Shabi Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Hi, I used to use the x52 Pro and had a love for the paddle switches on the base of the stick: They're great for things like gear, engine on/off etc. Can anyone suggest a similar stand-alone USB switch deck, or a set of switches I can rig with an arduino? Even better if I can hack it into Thrustmaster TARGET ;) thanks. Oculus CV1, i7 4790k @ stock, gtx 1080ti @ stock, 32gb PC3-19200 @ 2.4ghz, warthog & saitek pedals, razer tartarus chroma.

98abaile Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I don't think you'll find anything similar. The visible part is actually not a switch, it's just a lever that acts on regular tactile switches soldered to 2 boards behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidfan Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 A DIY solution is your best bet but integrating it with TARGET is not going to happen without hacking a TM product.

Sokol1_br Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) ...t but integrating it with TARGET is not going to happen without hacking a TM product. Or use HempStick firmware. ;) @ OP A momentary (on)-off-(on) switch work in the say way. https://www.radioshack.com/products/20a-dpdt-momentary-flip-switch Edited March 16, 2018 by Sokol1_br Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shabi Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 Thanks RE "momentary flip switch". Half the trick is knowing the right hardware term to search for when looking for a switch. The other that they use here is "spring-back switch". Seems like I could throw a few of those on a box and get an Arduino to push buttons. Looks like Hempstick might be one step up from that, thanks.
