gonzman Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 Just got this one yesterday and have a question about the sensor select switch, the lovely one with the nice click sound, pushing it left or right seems to click it back after a press, but up/down it seems to get "stuck" and I have to push it back into the center, basically the 7 and 9 buttons on this stick are "sticky" but the 8 and 10 automatically re-center, the press button works perfectly. :helpsmilie: Is this working as intended? I assume so but it's hard to get used to, I've googled this a bit but can't seem to find an answer.
Cigar Bear Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 Howdy Gonzman, I've had mine since it released and have not had that issue. up and down are just as clicky as the rest of the directions. Might want to put a call into TM on this one. CB
randomTOTEN Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 That's not how mine works. Sorry to hear about that, hopefully TM can give you some help.
gonzman Posted June 3, 2020 Author Posted June 3, 2020 Damn, I'll contact thrustmaster about this, I suspect the switch is faulty and hopefully the store I got it from has one there to swap it over for.
gonzman Posted June 4, 2020 Author Posted June 4, 2020 Thanks for your input guys, I took it back to the retailer and they replaced it on the spot, new one works perfectly! I guess that QC Passed sticker didn't really mean anything on the old unit, ah well. Thanks again.
InvalidFace Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) I had this same problem with mine straight out of the box few months ago, my sensor select down was like this and the weapon select forward and aft was the same. I sent it back and got a replacement through the retailer Edited June 6, 2020 by InvalidFace

VFA41_Hedgehog Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 Late to the discussion, but similar experience with TM Hornet Grip. First one: trim hat defective. Stuck in 'left down' position when not touching it. Returned to Amazon retailer for replacement. Second one: thumb switch sticks in fwd position when not touching it. Returned to TM support. Still waiting. VFA-41 Black Aces www.vfa-41.com
