No, if he has CHCM installed he still has to calibrate in Windows and CHCM does not disable the Windows calibration.  If he has a map loaded, he may have to turn on DX mode in CHCM in order to calibrate in Windows.  He can use CHCM to access the Window's calibration routine by selecting the calibration function within CHCM but as I said, depending how he programmed his map template, he may need to turn on DX mode to calibrate and then turn it back off after he's done so his map will work properly in game.

Yes I think I was using 4.13 (I have forgotten actually) and I believe a recent Windows update caused my system to lose the throttle setting (only) where it would not hold calibration and just using the throttle could cause all of the CH gear to shutoff for a moment. I thought it was a bad potentiometer (even though its only been about 8 years) so I replaced it. It was not the potentiometer but upgrading the CHCM fixed it.

Is it losing calibration in Windows?  If you calibrate it in Windows, does the problem clear up?

No, it loses calibration in game. However, I was reading some stuff in CH Hanger that may address the issue. It seems you should leave the sensitivity at 100%. Mine is less. I will give that a shot tonight.

Where did you change your sensitivity settings?

When I do change them, it will be in calibration mode under the 4.2 version of CH Control Manager.

I have yet to play this camp. I read in the CH Hanger that for a game to realize the full sensitivity you have to have them at 100% then do any adjustments in the game. Worth a shot.

Preliminary findings is that the above seemed to work.

You must have changed that yourself then. Mine has always been at 100% as far as I know. Is there a reason you changed the sensitivity?

Yes I did out of ignorance I think. Flew tonight and no issues whatsoever. Additionally, I knocked everything out of the sky within my reach. Was awesome night. But I have to tell you, my wingies cleared my 6 more than once.
