Exact model / identifierWINWING URSA MINOR Fighter Joystick; left/right grip and package variants exist. Record the handedness and revision shown on the unit.
Design and controlsDesktop/cockpit-oriented joystick with fighter-style trigger, hats and programmable grip inputs. The URSA MINOR line is sold in left- and right-hand configurations; do not assume the grips, controls or manuals are interchangeable.
Physical interfaceWired USB input to a Windows PC. Basic recognition and advanced configuration are separate; use the vendor’s current setup documents for the matching right- or left-hand variant.
Host compatibilityWindows PC flight simulation is the intended host. No official Xbox or PlayStation support is listed. Game compatibility depends on its support for standard USB axes and button input.
Driver and configurationWINWING’s SimAppPro and download center provide the vendor configuration, firmware and manuals as applicable. Confirm the version and variant before updating firmware, calibrating or importing a profile.

Setup and control mapping

Assign stick axes, trigger and grip hats in the target simulator after the vendor setup/calibration procedure. Confirm all axes reach their endpoints, verify button numbering, and save a profile specific to the host/game.

Before use, connect the device directly to the stated host, confirm it appears once in the operating system’s controller list, and test every axis and button. Keep host calibration separate from in-game dead-zone and sensitivity settings so later maintenance can reproduce the baseline.

Preservation and service notes

Keep the USB cable strain-relieved and the gimbal clear of dust. Note left/right variant, spring or tension configuration, firmware and calibration data; update only with the matching vendor package and stable power.

Revision caveat: URSA MINOR is a Windows PC flight-sim product, not a console joystick. Model/handedness options matter; use the matching manual instead of inferring compatibility from the family name.

For a physical archive entry, record the as-found label, serial/part number where present, accessories, host OS, driver or firmware version, and test method. Separate observed condition from published specifications.
