K8055 as data input for control of Flight Simulator program

USB interface board K8055

I have built the above board, but wish to use it a a 'games controller' for the program Flight Simulator.  That is, to use it as a switch and data input, and to be recognised by the computor as a games controller for those inputs.

Can this be done?  Do I need any different software?

Hoping for some help

It is not possible to use K8055 as a came controller without changing the firmware (and the microcontroller) of the K8055. Indeed, there are game controllers that are USB HID Class (Human Interface Device Class) devices, but they have completely different software interface to the PC than the K8055.
You can use the K8055D.DLL function calls in your own software application to control its operation via the K8055 card’s digital and analog inputs.
