Alem do problema "tijolo" do throttle, um novo:
Well my HOTAS Warthog has been brilliant but three days ago it was as if the spring tension on the stick slacked, if you centre the stick and let it go it will simply drop 2cm to the left and there's no resistence in the centre posoition.

Fortunately TM support was very fast here, after initial request for support they requested a video showing the issue at hand. a few hours after hey received the video I got a new mail asking me to seperate the base that clearly was defective so it could undergo repairs. No hassle and no worries here.

PS. I'm glad I kept my CH setup.
Aparentemente quebrou um dos suportes das molas satelites. :^)

Esse é o efeito de envelhecimento para ficar parecendo um Grip rústico de verdade. :P :D

Ainda bem que tem garantia:
I should be in receipt of my FOURTH replacement Warthog HOTAS in approx 2-3 week’s time - awaiting stock from Amazon.

The first unit worked like a charm for the first couple of weeks that was until the Joystick failed to be recognized by Windows.

The second and third units have both suffered LED failures. No biggy really, but having less than 3 months of use out of those units prompted me to return these also. I did noticed one other thread regarding LED failures so assumed that this was quite an uncommon problem.

The good wife cannot understand why I just don’t get a refund and have done with it. I guess she will never understand, he-ho
Esse aqui (da Suiça), gastou 90 euros de frete para enviar para a troca:
Yes i feel sorry for you too, I have been struggle with TM since march!
I want my outlay for the shipping cost, i am up to near 800 sek about 90-95 euro now. And i have sent them my copy of the shipping cost but they say they dont reseive it ! what the **** i have payed extra so it must arrived.

Ô dó:

Devastated - my TM Warthog Joystick Trim POV no longer works

Loc: Sydney, NSW, AUSTRALIA

I can't believe it - I've barely used my Warthog, clocking a maximum of 30 hours out of it. I've never been able to get Trim working properly in DCS A10, so tonight went into the controls to reassign the Trim hat. I noticed that I could only assign trim right - up, left and down weren't working all.

Head into the windows joystick properties panel to test all the buttons, and lo and behold the joystick TRIM/POV hat now only recognises right, up/right, and down/right. I'm really disappointed that it's broken so early.

I was hoping you guys might have a DIY solution? Being based in Australia, it's going to take a loooong time to get this returned and fixed. Please, please, please let me know if you can think of any fixes.
:P

Um conhecido comprou um HOTAS Warthog para usar no... FSX! :o Já tem Yoke e pedal sSaitek, throttle 747 da GoFlight e modulos de rádio.

E eis que com ~um mês de uso, liga o micro e o Throttle:

Image

Bem, sugeri acionar a garantia local da Thrustmaster - isso se a compra foi "legal".

E que se não preocupasse, pois no futuro caso pife de novo fora de garantia, "daremos" um jeito. ]:)
