Thrustmaster Utilities and Updates

Download the update for PII download problems by clicking HERE. Check out Thrustmasters site for other software which includes updates of their programming utilities and MUCH more. Advanced users can even learn how to do boolean related programming; if you have the time, you can make your stick dance and sing. Check out Fox 2, James Hallows new programming utility if CH Commander has you confused. This is a text based editor of about 4.25 meg.

However, even more useful are some of their simple utilities. For example, my F22 drifted to the right constantly in the F22: ADF beta. I downloaded TMs joystick applet for WIN95 (ProPanel), calibrated again and voila! No more drifting!

It doesn't seem to be commonly known that the F22 and TQS contain memory chips that also need upgrading on occasion. If you attempt to download a file to your stick and get errors there are two possibilities: the file contains real errors that need correction, or: you need to update your hardware! TM offers free updates if your chip is not the latest version. For the F22 the latest version is 1.17.

If you have managed to lose your install disk and need the original TM software, here are a few files:
