G940. Easy way to extend stick.

You need a screwdriver and about 15 minutes.

Remove the 5 screws marked with red in the image.

Carefully remove the side cover, is fixed with the two tabs marked in yellow.

Removing the side cover pay attention to the trigger, and spring. Remember, always springs fall and perish.

The bar at the base of the joy has two anchors, top and bottom. Last image.

This is the joy set in the upper anchorage.

I checked the base of the joy and the hose is left long enough.

Obviously, the union bar-joy now is less solid, but there is still a union firm.

If you are a rude pilot, maybe not a tuning for you.

Replace the cap with a single screw, connect the joy and proves that everything works properly. Then put the remaining screws.

You have gained about 5 cm and more precision.

In my case it's a temporary solution. I plan to use aluminum tubing for a greater extension of about 15 cm. It is a very simple work that the hose that goes down to the base of the joy only have 3 or 4 wires.

Enjoy. :thumbup:

Sorry, my English is terrible. I do not understand your question. You mean this?

That's why you need an additional tube. By length and robustness.

nice :) Drop a line when you're done with the extension :)

Of course. I am looking tube of 15.7 mm and a good adhesive.

Greetings.

edit: Here is a hard extension:

Thanks to the op, I have applied the extension mod in 5 minutes after receiving my used G940. I'll use this stick as my primary now and have shelved the Warthog/Saitek Combat Rudders setup for now.

Sorry for offtopic. Do you know, is it real to use the g940 throttle with another joystick? Will it work as standalone and how should I conect it to pc?

You can use the throttle but it has to be plugged into the joystick.
