Hi, new to rc, want to use my new DX6e transmitter w/WS2000 dongle in RFTrainer Edition on Steam, Windows 10, fully updated.
Binds to dongle, launch game, it won't, says it can't see controller. Can't work in game to add controller, etc because it won't launch without it seen.
Very frustrated. Getting ready to ask for refunds and move on.

The first thing to try is to go into the Win10 settings and add the WS2000 as a usb device. It should eventually show up as a usb gamepad.
Click "START" then click the little gear (settings) and then go into "Devices"; try looking under 'other devices'.

PS edit: you may need to update your usb drivers.

All USB's are updated. WS2000 powers, will blink and bind, etc...
Won't add in Device settings, other or any. Doesn't show up in Device Manager. As if it doesn't load a driver at all.

Lol, unbelievable! After many attempts it randomly popped up as Spektrum Receiver... Thanks for you response.

Yeah, you can thank Windows 10 for 'that' little glitch. Thinking back on it, it took a couple of 'cycles' of plugging and unplugging before mine was recognized also...

From time to time, look at the device manager in Windows. It can be messed up and needs to be pruned and recreated. Plugging and Unplugging usually results in a mess.
