jrsteensen Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Anybody have any idea how to fix? The microstick on my warthog (2XXX series serial number) has never worked since the day I got it. I'm tired of making work arounds. How do I fixed this blinking thing? I've updated firmware several times. OpenHornet F/A-18C 1:1 SimPit Website :: DCS Thread Link :: Discord :: Github ::
tjhowse Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Return it under warranty. I didn't have that option when my slew stick failed, so I opened my throttle up and soldered a loose wire back on.

Id rather not ship it back, especially since I no longer have the original packaging for it. (Tossed it in a move about 8 months ago.) Just need to get replacement parts and find out if there are any gotchas in the process. (I don't have a problem soldering SMD components if required.)

tjhowse Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I would disassemble the right quadrant of the throttle and have a peek inside. It sounds like one of the wires might've come off, it should be pretty easy to discover if that's the issue.

I'll try it out next weekend and report back. OpenHornet F/A-18C 1:1 SimPit Website :: DCS Thread Link :: Discord :: Github ::
