rrohde Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 It has a center detent like the #30 cams, correct, but also a slightly different shape which does the trick for the TMW grip. There is no need to use the W cam, however. I use my 2 #10 cams with my Gunfighter Pro, and compensate with heavier springs. Works just as well, and I prefer the soft center for flying anyway.

WindyTX Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Ok I got my pro and regular set up like many here I had the flashing red but it seemed to fix itself. I hit load for the profile, set gives me an error, but the load makes the stick work anyway. 1 question all my Warthog button assignments are all over the place now I guess as I have to redo the profile on DCS it's kinda irelavant but the trigger is 8 iso 1. Could the profile have not made them the same numbers as normal. Or did I just mess up the load so it's my mess up and not the profile.?

rrohde Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Yeah, the button assignment is kinda strange for the TMW grip, however, you didn't mess up - that's how it is. I hope that maybe a future revision could tidy that up - until then, everything works for now. I can request that Alex, the software guru over at VKB HQ look into that. :) PC: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | MSI Suprim GeForce 3090 TI | ASUS Prime X570-P | 128GB DDR4 3600 RAM | 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD | Win10 Pro 64bit Gear: HP Reverb G2 | JetPad FSE | VKB Gunfighter Pro Mk.III w/ MCG Ultimate VKBcontrollers.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rainer. I went with the #10 cams with a #40 spring on pitch and #30 spring on roll with some damping dialed in on both (extension w/Warthog grip). It definitely doesn't return to center, but i'm not worried about that. Honestly, I think everything will feel much better with the lighter MCG when it's available. i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 32gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Valve Index Brunner CLS-E w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron886 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I've noticed that the 'W' cam is described as being designed to compensate for the added weight of the Warthog grip in the pitch axis, but how does it do this? Is it more of a center detent, or just thicker to provide more spring tension? How does its detent compare to that of the #10 and #30 cams? It does add a noticeable center, but it feels like a cross between W and 30. 30 is just too much for me, it's like going back to the original Warthog base! W, however, feels just about right.

Dojo Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) I will make another video how to replace springs. I appreciate the gesture, Absolut79. But does this mean there wasn't an official document or instruction somewhere? I see a number of items for the older bases (e.g. Gladiator). The insert that comes with the stick seems to point to something that doesn't exist. I could "figure it out", but I'd rather follow an official process.
