  • Same issue, beyond ridiculous that you need 3rd party apps to get the game to even see the rudders.

  • Just bought the game, VERY disappointed that it does not recognise VKB pedals, couldn't believe it! Star Citizen, FS2020 recognises them without any issues whatsoever, yet this game....

    Was really looking forward to playing in VR, guess I'll wait it out a bit. If its not fixed I'll just refund, VKB pedals are hardly an unknown product here.

    Playing the game having to use twist on the joystick when I've got perfectly decent pedals on the floor is absolutely annoying to the point of putting me off the game.

    I'm not using third party apps when all other games I play recognise them out of the box.

  • VKB Gunfighter MCG III w/Twist Adapter

    VKB T-Rudder MKIV Pedals

    Same problem. Game does not recognize pedals. No problem with all 8 axes on flight stick. Tried every tip recommended for other rudder pedals with no luck. Please fix this issue.

    Best Regards,

    I also have this problem VKBSim  rudder pedals; work in other games; not recognised

  • @rangerr103 Warthog & Virpil Pedals. Same issue. Rudder pedals aren't recognized no matter what I do - and I am loathe to install 3rd party software to fix what the game should have shipped with.

    I guess I'll wait and see - and if this isn't fixed, I may have to request a refund...
  • HOTAS Warthog and Thrustmaster Pedals.

    Pedals not recognised. So bad....

    Please fix this.

    My VKB T-Rudders were working perfectly until todays patch, then it wouldn't recognise the right pedal going down. 

    I stupidly patched my 1.9.4 vkb rudders to 2.0 and now frakking squadrons can't see them at all, but windows and every other sim can!!!!

    So unless someone knows how to downgrade the firmware, we frakked. 

  • So Lucky,

    I found a Solution.

    My Thrustmaster T-Padals are connected to the PC via an USB<->RJ45 Connector.On this connector is a little switch. You can switch between CAR and FLIGHT.
    My switch was on CAR, which is wtong for flightsims, of course.
    I switched it to flight. After that is is detected by squadrons.

    Hope that helps.

    Greetings Hotstepper
