and another difference, my ps2 connector was light grey.

miky, now i understand, on mine that whole area was filled with hot glue!

miky, did you get all of the hot glue out?

miky, if you take out the phillips screw on side of the extension tube you can removed the extension cap from the tube. be carefull as there are short wires inside. then you can see the backside of the ps2 connector, thats where the hot glue is.

zahry, how do we set the extension to the 20' offset?

miky, mine was hot glued in. i just just cut the hot glue loose from the ps2 connector & extension top with a heavy duty exacto knife. then pulled the loose hot glue out with needle nose pliers. once the hot glue was out i applied some firm pressure to the front of the ps2 shell & gently twisted the ps2 connector body.

got my extension today. initially the buttons were not working. disassembled the extension top, removed the hot glue, removed 3mm off the connector plastic housing, removed a little off the inside of extension top to allow space for a wire soldered to the connector shell, replaced the hot glue & now it works. thanks

i used some M4 (i think) machine screws to displace the joystick base from the plate about 4 inches. i place the plate under my thighs with the stick between my thighs & it's just about the right height, at least for me. it's quick & cheap.

great, thanks!

is there a fps display in A-10c?

got it thanks, i finally realized you could click on the box & select the trackir axis

i set my tracifk z axis to zoom & the throttle incr/decr slide to fore/aft shift (which is the default trackir z axis)

i raised the joystick about 2 inches off the baseplate by using 2 inch long 4mm machine screws between the plate & joystick mount. now i place the baseplate under my thighs and the joystick is about the right height between them.

I use it for absolute longitudinal head position in the cockpit & use TIR as my zoom

is there a way to use the trackir z as zoom & use a rotary as translation in the z axis?
