Hi,
As I switched to the new mk2 Ultra version today, everything else went smoothly, except I noticed an annoying thing in the latest firmware (which was pre-installed) when used with the Thrustmaster grip: the trim hat sends both the POV hat directions and also button presses (e.g., button number 28). This is harmless when I already have bindings, but when configuring bindings it results in annoying combos bound to actions (e.g., POV Up + Button 27) because there is no way to tell simulators that I only meant one of the two.
Would it be possible to disable the duplication?
TM trim hat sends both POV and buttons

Dear Arkku
To avoid this, please select HAT as TRIM instead POV and in this way, will send only the HID buttons

Dear this modification can hit other users, sorry-
Would be necessary a more in depth modification in the firmware and RS_HID_DEV, so maybe in big rewrite will be possible include your suggestion.

Re: TM trim hat sends both POV and buttons
Hmm, but your earlier firmware did exactly that, and with my older FSSB R3L this exact change is why I'm not upgrading the firmware (I'm using something like 2018 version on it), so I would argue the current behaviour is already a breaking change for some users. I honestly don't see why anyone would need two actions (POV + button) from the same action, so it seems logical that TRIM as POV ON would send only POV, and TRIM as POV OFF would send only button. Why would anyone have it send both at the same time?

Re: TM trim hat sends both POV and buttons
Yes this is obviously a bug.
Right now TRIM only sends buttons, but POV sends buttons and TRIM inputs which is not very useful, since if you want to use POV you will also trim your aircraft without noticing. This really needs to be fixed. Im using mk2 and v2 grip and this is happening.
