After installing LOCK on: Flaming cliffs and having a quick test of the game I noticed very slow delayed roll performance from my
HOTAS Cougar. I then tried il2 1946 and noticed the stick wasn’t responding at all
I opened Foxy and tried to upload the profile for il2 and received an “ERROR 1008: Device error” cougar not communicating or not connected.
I uninstalled the cougar software and reinstalled it with a view to flashing the device. The software installed but when I attempted to flash it I received an error message of “device not recognised, not connected or not installed properly”.
I have tried this in a different USB port by swapping over my
Saitek Pro rudders into the cougars port and vice versa and get the same results. I installed in my second machine and it is still unrecognised so it looks like a problem with the stick.
If I go to the
HOTAS Control Panel I receive device detection error “E8 please ensure it is connected and worked properly”
I noticed this morning when I booted my PC it came up with a message the cougar had no firmware but when i tried to flash I got the device not recognised error.
The cougar is about 6 years old.
Any help appreciated.
