weeb Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Can someone do me a favour.? I'm making a joystick mount for my TM Hotas and I downloaded the plates dimensions template from TM but their measurements don't appear to be the same as mine. Have the joysticks dimensions changed since the template was made?. Can someone please measure their base plate, length and breadth, and the 4 holes in the middle of the plate centre to centre and let me know what you get. I think I must be going mad here. My dimensions are completely different from the attached. :joystick: Cheers weeb Windows 7 64 Home Premium, i5 3570K (3.4 @ 4.4GHz), Asus P8Z77-V LX, 16GB dual channel 1600 ram, EVGA Nvidia GTX980ti, 240 GB OCZ SSD, 3 TB Raptor, Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas and Throttle, Saitek Pro Combat Rudder pedals.
PureEvil Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 why not to measure the base you have and make the mount based on that? STEAM asus p8z68-v gen3, 2600k@4,5ghz(w/c), 16gb, 1080ti(w/c), ch fighterstick/gvl224-4000-8, ch pro throttle, Oculus Rift CV1+Touch, thrustmaster tx
weeb Posted February 21, 2014 Author Posted February 21, 2014 I have done Evil and the dimensions are different. I was thinking for example say someone asks someone else to make a mount for them and they use the TM template, it aint gonna fit. I'll give TM a bell and see what they say.

PureEvil Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 yeah, i see your point. maybe the1 from TM is just a conversion from an inch to mm? how far off the dimensions are from what you've got?

Hansolo Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 These are my measurements which I sent to DM a while back: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hiugklk14hrqtrd/TMWH%20base%20dimensions.rar Cheers Hans 132nd Virtual Wing homepage & 132nd Virtual Wing YouTube channel My DCS-BIOS sketches & Cockpit Album
weeb Posted February 21, 2014 Author Posted February 21, 2014 Cheers Hans, that's what I was looking for. I realize now what I have done. I feel really stupid now, but I printed TM's stencil off, and they had designed it in landscape so it default printed in landscape not portrait. I was having a blonde moment. Thanks to both of you, matter is resolved.
