1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted December 10, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted December 10, 2011 What about a G940 throttle? You'll only be needing Jabo's BU-board with it. But, how are we going to get the thing over there? You willing to pay for shipping? Guessing something like 20GBP? *** just guessing *** Quote
DD_Arthur Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Thats interesting FT but is it worth splitting up the set? Is there something wrong with the stick? I'd feel rather better if you e-bayed it to recover some of your outlay. Edit; Just seen what you did with the stick part of it in another thread. O.K. Could be interesting. I'd need Jabo's Bodnar board to make the connection between throttle and 'puter? What about a power supply? Hmmm......gonna need a soldering iron with a bit more finesse. And plastic lunch box for the Bodnar board, no? Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted December 10, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted December 10, 2011 I really really have no use for the throttle...even though I've put the G940 stick back together to its original state. My lunchbox'o'slider works just fine for me... The Bodnar board goes inside the throttle, as thet throttle has no electronics on its own, apart from the pots and switches... The bodnar board will connect to your computer via USB, the switches and pots will connect to the bodnar board. Throttle has 12 buttons, two trim wheels, two sliders and two hat-switches. (And that single mode switch... which you probably can't use on the standard BU board...) Off course, you will not have the full functionalities of a G940 throttle has when connected to the G940 stick... Like that mode switch. Just PM me an adress, I'll check out shipping cost, and let you know, and then send it along its way... Edit: a power supply you will not be needing. Bodnar board gets its power via USB. And the g940 throtlle does not have anything that draws power... oh, apart from maybe the lights in the P1-P8 buttons.... Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted December 10, 2011 2. Administrators Posted December 10, 2011 Depending on the voltage required, the Bodnar board could drive the lights as it has two +5V outputs. Jabo Quote
DD_Arthur Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 @Jabo and FT, further to our conversation tonight. Check this out; Handy illustrated guide to what we're discussing I knew the banana forum would come in handy for something eventually! Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted December 16, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted December 16, 2011 To be honest, apart from connecting the pots in the throttle to the Bodnar board, what you need to be doing is quite different... :o As you will not be using a G940 stick, only a throttle and pedals, you'll have to remove the electronics in the throttle completely, and connect all switches/buttons to the bodnar board as well. And the pedals. Hm, as we still have plenty of time to DX, I'll open up my throttle, and have a look inside, see how many connectors need to be created. I can also prepare wiring for connections to the bodnar board. Could then even test it with my own board... And if that looks okay, what if Jabo sends the Bu board to me? Then I can build it in the throttle, and make sure it and the pedals work.... Saves you lots of thinkin', time and soldiering... Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted March 30, 2012 2. Administrators Posted March 30, 2012 OK, I'm interested. What are the shipping costs to the UK likely to be Mr Prop? Jabo Quote
PropNut Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 That is a good question sir, let me check with the trusty (sarcasm) United States Posal Service! be right back I'm Baaaaaack. Well, if, and that is a big if, I can get it all to fit into a medium priority mailing box with enough padding to make the trip it should be 48.00USD. If it takes a large priority mailing box it will be 61.00USD Let me know, paypal would be ok for payment. David Edit:Edit:Edit: I also have a full watercooling system for the Core i7 920 that I removed a year or so ago when I stopped using my Steampunked cherry and brass case (as it was designed for that case) I would sell that along with it for another 125.00 if you are interested.

2. Administrators Jabo Posted April 1, 2012 2. Administrators Posted April 1, 2012 OK, that's about £200 in UKP I'll get back to you early next week once i've had a chance to look at the finances Jabo Quote
PropNut Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Let me know. Since the DD site never notifies me of any replies nor PMs I will PM you my email address. David Quote
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted April 3, 2012 1. DDz Quorum Posted April 3, 2012 Let me know. Since the DD site never notifies me of any replies nor PMs I will PM you my email address.David Well now I know I can look into fixing that David! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk Quote
PropNut Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Thanks Rog, I didnt want to bother you with a minor issue since the website disaster of a few months ago. You have had enough headaches to deal with. Quote
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted April 3, 2012 1. DDz Quorum Posted April 3, 2012 I think I know what the issue is with the emails now.. possibly.. IPB in their infinite wisdom added a 'Follow This Topic' button. What this does is make the topic appear in the search 'Topics I am Following' and not an email when a reply is made. Apparently the upgrade removed everybody's email notifications... To get an email you have to visit your user control panel-settings and set the notification options: This image shows why I too don't get emails for followed topics: And why I DO get PM notifications etc: Quote
PropNut Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Way to go Rog! I could have swore that I had checked those settings a while back. Quote

CaptJackG Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 Howdy guys, I've got a set of MFG Crosswind rudder pedals arriving any day now so I am planning on passing on my set of CH rudder pedals to a good home if anyone would like them. Just for the cost of packaging and shipping. Just pm me if you are interested. Quote
T_O_A_D Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Let me ask FastDad? I know he's wanting to fly IL2 again, I just got to get his stuff sorted. It would be good for him to use his legs at it anyway. Quote

1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted December 13, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted December 13, 2014 Microsoft sidewinder steering wheel and pedals now available! Recently refurbished by Jabo this wheel has been great for me playing Assetto Corsa (it will be for you too, go on you know you want to, this is the only approved "other game" by the Priory other than IL2/Clod of course) Get Assetto Corsa and you too can be thrashing round famous racing circuits in no time just for the cost of the postage And incase you are wondering why I am passing it on, I am not giving up on the game, the green eyed monster came to visit and I wanted what the other boys had so I have upgraded to fit the category of "all the gear and no idea" Friar Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted December 13, 2014 2. Administrators Posted December 13, 2014 Tempted to have it back Col, but have nowhere to store it so I'll pass. Glad it's worked for you. Quote
DD_Arthur Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Is this the force feedback model with a USB connection? Quote
