant do only 50% of what you could get done on your openTX transmitter ... for those people, we are using "toys" or "toy transmitters from china" (theire boards came from china too -.-' but the most of them didnt know that and still believe in santa clause) ...

I think, they would that you buy a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ serial to USB interface Stick (not expansive if you buy one from ebay and not from horizon or realflight). There you have to put your master/slave connector in it to use - or you use a RX on the USB Stick and bid to, with your TX - done that for years with graupner. Now i have a jumper T18pro - with USB HID native support - but cant get up and running in all these "traditional" sims from the very old "big names" of the past years ...

My suggestion to you:

Switch away from these old ♥♥♥♥♥♥ lame comapnys and use software like accuRC, TBS velocidrone and others - they support native USB HID and often have versions on linux running too (which this traditional companys never get done with theire ♥♥♥♥♥♥ SIMS to build for linux support) - its time to go forward and show them that not the prices made quality :D quality made quality regardless of any pricing.


edit* i think, you can get it done with a xbox controller simulator which is set between input signal and output to the sim ... just a idea

OP ignore the troll.

Steam often grabs controller input for big picture mode functions, which interferes with most games and programs.

There is a sticky on this forum that addresses this too.

Make sure it is off in Steam then try it.

I had the same issue. My fix was to go into the settings and look for USB Mode under Radio Setup. The default is set to ASK. This is when you plug the controller into the computer it will as if it is a Joystick or Storage. Change the USB Mode to Joystick. Works great for me.

Instead of using USB, I prefer the use of a receiver connected to my PC so I can SIM wherever I want: https://github.com/sfjuocekr/SBUS-joystick

You can use anyone of the radior, but you have to edit your choise and setup your own radio whith sticks and knobs for each channel.
I use my TX16S, and it`s no problem.

Thanks all. I figured out that the problem was the Better_usb bug in windows, along with sorting out the controller settings in Steam intself. So now my TX16S works ok in RF9. THere are still some issues in that it doesn't read all my switches, but at least the basic functions like the gimbals work ok

Hey, Shhota I'm having a similar challenge with my radiomaster tx16s. Can you walk me through how you resolved yours?
