Windows 11 and SpaceMouse Pro. Working out of the box. Takes some time to get used to as TinkerCad seems to rotate the scene around an axis centerpoint that is the viewport camera - not sure how to change that. Also, missing a way to limit the translation speed of the viewport. Zooming in/out of the viewport not working. Model manipulation works perfectly though! A great helper if you work often with TinkerCad.
