Title: Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog - button 15
Post by: Max on January 03, 2022, 06:13:16 PM

#15 is the red push button atop the left throttle lever. When pushed, it ceases power to the throttle...and somehow wipes out all the assignments to the joystick.

As this gear was recently gifted to me (HUGE shout out to Ramesis!!!  :salute ) I'm not sure how to undo #15 from turning on and off the throttle altogether. Any answers appreciated. Also appreciated would be assignment ideas for the various toggle levers and input options on this bugger.

That kinda sounds like a short circuit to me.   You may have to open the handle and check the wiring to that switch.

In the meantime, there are many switches available to you, and you could just refrain from pushing that button...

Tape a cap, like a little bottle cap, over it until it's fixed.
