Thrustmaster repair?
« on: June 21, 2014, 04:33:57 PM »
I have a warthog that has started giving me problems, one button on the joystick has stopped work and one of the hats on the throttle has a dead spot so the view is gone. I've looked on the Thrustmaster site for repair options and don't see an official option. Anyone have a similar experience and how did you solve it?

You might want to call TM directly and see what you get. They would much rather be on the phone than handle via email.

I think they use same hardware for hats as the cougar in the Warthog.
My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.

Thanks for the advice. I finally broke down and bought a new stick.
