  2. Hi, I have a Cougar and a Warthog. Both have problems. My Cougar was that bad that i thougt about rebilding the internals.... other Story. My Warthorg was fine from the outside, but after connecting it I faced the Problem of failing right Throttle. Ok here we go (again) lets have a look inside (I'm IT-Electrician). After figuring out how to open it I found the same sh** I had with my Cougar. Cold solder points massive amounts of hotglue well just bad manufactured electronics. I considered resoldering or replacement and went for the second. When I Pay 340,00 Euro (441,92 Dollar) for a "masterpice" of Hardware I think it should be working as intendet. But after all I wouldn't want another. So far a friend has a Saitek and an other has an Logitech and both have much more Problems. Software issues, even worse electronics. Thats why I have purchased the Wartohg. About the electronics, well I hope that TM isn't dooing it to maximise profit, but from my opinion the should change the assambling facility or at least kick the asses of the QC Section and use better connectors for the inside of the stick. I think in this range of price it would make sense investing some more here and and put the 10€ Price raise ontop.... As I mentioned same was with my Cougar, but this stick had serious construction issues. Several Mods are out for it. Most of em cost the same as the whole Stick but they are worth it. I hope I could help and don't beat the cra* out of me for my bad english. I'm not a native :)
  3. Hotas Warthog Member No.# 16523 Serials from TARGET# #Throttle 01523 #Joystick 01320 Location# Kassel, Germany ***Upcoming Replacement*** Throttle needs to be replaced. Cold soldering and probably broken Hallsensor for right Engine Throttle. Replacement Requestet from Vendor due to Age of 2 Days -.-
  4. This Work is more than words can say. Good Luck and I hope you'll keep us updated kind regards
  5. hey guys whats up is the Project still alive? I wanna have one of the Marvelous Sticks Greez from Germany
  6. Well wasserfall, i have studied the lockon manual from the beginning to the damn last site, need more than 2 Weeks xD, but I can't understand how you read all the functions out :P Did you think about an own project Website for this amazing Work? It would be a good idiea to display the project better and without, "sorry" , these Komments. And i think, its the only thing to publish it as it has to be published. Greez PS: Omg my english is sleeping, sorry for the mistakes but I'm yust a German^^
  7. Wasserfall Is it possible to get an overview Picture of the Frontpanel with a descrition of all? For Example arrow to RWR and at a 2nd page RWR is standing for .... and the switch is toggeling radar lock mode for all or / locked only an this for all knobs and switches , leds lamps etc... its a lot of work but it would help other Homepitbuildest to build thier own same thing for the lide panels and the trottle and the Stick would be awsome Greetz from Germany Rock@wulf
  8. Hey dudes, it's going to be very quiet here. Are you still at work? --it doesn't matter I found this www.opencocpits.com and after several questions to the developer i know that these cards also work with LockOn, maybe it will be helpful for you. MFG Rock@wulf PS: Whats the status of the Project?
  9. Well I think that I have to chancel the circut tests becaus I found a nice Opensource Project www.opencockpits.com I try to connect the system with LockOn simply vor the keys and switches and a few LED's but i Dont know how it works. I'll tell you somethig about , if it wors.
  10. Well thats the point... I'm going to try this circuit: but then you would need external 12V powersupply and the circuit supports only 2 Switches linked to 1 key
  11. Hey guys, you do a very amazig work here. I've never seen such an realistic rebuilt. But at all I've got some questions for you. At First how did you solve the problem Switch to Push Button, I saw the little image on the 3rd page or so which displayed a little circute. If it's possible could you send me more detailed information about the parts and may be a plan to rebuilt it? I'm going to built my own little homepit, really smaler as yours... :-( If i had more money I would buy one of yours :P But I can't solve the damm problem with the switches and the keyboard connector. Now the second question is, how much will be one of your Pits included with shipping to Germany :P? I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best regards, Rock@wulf PS: I'm still learning english i hope you can manage my mistakes:P
