SC86 Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 I'm sorry, I know I have seen this topic before, but cannot easily find it. I am not loving the stiffness of the Warthog Joystick, except for it going back to centre. I have seen some threads about getting softer springs from third parties or other sources. I know Thrustmaster doesn't have them, though they would make a killing I think. Can anybody tell me where to might be able to get one? Be best if the company is Canadian as I live here. Thanks!

rob10 Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 I got the green spring from sahaj. No problems getting it shipped to Canada (and shipping wasn't ridiculous IIRC). Works great.
Lange_666 Posted May 2, 2020 Posted May 2, 2020 Due to the Covid-19 virus Sahaj mentioned shipping prices have gone up (temporally). Ouside Europe it's 22€ atm which is more then half the price of a spring. Win11 Pro 64-bit, Ryzen 5800X3D, Corsair H115i, Gigabyte X570S UD, EVGA 3080Ti XC3 Ultra 12GB, 64 GB DDR4 G.Skill 3600.

Almost destroyed my shoulder learning to AAR with the stock spring, much more reasonable with the green spring.
GhastlyTT Posted May 3, 2020 Posted May 3, 2020 If anyone has a green spring they'd like to trade for cash that doesn't cost $30 usd to ship, please PM me.
DisguisedGerbil Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) I ordered the Green Spring and made a quick video about it - have a look. You might also get a little heads up what can go wrong when opening the joystick (not directly linked to the spring). -Unboxing -Comparison -Installation (with an iron saw twist) -DCS aerial refuel test and comparison Click the image for the video - all the comments, questions and feedback are welcome!
