Troubleshooting

Joystick not recognized by PC/Xbox

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the joystick and the host device. Try a different USB port. For Xbox, verify it's connected through a compatible Thrustmaster steering wheel and that you are playing Farming Simulator 25.

Buttons or axes not responding correctly

Restart the game and the connected device. Check the in-game control mapping settings to ensure all inputs are correctly assigned. On PC, ensure no other conflicting game controllers are connected.

Inconsistent or erratic cursor movement

The H.E.A.R.T sensors are generally very stable. Ensure the joystick base is on a flat surface and not being bumped. If the issue persists, try recalibrating the joystick through your operating system's game controller settings (PC) or consult the game's specific troubleshooting.

Hand throttle is not functioning

Check the in-game settings for throttle axis assignment. Ensure the throttle is properly mapped within the game's controls.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The SimTask FarmStick X connects via a USB Type-A to USB Type-C cable. Simply plug the USB Type-C end into the stick and the USB Type-A end into an available USB port on your PC (Windows 10/11) or Xbox Series X|S console. For Xbox, ensure you are using a compatible Thrustmaster steering wheel as the primary controller connection, and the FarmStick X connects through it. The device is plug-and-play, meaning no drivers are typically required on PC, and it should be automatically recognized in compatible games.

Compatibility:

  • PC: Windows 10 and Windows 11.
  • Xbox Series X|S: Only compatible with Farming Simulator 25 and *must* be used in conjunction with a Thrustmaster steering wheel.

Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity, keep the joystick clean. Use a dry or slightly damp, soft cloth to wipe down the surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the plastic or internal components. Ensure the USB cable is not subjected to excessive strain or bending. Store the device in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use.
