msmith301 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 The roll gimbal in my Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar joystick broke. Can't find a replacement and nobody is selling the FSSB R1 or R2 to replace it with. I already have the throttle system that comes with and the (older) Elite rudder pedals. Problem is all of these can only be used by tying them into the back of the Cougar Joystick. Does anybody know where I can get another Cougar joystick or even a parts to use to fix mine?

Rudel_chw Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Probably the best alternative is to buy a second hand unit, for example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Thrustmaster-HOTAS-Cougar-Flightstick-and-throttle/283795602254?hash=item4213893b4e:g:04UAAOSwChteVXaI If you are a Do-it-yourselfer, you may want to try a 3D printed replacement: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=195464 Good luck For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yeah not looking for a whole set just to fix mine. Will probably do Warthog later on but right now I'm trying to build a flight desk where all my equipment slides into desk and is concealed when not in use. Wife's only concession to allowing me to get back into this ...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
