I have two of these which I bought two years ago. I plugged them in and they just worked. I also have other USB devices, a CH Flightstick Pro USB, two Saitek throttle quads, Saitek pedals, etc. These are all plugged into a powered USB hub.
Thursday afternoon the CH devices started disconnecting and reconnecting for no particular reason. Of course they were coming back with different IDs, I have 12 config files. Major pain.
Now I am finding that one of the CH quads is lucky and one is unlucky. The lucky one works in the sim, the unlucky one does not work in the sim if the lucky one is plugged in. If you boot the machine with just the unlucky one connected it works in the sim. Exit the sim and connect the lucky one and it works in the sim but the unlucky one is gone. The unlucky one works fine in the CH calibration utility.
I've rebooted, switched USB ports, nothing changes the facts. I suspect a windows update caused this but I have no evidence.
Any suggestions or additional tests I could do?
