cavaricooper Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 I have ordered 2 Leo Bodnar cards and am in the process of converting my serial PFC Cirrus Console II and Rudder Pedals to full USB versions. Once that happens, I THINK I will not need Pete's PFCHID module, as it will then be a compliant USB device...... is that correct? I would very much appreciate responses from those who are ACTUALLY USING Leo Bodnar cards.... I am going to install the BU8036X for the Flight Console (including yoke and TQ) and the BU8036A for the rudder pedals separately. Also, and connecting/programming advice- AGAIN- from those actually using Leo Bodnar cards. Thanks! Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once that happens, I THINK I will not need Pete's PFCHID module, as it will then be a compliant USB device...... is that correct? Yes, you are correct. Each Bodnar card will be seen in FS and FSUIPC as a separate joystick with axes and buttons which you can then assign as needed. No PFC software of mine or PFC will be needed. I use the cards for a variety of additional controls in my cockpit. If you will be assigning in FSUIPC i'd strongly advise you to use the joystick lettering options in FSUIPC to identify the joysticks. Also, I've a feeling that every Bodnar board looks identical to Windows, so it doesn't keep a unique GUID associated with the device, only with the USB port used -- so once connected and programmed take care to keep the ports unchanged (i.e. don't move them around). Of course if you are only using those two different ones this might not be a problem. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
