Krebs20 Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 I am looking to buy a TM Cougar or Warthog stick that is does not have a working base. I would like to have it for a project I am working on. So if anyone has a dead Cougar the are looking to sell please contact me with information. I am planning on doing the mod that PeterP has done with his Cougar. Only I plane to use a Leo Bodnar board to power it. To be clear. I am looking for a TM Cougar or Warthog stick that does not need a working base. As such I'm looking to pay for a non working stick. If you have one that works, but has really bad pots, I will negotiate as it will save some time in the long run. Any other 2 stage joystick I will consider. (x52/G940) Thank you. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Krebs20 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 No. I'll won't tear apart a perfectly good working stick. It will get shelved. I can't afford my old TM back. I wish I could. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Krebs20 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 Has the FCC been everything you wanted? Or do you want your old CH back? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Cali Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 I sold it a month after I got it and bought a CH Fraken Potato. I didn't feel like the real thing. I tried and messed around with it for a month, flying the jet and knowing how it feels spoiled me I guess. I'm happy now my throttle has 2 rotaries on it and has an extra hat switch. Also with it being CH it's rock solid and the programming is great. Looks like we both miss our old sticks...kinda, I got one better after a few months away. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED

Cali Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 I missed mine after a month trying to get the cougar sorted out. Although I have always liked them and always will, just not for me I guess. A moving stick vs non-moving stick in this game is wayyyy different then in real life. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED
PeterP Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Hi Krebs! Don't know If you did already - but to make your search for "parts" for this Dual-MSFFB2 Mod more successful you should place this request also at www.simhq.com. Edited January 17, 2012 by PeterP
Deadman Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 May I suggest you watch eBay for a Thrustmaster FLCS stick they come up often with out the throttle and look the same as the cougar stick. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Thrustmaster-F-16-FLCS-/230734429984?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b8d7ff20 1 https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
Krebs20 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Posted January 23, 2012 Your my savor Deadman. Got one on amazon for 30$. I am no longer looking for parts. Thanks you to all who have helped. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
