OverDhill Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 I keep reading about re-greasing the Warthog. I think they must have changed something with the newer sticks as there is no stickiness on mine at all. It is a bit firm when moving but an extension should fix that somewhat when I get it done. Anyone else with a Warthog have any sticky or non-smooth movement issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Eshark did the spring/grease mod but mine seems to be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothkrieger Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Any software conflicts if the Warthog stick is connected to a computer that the remaining controllers are CH? I know CH has it's programming and calibration software and I imagine the Warthog has its software as well. Would it be a case of installing both softwares (thus possible conflict) or for example the CH software could be used for everything. The stick is sold separate and I like the config of my CH throttle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Why not buy the set and then sell the throttle? I am sure that the for sale board at ED would get you good dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverDhill Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Personally I would think the throttle would be the first thing to go. I have a CH throttle way back in the day and it really does not have enough functions for me. The X52 Pro throttle was nice but the stick had a huge deadzone issue. I almost went with a CH Fighterstick and X52 throttle combo right before my wife bought me the Warthog as a retirement gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverDhill Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 This was posted on the DCS forum Originally Posted by LeadDoctor Back in September I was in contact with TM about the gimbal. Pictures and part numbers were exchanged then I got the email of doom. "Kindly be informed there is no misunderstanding regarding the part. This part is no longer available, we don't offer it as a spare part any more." So Yeah been flying with the broken gimbal and just cant handle it any more. Going to use the strongest panel bonding glue around tomorrow as a last hope. Any thoughts, suggestions or what have you I'm open to listening. New post: Lead Doctor I got onto their (Thrustmaster's) Facebook page and asked them the following question: Any truth in the rumour that Thrustmaster are no longer supporting (making spares for) the Warthog? To which their answer was: Thrustmaster Hi, false rumour. We of course support all our Warthog owners. So it would appear that someone somewhere in the customer service/support/parts foodchain either does not know what is available or just doesn't want to supply the part for some reason. I would suggest that all members of the forum that read this topic should go over to the facebook page and begin asking about this en masse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
