Joystick Base Unit Socket Cover

[Toni Carrera]

Hi Fellow Pilots,

 

I have the ThrustMaster HOTAS Warthog units. In relation to the Joystick, I have both the original A-10C & F/A-18C joysticks. I only connect either of the actual joysticks at the point of using DCS World

 

To protect the socket etc while I am not using either joystick, I am looking for some kind of fitted cover, screw on cover, anything to protect the socket. I know someone who has a 3D printer and says he will print one for me, if I supply the printer file.

 

I have no idea in the slightest how to create such a file. So, my question(s) is/are, does anyone know if such a file exists, or, does anyone know if such a thing exists already. Attached is image what I am looking to protect

I'll give printing one a try.  If it comes out I'll post file here.

Modify this nut (for extension) drawing, filling the hole and 3D pring.

An 5/8" PVC tube cap is probable compatible, is the same measure of Gardena connector that people use in the past  for make DIY extension.
