    They are out of stock because they have not yet begun to ship. That is why it is called a pre order. Two days ago a search for HP Reverb on amazon would yield nothing at all. I ordered. As soon as they begin shipping I will get my tracking number. Simple.:joystick: PoleCat Out

    I use a TM Warthog Throttle, a TM Cougar NXT Joystick, Simped Rudders w/Toe Brakes (attached to the game port on the Cougar Stick), along with a Cougar MFD pack. I use TARGET to combine these devices into a Thrustmaster combined controller. My question is can I easily use your profiles with this combination? I know that you support the Warthog and the Cougar controllers but what about one of each? Thanks in advance for any help. PoleCat

    I purchased a KW-908 jet seat from Andre quite some time ago through these forums. I have been, and continue to be very pleased with this piece of gear and well satisfied with the purchase. The effects and added immersion it brings to DCS are awesome, and in conjunction with the oculus it is incredible. Unfortunately I ran some tests today after a new system build and have encountered an apparent hardware failure of one of the force feedback motors. It seems that the right shoulder force feedback motor is not working. I can hear a slight buzzing coming from it but it does not vibrate fully like the others. There are no broken pins on the DIN plug and both the wires are connected at the motor. I put a small slit in the back to feel around to confirm this. Is there any chance I can purchase a replacement motor? Can you offer any help in troubleshooting the issue? Instructions on disassembly and repair? Thank you in advance for any help you can offer, and for a great product and excellent software! ~PoleCat

    Careful with this one. It is actually version 801 not 802 and once I updated my Z270-A to 801 it has broken XMP settings for my memory which worked fine in the previous bios. I may flash back to the release version 701 for this reason. Interestingly even on the Asus Z170-A platform any bios after 2202 breaks XMP settings until you reset the bios to defaults manually (even though the bios is automatically set to default after the flash, I had to do it once more manually or setting XMP for my Gskill memory would always result in a failed boot). This was on 3 different systems using the Asus Z170-A and Gskill memory, all of which worked fine with XMP settings in every bios release up to and including bios 2202. The problem started with Bios 3007 and the continues in 3301. Who ever is creating the new Bios updates at Asus is really dropping the ball on quality. I am still waiting for a call back from one of their engineers to discuss the issue. Hopefully they can get to the bottom of it and correct the problems soon.

    In my experience GSkill memory is top notch. I have been using it exclusively in my builds for quite some time. Good stuff. Out

    Could not disagree with you more. "Mine stuck so bad brand new in the forward position that it would almost stay there by itself." I and many people I know use the Warthog and I have not heard of this from any of them. Two people I know just purchased their Warthogs a couple of weeks ago and they both love them! "if the Warthog was ever good it's not so any more(of recent units)." How many "recent units" have you checked out? As I wrote in an earlier post I am still using my decade + old stock Cougars. These are working fine. In fact I am just now this many years later considering hall sensor kits for my stock Cougars as an upgrade. (even though the pots are working fine). I also own a Warthog which I purchased upon release. I absolutely love it and I expect it will last every bit as long as my Cougar's have. Comparing the feel of the Warthog Stick with the T16000m is like comparing a Ferrari to a Volkswagen. These are just not in the same league......:joystick: It sounds to me like you had a very bad experience but I can say with confidence that while I do know many Warthog owners thankfully I don't know of any that feel as you do about theirs.
