do i have to download a driver ?? im using vista and when i plugg it in if finds and sets the av8r up auto

or once the patches for 1946 have finished down loading will that solve the prob ???

many thanks dazz

I'm no expert, that's for sure, but I don't think the 1946 patch is going to solve your issue(s). Probably best to go into IL-2 set-up, ensure you've got the joystick actually selected and then after that, go into "controls" to map your stick to all that you want it to do (perhaps including flight controls), switches for weapons, hat for views, etc., etc.

Hope this helps,
