TomVR Posted August 17, 2023 Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Hi, I'm working on this open source 3d printable gimbal which plans to support TM grips natively (Files available now on our github: https://github.com/RightRudderLeftStick/OpenSource-VeryBigStick ) I want to track down a TM grip that we can validate with. Something that fits the Warthog/F-18/cougar/virpil standard with the M36x2 threaded mount and PS/2 style connector. As we develop the electrical plans and need a grip to prototype with. Anything that works regardless of cosmetic condition would be great, so in theory even an old cougar would work, but the best would be a warthog since it has the most inputs to test against. This will be funded by our patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RightRudderLeftStick In theory one with a broken bottom neck would work, since we actually don't need to use it, just to test the electrical and buttons.

MAXsenna Posted August 17, 2023 Posted August 17, 2023 You could order some 3d printed ones, if an original can't be acquired. Just a small comment, that you're probably already aware of.The connector is 5 pin Mini-DIN, NOT a PS/2 connector, which has 6 pins.I only mentionen this for users that might not know the difference.And, if anyone knows where I can find a male 5 pin Mini-DIN, for chassis mount, like they have in the TM grips, I'd be very happy. I've been looking all over for them, but can only find the female ones. Obviously I found and bought for cable mount, so I can "fit" those, but I'd rather get the real deal.Cheers!

Antigonefs Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 I have a Thrustmaster hotas stick + throttle. They're brand new looking, let me know if you're interested. 1
TomVR Posted October 19, 2023 Author Posted October 19, 2023 Would you sell me just the grip? I don't need a throttle for this project.
MAXsenna Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Would you sell me just the grip? I don't need a throttle for this project.Are you just looking for the electronics for testing the buttons and hats? Or do you need the actually grip to fit test? Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
Antigonefs Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Hi Tom, yeah only the grip would be alright. Im from EU (netherlands) so i'm unsure how much the shipping would cost.
