MOZA bases can also operate as a generic device, supporting flight titles not listed above by configuring axis and button mappings in-game. Fine-tune force feedback in MOZA Cockpit software.

Yes, MOZA bases support certain third-party flightsticks including:

• F-16C Viper HOTAS Add-On Grip
• F/A-18C Hornet HOTAS Add-On Grip
• Constellation ALPHA Prime [R], Constellation ALPHA [R]
• MongoosT-50CM2 Grip (some batches may not be compatible)
• WW18 and WW16EX Metal Joystick (requires extra MOZA adaptor and data cable)

Support for additional flightsticks will expand through future updates.

As long as the connectors on both ends have the correct 5-pin data cable interfaces, it should work in theory. However, MOZA cannot guarantee full functionality with third-party accessories.

Generally, devices from different brands can only be used via separate USB ports to the Windows PC. Beyond this, they are not typically compatible or supported with each other.

All MOZA flight peripherals connect directly to a Windows PC via USB. Some devices (like the MTQ Throttle Quadrant) also support RJ11 connection to MOZA flight bases. Each device is recognized as an independent game controller.

Technically, you can use any cable with the correct connectors on both ends. However, MOZA cannot guarantee full functionality with third-party cables.

Download the latest MOZA Cockpit installer from the MOZA Flight Download Center. Run the installer and follow the on-screen prompts. After installation, launch MOZA Cockpit and connect your MOZA devices via USB.

1. Install and launch MOZA Cockpit.
2. Connect your MOZA base and peripherals via USB.
3. The software will automatically detect connected devices.
4. Follow the calibration wizard for each device.
5. Configure force feedback and input settings to your preference.

Yes. MOZA bases feature standard mounting hole patterns compatible with most cockpits. Refer to the Product Dimensions article for exact mounting hole spacing. For third-party cockpits, confirm compatibility with the manufacturer before purchasing.

The MOZA base automatically performs centering calibration when powered on. If the center position drifts, you can manually recalibrate through MOZA Cockpit software. Ensure the flightstick is not being touched during calibration.

1. Confirm the power cable is properly connected.
2. Ensure the power switch (if applicable) is turned on.
3. Press the power button on the rear of the base.
4. Check for damage to the power supply or cables.
5. Inspect the power port on the base for visible damage.

If issues persist, contact support@mozaracing.com.

1. Check if the power cable is loose.
2. If the rear indicator light is flashing, hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn off, then press again to restart.
3. Open "USB Game Controllers" in Windows and verify the device appears.
4. If the device is unresponsive, contact support@mozaracing.com.

1. Ensure the flightstick is properly connected to the base.
2. Check that the flightstick is selected in MOZA Cockpit's flightstick page.
3. Try unplugging and reconnecting the device.
4. Update firmware via MOZA Cockpit.
5. If using a third-party flightstick, verify it appears in the supported list.

Go to Steam Settings → Controller → uncheck "Enable Steam Input for generic controllers." If the issue persists, try reinstalling Steam.

Unplugging and reconnecting the USB cable during gameplay causes the game to register the device as disconnected. Completely close and restart the game for the device to be recognized again.

This is typically caused by the game misidentifying controller options. Exit the game, restart the base, and remap the axes and buttons before starting the game again.

1. Verify the game supports telemetry force feedback (see supported games list).
2. Ensure MOZA Cockpit is running in the background.
3. Check that force feedback is enabled in both MOZA Cockpit and the game settings.
4. Verify the game telemetry/API output is enabled in the game options.

1. Ensure the flightstick is properly connected and recognized in MOZA Cockpit.
2. Try binding in the game's control settings while actively pressing each button.
3. Check if the game requires the device to be selected as the primary controller.
4. Reset the game's control profile and re-bind.

1. Adjust FFB strength in the game settings (e.g., DCS and War Thunder support in-game FFB adjustments).
2. Increase or decrease force feedback intensity in MOZA Cockpit's base settings.
3. Try different force feedback output modes in MOZA Cockpit.

Spring Strength: Controls the centering force — higher values make the flightstick return to center more strongly.
Damper: Adds resistance to movement — higher values make the flightstick feel heavier.
Inertia: Simulates the mass feel of the flightstick — higher values add more weight to movement.
Friction: Adds constant resistance throughout the range of motion.

Direct Output Mode: Raw force feedback signals from the game are passed directly to the base — recommended for most users.
Enhanced Output Mode: MOZA's processing layer adds additional effects and smoothing. Useful for older sims or fine-tuning feel.

Click the base icon in MOZA Cockpit to access the configuration page. Click "Auto Calibrate" on the right side of the settings page. The base also calibrates automatically each time it is powered on. Manual adjustments can be made if necessary.

1. Reduce force feedback intensity in MOZA Cockpit.
2. Check for loose mounting or desk vibration.
3. Ensure the base firmware is up to date.
4. Try recalibrating the base.
5. If the issue persists, contact support@mozaracing.com.

In MOZA Cockpit's base settings, adjust the Soft Limits for X (roll) and Y (pitch) axes. This electronically limits the force feedback range without restricting physical movement. Useful for matching virtual cockpit control throws.

Select the third-party flightstick model from the dropdown list on the flightstick configuration page in MOZA Cockpit. If your model is not listed, try selecting a similar grip type. Some functions may not be fully supported.

The hat switch can be configured as either an 8-way POV hat (for view/trim control) or as 8 independent button inputs. Switch modes in MOZA Cockpit depending on your aircraft and preference.

Game path settings in MOZA Cockpit allow the software to automatically detect installed flight simulators and load the correct preset configurations. Set the game installation folder for each title to enable auto-detection.

In MOZA Cockpit, navigate to the Presets tab, browse available aircraft presets, and click to load. You can also create custom presets and save them per aircraft.

Configure all base settings (spring, damper, inertia, friction, FFB mode) to your preference, then click "Save As New Preset" in the Presets tab. Name it after the aircraft or scenario.

In MOZA Cockpit's base settings, click "Factory Reset" or "Reset Base." Only perform a reset under MOZA Support guidance if troubleshooting has not resolved the issue.

Connect your MOZA devices via USB, open MOZA Cockpit, and go to the firmware update section. Click "Check for Updates" and follow the prompts. Do not disconnect devices during firmware updates.

Green dots: Current axis position within normal operating range.
Red dots: Axis position near or at the limit (soft limit or physical limit). When red dots appear consistently, check your flightstick calibration or soft limit settings.

1. When MOZA Cockpit crashes, an error report window should appear — click "Submit" to send the crash log.
2. If the report fails to submit, locate the log files in the MOZA Cockpit installation directory.
3. Email the log files to support@mozaracing.com with a description of what you were doing when the crash occurred.

Running MOZA Cockpit as administrator is recommended for proper device communication and firmware updates. Right-click the shortcut → Run as Administrator, or set it permanently in Properties → Compatibility.
