BRD-N USB problem.

[LLv44_Kanttori]

I have a BRD-N Base problem where Windows 11 does not recognize the USB Circuit Board (Win 10 worked well). My friend has the same base and the same problem, both bases are over 10 years old. Is this an outdated firmware issue?

I finally finished the Leningrad map and now I should have time to fly the map, but now this... have other Baur flight stick users had this same problem?

I want to get my stick fixed quickly, so is there another good quality USB PCB that you recommend? The KG13 Grip only has four buttons, but the two axes of the stick should have good resolution (32bit card?).

what is that switches on the top plate? what is the controller board inside?

also old boars had issues with USB3 as well, may be that is the issue?

Have the same Baur Stick and no issues at all in W11. I do port it through Joystick Gremlin and VJoy as I have one of the old skool throttles with too many axis and buttons. 

You could retro fit the Baur electronics with GVL stuff? It's two axis and 4 buttons in total.

Thanks fellas, the problem has been solved after I contacted Baur who works at Virpil. He sent me a new Virpil USB circuit board and hall sensors on the axes. The electronics are already in the mail and didn't cost anything! 🙂

Brilliant news. You'll have to do a tear down build up vid 🙂

Всем привет. Та же участь постигла и меня после переезда на ВИНД 11.  Уважаемые коллеги может есть у кого решение по этой же теме. Рус настольник брд не определяется в системе как на снимке ниже. Контроллер  от GVL. На старом форуме предлагалось решение установкой в  PSI E контроллера портов ЮСБ куда уже вставлялся  джойстик. Но в настоящее время все платы расширения  ЮСБ без дров на ВИН 11

Купил контроллер юсб. Накотил драйверы и BRD определился.  Только не сразу.  Несколько раз перетыкал из одного юсб в другой. Может драйверы долго определяли BRD

 

Единственное устройство у которого были драйверы на win 11

Windows doesn't recognize three of my Virpils either, but they calibrate just fine in the virpil software and are recognized in the virpil joystick tester app.  They work with no flaws in all my flight sim games, so who cares if win 11 is stupid.  

If they work OK and you have the means to calibrate them outside of windows you can ignore it.

Use Snappy Driver installer to find out mystery hardware with absent drivers.  Windows has a bad habit of not telling you exactly what the device is that's missing the driver, sometimes it's one of the other hardware devises that's the real culprit.

Thanks for your answers. The problem was solved when GVL224 sent me a new FreeJoy circuit board and new hall sensors. The stick works great again! 🙂
