Next one is a no name bought at Conrad (again Euro 9.99). It's a PS-Style variation, but this time silent.

Again rather funny Strings:
"DragonRise Inc. " "Generic USB Joystick "I realy wonder how come that two different controllers house the same mal formated Product string - is there any strange compatibility issue, oder just common copy and paste?
The HID Descriptor is a bit weired. It reports 5 axis values, two of them named 'Direction Z' (usage 04/32)
More over, why is there an additional OUT-pipe? The HID descriptor even offers a structure for it. This would make sense if we had some vibrator motors or such. No Idea.
No Nuthing - just the weired name:)
All elements are detected:
Note that the sequence of the 4 diamond buttons is changed The controller features a 'MODE' button, switching various functions. A red LED displays the state. Further 'On' refers to a once pressed mode button with a lit LED. Further two switches labled 'Rapid' and 'Auto' are present. They control a local auto fire mechanism. If Auto is pressed with another button, this button will be repeated (~8Hz?) indefinite. The LED will flicker accordingly. If Rapid is pressed with another button, this button will be repeated when ever pressed. The Assignments are reet by a reset button on the back. No additional information is transfered over USB (except for triggering) - or?
The following assignment can be detected:

Windows assigns the standard HID driver (hidusb.sys) which includes Joystick handling.
Except for a different asignment of the 4 top right buttons it's virtually equal to the bigben gamepad. See there for comments regarding handling and FF-'features'.
