Thustmaster Cougar HOTAS
« on: August 02, 2011, 02:47:23 PM »
Does anyone know where I can find one? I've looked in several places and have run into the same problem: SOLD OUT.  :mad:
I'm starting to wonder if production has been stopped/canceled. The only one I've been able to track down sells for around $220.00 and that seems a little high to be as old a stick as it is. I really don't know though as I have only found the one ($220.00) to compare it to!

Need some help,

If he doesn't have his I think Slash might still have his available also.

As for production on the Cougar...they don't make them anymore and haven't for over a year or so now. I think they stopped production about the time they released the information on the Warthog which would have been in late 2009 or so.

Hummmm.......a little silly of them seems to me. I know everyone would like a Warthog, but to justify a $400.00+ expense for a game, that also seems a little over the top. Oh well.....
BTW, how are you liking your Warthog?

LOVE IT! Especially since I didn't have to pay for it; but if I had the opportunity to try one out I would do so and then save up the coin for it. I know a few guys in the Texas area that have them. One of them in Gunslinger (from CAF) who had a great profile for AH on the Cougarworld site.

Here is what he did with his Cougar.

I have one on Ebay for $100 - actually the Cougar is free if you want it with the U2 NXT mod w/ hall sensors.

I would have picked that one up without question just to make a box with it.
