Unhappy Need help using Cyborg FLY 9 Wireless Flight Stick

Would appreciate advice on what additional steps are needed to use the Cyborg after syncing it to the Xbox 360 console. The Cyborg will turn on the console and start BOP but the flight stick will not let you select from the Main Menu (ie Single Player) to start the Campaign. I have used the XBox 360 controller to start the Campaign in hopes that the Cyborg Flight Stick would then work. But after pressing Start or pulling the trigger, the Stick simply does not operate. Madcatz Support was of no help, the Support guy was not familiar with BOP and only suggested the possibility of enabling the Stick in the software setup??? Are there any Cyborg FLY 9 wireless users that can help a beginner use the stick?

I have the FLY 9 with Xbox. There is a conflict if you connect an Xbox controller as it will disable the FLY9. Only use and start the Xbox with the FLY 9 connected, I had to reboot if I connected the Xbox controller at any time. Other than I had no problems. The trigger acts as the A button for selection of menu options and the D pad for scrolling.

You are probably aware but make sure your selector switch is in the correct position for BOP and normal Xbox use and not for PC use/Ace Combat.

Unfortunately I cannot test the exact switch functions for selecting menu options as I rebuilt mine to use the internals from my AV8R (I got fed up with changing or re-charging batteries due to lack of organisational skills on my part ...).

Other than that it has been very durable and reliable except for a manufacturing problem regards the wiring to the twist rudder which keep parting company. Many people had this problem and it can be easily cured with a simpe re-routing of the wires. Not sure if Madcatz ever changed the way the wires were routed and anchored to prevent this, never had any further problems since I did mine.

Thanks for replying. I have unplugged the Xbox 360 console HDMI and power cables, and paired the Cyborg FLY 9 numerous times and it still will not work to select "Single Player" from the BOP Main Menu. Also ensured that the Mode switch was on number 1. All of this without success. Some other users from other forums have indicated that they have had some wiring issues. So I am about to conclude that maybe the wiring to the trigger may be faulty. I sent an email yesterday to Madcatz support outlining the problem and received a reply that they will get the problem worked out. I just bought the unit on June 13th so it is under warranty. Again thanks for replying.

Na, he's ok. Probably didn't realise his post would be seen as trolling. I do find it hard not to be baited into a flame war. Trollism and Fanboyism makes me want to attack lol.

Branko is the one who is not welcome

You asked for it and now you have it{Flames} I have helped many people on PS3 with many of there problems{Flames} Xbox is iffy! Why you ask? Well have they gotten a patch?{Flames} no right? Why you ask? {Really in FLAMES} they ask for too much money!{Flames} I support systems that support me i still have my 360 but do not use it for this reason. how would you feel if you had a ps3 and a game that needed patching, yet no patch came because of cost? O yeah {Flames}<--- were is your advice? you just want attention : ( so you try and pick a fight {Flames} O yeah {Flames}!

And don't bad mouth other Players here! we are all welcome as long as we follow host rules. Br never gave me a problem on any game type. Br stick to strike most of the time. BR is good at what she does no problem with that I like to invite her for TDM her vs 3-4 f190 D9 its good fun. You seem to like to start fights, and must have been picked on a lot in your early years. Stop being a Keyboard warrior and start being a decent person!
