Vampr Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 That's funny, I just received a new coolie hat from Guillemot. They answered my email immediately with an automated reply. I had to go through their process which involved emailing them a few more times, paying them with PayPal and waiting weeks for delivery but they did come through in the end. It doesn't happen fast, but it is possible if you're patient.

Lange_666 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Is it? I need too.And it's broken. Yes, it are those (the original ones). But as i have said to another person who wants them, you have to wait a bit, i'm in the middle of a house renovation and they are stored away "deep". It's over 10 years since i've used them so they could be a bit dusty...:joystick: Win11 Pro 64-bit, Ryzen 5800X3D, Corsair H115i, Gigabyte X570S UD, EVGA 3080Ti XC3 Ultra 12GB, 64 GB DDR4 G.Skill 3600.

debolestis Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I know about that problem. That is why I asked. I need the part in picture, maybe somebody with broken gimbal doesn't need it any more. I want to use it on other joystick. If you want to sell it please send me a PM. - Debolestis' Shapeways store - Debolestis' Facebook page - Suncom SFS and Talon restoration and mods - Cougar replacement gimbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sokol1_br Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 See at end of list: http://cougar.flyfoxy.com/warranty_parts.php Cougar use this model: [ame]http://dkc3.digikey.com/pdf/EU2011-EN/2077.pdf[/ame] Now obsolete - see the alternatives suggested by Digikey: http://www.digikey.com/product-search/en?keywords=252A104B60NB But you find similar in eBay, they are called there "replacement ministick" (for PS2/3, XBox) or thumbstick, is the same thing.

Fakum Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Ok, so here's a problem, I found a brand new microstick in my bag of parts I purchased over 10 years ago, nice right1 well, its soldered to Thrustmasters circuit board. There are about 14 pins that need to be unsoldered to remove it from the board, I don't know of any technique that would enable me to heat all the pins up at once to slide the old microstick off the board? Heating 1 pin at a time is not going to work? Any ideas? And thank you for the links Sokol1_br Windows 10 Pro - 64 Bit / ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming / AMD 7800X3D / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 64GB DDR5 6000 Ram / SSD M.2 SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB / MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 SUPRIM Liquid X 24G / SteelSeries Arctis 7 Headset /LG-Ultragear 38" IPS LED Ultrawide HD Monitor (3840 x 1600) / Track IR4 / Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder Pedals / Virpil HOTAS VPC Constellation ALPHA-R & VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debolestis Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 You need something called desoldering wick, it is easiest metod for beginner.
