This article shows the Viper TQS calibration which allows you to revalidate the physical center, minimum and maximum axis values ​​in the internal memory of your Viper TQS.

Note:
Since the calibration is saved in the device, it will be done without using any software. Your PC will only be used to connect the Viper TQS to a USB port.
