Yet another warthog slew upgrade

So what is the price? and how to order?

Thanks very much to the guy who posted on hoggit, I got quote a few orders from there :thumbup:

My pleasure :)

Your product is just too good. I had to spread the word.

My replacement came with the stick already on the joystick, so you should include disassembly instructions for this part... I tried twisting it to unscrew it, which obviously didn't work, but pulled it off after reading later steps in the instructions.

Other than that, smooth install!

Another improvement to the instructions would be to have an option to only disassemble the middle panel via 5 screws. This gives you better access to the interior compartment logic board and it also doesn't strain the other wires inside. Taking off the outside panel and stretching the wires was too much risk.

Does anyone remember Wags saying that the F18 slew normally requires button press/hold, then movement of the cursor, but he then modified the code to slew without button press?

What is the status on this with the upgraded slew stick? Are we still limited by the thrustmaster software?

In the hornet's special option tab, there's a box that says "realistic TDC slew"

I guess my question is whether the slew upgrade hardware fixed the problem or if it's more downstream in the wiring of the warthog.

Order #1882 just found the email. Cant wait to change it, i bloody hate the current one, what were they thinking!!?

ORDER #1937 Same here

Now I'm curious how the order numbers work. I ordered over a week ago and have a higher number than anything else I've seen posted!

Every time I want to buy one of these he's out of stock. :(

You'll just have to pre-order one and wait until delivery. That's what I did and I'm more than happy with the slew upgrade. :) Did the same thing with my VKB Gunfighter stick. It takes 2 or 3 month, but in the end I am very pleased with both.

Yeah, i'll have to get on the list. I get along with the stock slew. I build up the nub with super glue. It helps a lot but it's still a lousy slew. I don't understand it either. TM has a nice slew on the 1600. Why don't they use it on the Warthog?

Just got my ship email (Order #1784). Anyone know how long it takes to get to the USA once you got the shipping confirmation email?

Hey all!

First of all thx @Deltaalphalima1 for this great upgrade. Looks awesome, looking forward to installing it. :thumbup:

My ORDER is 1932, no mail about dispatch received yet.

It doesn't fix the issue.

With the hoggit bumrush, I imagine there may be a little wait for most of us, I imagine. This isn't something we could expect a small vendor to have 100 of on the shelf without already having most of them ready to ship.

Of course!

The shop said the dispatch will be in June, so I'm happy with getting it in June. ;)

Oh, sweet. I didn't actually see that, so I was planning to expect even later than that!

I am very pleased to announce my new thumbstick based Warthog throttle slew upgrade kit!!

 

Using an ALPS RKJXV1224005 mini joystick https://www.alps.com/prod/info/E/HTML/MultiControl/Potentiometer/RKJXK/RKJXV1224005.html

The same as used in the PS4 and Xbox 1 controllers.

 

It is a complete, drop in and plug and play replacement kit for the original warthog throttle slew sensor, only a recalibration with the Thrustmaster utility is required. No drilling, soldering or extra USB cables.

It will retain all functions of the original, including the push button switch.

 

Initial price will be around £40 including free international shipping to anywhere in the world. (Subject to change depending on parts availability)

 

They should be available to purchase by around June, if anyone is interested please message me to reserve one.

just got mine:

I love it already. took about 30 minutes to print the doc. find a screw driver (you will need a little one) and read instriction step by step then "enjoye" just Great

many thanks

Calm down. There's a reason you're given an estimate on which MONTH it'll be sent. I'm just barely sub #1800 but mine is supposed to arrive sometime this month.

Eyyyy, I got mine! I didn't get an email saying it was shipped, so I wasn't expecting it this early in the month. Got it installed and calibrated, looks okay so far in Windows! Installation took probably 15 minutes. The hardest part was getting the original slew sensor's connector out.

Update: Fastest way I knew how to test this in a game was Elite Dangerous, and... yeah, works amazingly. Full right deflection does mean my finger just barely brushes against the coolie hat but it's pretty negligible. Yay for accuracy! Money well spent!

Got my order in, #2013. Excitement is real. Roll on Julyish! That and the MFD's will be a huge quality of life upgrade!

Tips: Put a silicone thumbsick cap (Nintendo, Sony, etc.) on the slew stick to make slewing a lot easier. With the cap on, it sticks to your finger really well.

This is what I stole from my kid's Nintendo switch.
