CH Fighterstick Drops Out
« on: July 20, 2017, 10:38:56 PM »
After a couple of hours of flying my Fighterstick stops working. It's still listed in the AH controller menu and when I move it around the x and y axis show controller inputs and can be calibrated, but none of the control surfaces on my cartoon plane move. Any suggestions? (throwing it against the wall is not a viable option)

Need to go into your power management/power plan

You can find it in the control panel

Set your power options to high performance and then go to the drop down menu and adjust the settings to where your USB port/hub power is not controlled by Windows 7,8,10 OS

You want/need your USB PORTS to have/always have constant power

This should fix your issues, if you have already been using it with your USB ports power settings adjusted this way, then you may be having issues with your PSU or may need a powered USB hub

Hope this helps
