Received mine way earlier than expected.

 

 

Works great!

 

 

 

Worth its money. Even though Thrustmaster should have done a proper job in the first place.

Ordered mine today (#3213) and I was just wondering - which gate do you prefer and why? Is the round one better or square has more room to move?

 

I'm using the square, because logic dictated that (not beeing a calibrated PS controller) you wouldn't get full axis travel at the diagonals, however I did a quick test of this when installing and I seemed to conclude that you did get full travel in all situations (not sure how that works), I still ended up going with the square one, and haven't used the round one on actual gameplay to tell the diference.

Not sure I understand the question.

 

But it's specifically built for the TM Warthog throttle, and probably won't fit into the TM Cougar throttle.

 

That is the question (I just edited the post lol, typing in a rush). The fittings seem very similar to the Cougar, But without taking it apart hard to tell.

Order 2819 arrived today! It is late and I am tired, but I may try to install it tonight.

 

 

Damn... Still no joy on 2804. But I didnt pay the extra shipping so unfortunately, no tracking number.

 

 

[kicking own ass for not getting tracking and upgraded shipping]

 

 

Maybe tomorrow. :joystick:

Installed and calibrated. Instructions were clear and correct. Calibration accomplished without any issues. Thrustmaster is stupid for not making the original slew stick as good or better than this one. Well worth the cost.

 

My order included two of these slew upgrades because I have a second throttle. It may also need firmware version 23, so there will be one extra step before installing the mod. But I am in no hurry since the one I use every day is already upgraded and working perfectly.

Slew axis tune profile please

 

Just ordered the Warthog throttle slew upgrade kit and can't wait to receive it. I was wondering if someone could provide a slew axis tune profile pls. Many thanks!

I grew up on the F22 Pro, mentored by Cowboy Bill Wilson, (God rest his soul), followed Dr. James Hallows and bought his chip mods.

So, I did not get the added shipping/tracking with my order #2804... did not notice the two options for that when I ordered while I was half asleep.

 

 

Has anyone else ordered using the standard shipping method? What was your time frame from shipping to receipt?

 

 

I show 2804 as being shipped out on 1/9/2020 and as of today, 1/27/2020 still no package yet... Just wondering what the expected ship time is for that option.

Mine took 13 days to Canada. The wildcard in shipping time is how long it happens to get tied up in customs. If they decide to look at it further it could be delayed longer, or it they might let it go through untouched and it would have been fast.
