Hi kids!

Somehow my pinky switch of the Warthog throttle is broken.

If I try to move it I feel the whole inside part of the switch moving...

 

I suspect my 8 years old was playing and broke it but I can't prove it so , it's ok. I now have a 64 thousand positions switch XD.

 

Is there anyone who managed to replace it? Is it complicated?

 

I googled a bit but didn't really find *clear* instructions...

 

Thanks and sorry if it's a duplicated topic.

I replaced the pinky on my Warthog throttle. You'll need a good soldering iron with a small tip, a "helping hand stand", I needed a magnifier glass. The whole procedure needed like 10 minutes.

 

Take a look at a forum post here:

Easy as shit to replace mate can order the switch of Ebay if ya need one.    

 

I advise you to not cheap out and buy a good switch one that will last you 10 years on average, that will give you 1m Flips/clicks of the switch I myself had to replace this switch an many more lol.

 

I work on joysticks as a side project, you guys should see the Logitech G940 set I am working on at this time.  

 

The Force Feedback on this device is amazing the only issue was it had a problem eating the plastic cogs they used, I have 3d Printed some stronger replacements which I am 100% wont do as the others did would like to do them in a metal.

 

Truth be told when I get it working Perfectly I think I might use it over my other Gear which is so strange because I have the Tarus setup and just got New TPR pedals.
