norbot Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 I'm using a TM-Warthog stick with a VPC WarBRD base. I also bought a 50 mm VPC flightstick extension. The problem is, it has a solid connector. I would like to solder a flexible connecting cable, just like the ones in the attached image. Can anyone tell, where I can purchase the plug and jack and what designation of parts I should be looking for? I suppose it's a 5 pin mini DIN connector. Is that correct?
JoeyJoJoJunior Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 I needed the same part a while back and all the ones I found on part sites had too wide a flange. I ended up buying flangeless connector and using heatshrink for a friction fit. You're right, it is a 5 pin mini DIN. You could try contacting Thrustmaster. This site has a parts list for Cougar parts, and I think it has what you need: http://www.cougar.flyfoxy.com/warranty_parts.php Part 32 5 pin connector F16-32 Looks like the site sells them as well. i7 6700k @ 4.6, Gigabyte Z170X-UD3, 32GB DDR4 2666, GTX 1070, Rift S | MS Sidewinder FFB2 w/ TM F-22 Pro Grip, TM TWCS Throttle, VKB T-Rudder Mk.

norbot Posted February 28, 2020 Author Posted February 28, 2020 Just purchased the mini DIN connecting cable from Thrustmaster (http://support.thrustmaster.com) for € 8,93. Very fast and nice support. :thumbup:
