Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas 4 - will not map inputs

Hey all,

Windows 10 21H2 playing on Origin client.
Game Controllers in Win10 show a Virtual Hid Device (first) as well as the T.Flight Hotas 4

Latest Drivers and Control Panel for T.Flight installed. I am able to see all the inputs activate in the Control Panel for the Joystick.  So I now that Windows is seeing it.

When in Game and go to Joystick, I usually start with Weapons, the unputs (Fire button say) will not Map.
In the background I see 'the game' looks like it's 'seeing' a Controller (I see "RB LB" come up for a sec in thebackground)
After trying to map a button the game then does not allow me to back out fo the menu.  It's like it's not taking my Keyboard input anymore.  I have to close the game by Task manager and restart

I'm a seasoned PC user and IT person.  Don't be afraid to get technical with me LoL.

Thank you in advance

  • Try going into your "controller" settings in game > Controller Schemes >  aircraft and helicopter and set them to "Custom"? 
    I'm using a Logitech extreme 3D pro joystick for flying and thats what i had to do.

    Nope.
    Even after doing that When I try to map buttons (in the Joystick section) it still looks like it's displaying Controller buttons (in thebackground) and doesn't actally map anything.
    Then I can't click on anything with my KB and I have to kill the game in Task Manager

    Pretty Basic Redragon S107

    Oh and a Nostromo n52 TE on the side.
    I did disable an additional 'controller' that the Belkin (legacy) software installed but no change.

    I'll take a look but...
    I think this is assuming I'm using teh Razer Syapse software/Drivers.  I am not.  I'm using the older Belkin Sw.
    Could be the same or similar issue so I'll look at the thread

    I appreciate the assist
