First of all, all this is based on postings in this forum or on reddit. Credit goes to the original contributors, I just stumbled through until it worked. So, since I deem TARGET to be quite unreliable for some people (and restricted to Thrustmaster devices) I will try to explain how to create a …
Greetings everyone. First time poster here i hope you gentlemen will help me with my decision to get a new TM warthog hotas. I currently own the…
U.S. Air Force A-10C attack aircraft HOTAS™ (Hands On Throttle And Stick) replica joystick pack
Thrustmaster Warthog Slew Sensor I2C Upgrade: This is a rough guide on how to interface with the I2C protocol used on the ThrustmasterWarthog throttle slew sensor. This can be used to upgrade from the fairly useless standard ministick to something better, But still using the standard USB contro…
I made this at the request of the /r/hoggit community. This part replaces the afterburner stop inside the Thrustmaster Warthog throttle. The modification allows the throttle to be pushed over the afterburner stop without needing to lift the throttle levers up by hand. Simply continue to push the throttle forward and it will go over the stop. Also, just like the original part, you can flip this one around so that there is no afterburner stop. Print the model with the “wings” towards the bottom touching the bed. The original piece on my joystick varied between 5.8 and 6.0 mm in width. This model is 5.85 mm wide. Depending on your printer and filament, you may have to ever so slightly sand down the body to make it fit.
We build a mount for the Saitek X56 stick and throttle using aluminium PG40 profile and 10mm perspex.
Thanks for watching - I hope you found this informative and fun. These HOTAS (joystick/throttle) table mounts are very similar to those available commercially, but are built largely with off the shelf materials, and are pretty simple to put together.
