@Amadeus75:
Please ignore my post if you might already know - but it is possible to convert the mini stick into DX axis.
Works great for me with windows 10.

didn’t know, can’t believe I missed that (don’t see it in any profile discussed in the forum but I’m blind at times too)
The reg file to import for anyone else
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM\VID_0738&PID_A215\Axes]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM\VID_0738&PID_A215\Axes\6]
"Attributes"=hex:01,81,00,00,05,00,24,00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM\VID_0738&PID_A215\Axes\7]

Still not the best stick in the world but it does have a tad of a min to max throw now at least.
I’m still stuck on non-DX for
- mode switch - I use it for 3 key presses
- speed break slider
In case I’m missing more stuff
bad
