Hey,

Just downloaded Freerider but I'm having a problem setting it up with my Taranis X7 (which is connected via usb).

The controller is simply not showing up whatsoever (i.e. nothing at all happens, even when I try to callibrate). It does work on both the hotprops and DRL simulators so I'm not sure what the problem could be. I have also gone through the setup video in teh jope a new model would work but this hasn't helped either.

Any insights/advice much appreciated :)

edit: it's windows 10. I have also tried removing 3dconnexion mouse, as well as changining to differeny usb ports on the pc.

update: when I 'centre all sticks' I can see the white dots underneath changing, so it seems like the program recognizes the controller somehow. However still when I calibrate trim, or try to fly there' just nothing :|

If you are able to move the little white circles on the calibration screen smoothly up and down, that's a sign that it's working.

If the automatic stick detection gets it wrong, you can click on the circle that you see is the correct one (instead of clicking "ok").

When you get to the trim screen, you will be able to see if the stick movement is recognized correctly.

And, in case you haven't seen it here's a document describing how you need to setup the Taranis for it to work correctly on Windows:
