BMGZ06 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I am not super picky about the length as I think anything will be better than nothing. I would need the longer cable that works with it of course. I ordered a green spring from sahaj 2 weeks ago and it is stuck in customs and there is no way of getting it out. Was told by USPS that it may not even clear because it is from Poland and that is a red flag of some sort for some reason. When I ordered my MFG rudder pedals they got here in 4 days last week and cleared customs in an hour so clearly there is something to where it originates from. SO I only want to buy from someone in the U.S. to avoid this issue again.

BuzzU Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I ordered the green spring and it took a while but I got it. You have me thinking now because i'm ready to order another one. It's 10 days later now. Did you get the spring? Maybe it's time to try an extension. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought on Sunday and showed up at my house today. https://www.ebay.com/itm/184202567213 Let us know how it works out. That spring it comes with is 4X stronger than the stock spring. That seems pretty stiff. I wonder if they're trying to make it feel as stiff as the stock setup? Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they're trying to make it feel as stiff as the stock setup? Hey I just got my internet back after 3 days but I did get the spring but it took 11 days to clear customs for some reason. I was thinking I may order a Virpil base instead but shipping is rough from them as well. I did try the green spring out and honestly I am not seeing anymore precision or control. I got it to help with AAR but the gimbal in the Warthog just isnt smooth enough I think or at least mine isnt. I get a lot of resistance still with the green spring and the lack of linear input feel is still there.

I fly mostly helo's Ya I would buy the warbrd or T50 if I had confidence that I would actually get it now but customs is taking their time with things now it looks like. Also Virpil is not really able to give firm ship dates with my communication I had with them. I think they are getting hammered just like everyone else with getting things they need.
