sharkfin61 Posted July 21 Posted July 21 (edited) Did anyone stumble upon a Warthog stick extension, resembling the "real" shape of the A-10C's controls, to fit on the TM AVA base? Doesn't matter if 3D printed or made from metal. Thank you.

_Hoss Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Go to the Thrustmaster website, they have two different extensions for sale now. A straight one like you are looking for with 0 -30 degree offset, and a curved one.. SimFab also makes three different lengths for the Thrustmaster sticks. You can find extensions on ebay too, that's where I got my 100 mm straight, and 200 curved extension... Sempre Fortis
sharkfin61 Posted July 22 Author Posted July 22 Thanks to both of you Nightdare and _Hoss. @Nightdare, if I had it manufactured as a single product by my needs, I'm sure, I would cost me a fortune over here in ole' Europe (expec. with the "wonderful" tarrifs nowadays ). But a very interesting website, indeed. @_HossUnfortunately the Thrustmaster extensions are not really what I am looking for. I already fly with a straight 4" extension from Sahaii, but I had to bring the Warthog base to level with a plastic tube. On the other hand, the long extensioon seems to be rather for choppers. Your's _Hoss looks very close to what I'm looking for (200mm curved). Will take my stroll on ebay now. Loads do it on the fly!

sharkfin61 Posted Friday at 02:03 PM Author Posted Friday at 02:03 PM (edited) Received it yesterday, test-installed fitted lika a glove. Now next will be the AVA. 1a quality for now, as I cannot test it in flight. Very pleasant wiring and materials. Regarding the price tag, the 52 GBP ebay item ended as a ~100€ buy, due to taxes and shipping (just as an info for other buyers). Again, thank you @Nightdare and @_Hoss for pointing me to it.
