guitarxe Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I want to get an extension for my TM Warthog for two reasons. One is that I want to put the stick closer to my knees using amount like the FoxxMount. Two is that I read that have a longer stick will make it more precise. However I am unsure of what length extension I need? Has anyone tried different ones and can provide some perspective? I don't want to go overboard with the length because then I know that the springs won't be able to really do their job with centering properly.

I don't want to go overboard with the length because then I know that the springs won't be able to really do their job with centering properly.I have 2x20cm. That's pretty long, and the deflection is pretty radical, so I have reduced it.Using the blue spring from Sahaj hat could have been somewhat stiffer.One draw back is I have to place the stick further away from me. Would have worked better if the extensions were curved.My suggestion would be to measure some sticks in various lengths, and tape them to the grip, and just test what's suitable for you. 20cm will probably be just fine.

BuzzU Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I use a 10CM (4") and it feels just right with the default black spring. More precise and not so stiff. 1 Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
