Yes, I'm a ham fisted idiot!!!

 

I had a short extension fitted to my TM Warthog Joystick. After purchasing the DCS F16 I moved the stick to the side of my chair for a more realistic position. I also decided to remove a 12cm extension I had fitted for the past couple of years. The extension was very tight and without thinking I just twisted and twisted until there was a bit of a crack and the whole stick started rotating in its base. I had broken the mechanism which held the large 'knob' in the base of the stick. After much cursing and swearing and self flagellation I took the base apart and realised it was beyond repair.

 

A quick visit to Amazon and a new stick arrived the next day - thank heavens for modern shopping methods.

 

Anyway, I now have a perfectly serviceable Warthog stick but no base upon which to mount it. I've seen that there are some other bases available but I was wondering if there are any out there that would give the stick a realistic F16 feel, ie the force sensing option?

 

Any info would be much appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

WB.

Mighty pricey, though. According to Wags perfect for the DCS: F-16C.

Before that, try and start a wtb Warthog base thread in the hardware sales forum. I have the fssb R3 (which is great) and thus have the Warthog base laying around collecting dust. I cant be the only one with a spare Warthog base.
