Have you got this working under Linux? I have one of these:

I've had it working under Windows before, but I've yet to have my 2.4 kernel bind it to a js[0-9] device.
Yes, it is running under Linux (Redhat 8). I've been using it w/ Linux since last June (i.e. it is reliable).
Have you heard of any R/C USB gadgets doing all 8 channels in proportional mode, rather than running channels 5-8 as buttons?
FWIW, I just checked and RCJOY also works w/ fgfs in Windows.
Regards, Michael
