Doomer Junior Member Registered: 11/01/03 Posts: 55	Originally Posted By: Reschke Originally Posted By: TheEngineer On the issue of the Warthog directly, after several weeks testing it now, I feel it is pretty nice (and better than my experience with the Cougar). But I am worried about its gimbals. I am already detecting some slop after on my right aileron axis. Hmmm can't wait to hear about this post NDA time...but am curious in how that would effect just one side and not the other in a ball joint setup. Again I am just curious. And I can't wait to hear what made TheEngineer launch an all out attack towards the flight sim community and to the product he was testing, just 2-3 weeks before the release? TheEngineer: If you truly did test the Warthog, did you report your gimbal issue to the developers?

I have ordered mine and will happily report how I get on with it for those who want to wait. I only wish I could control my planes with the precision of those guys and hope the warthog will help. But if it turns out I am crap I'll still enjoy my hobby :-)

That would be a yeeeeeeeeeeeee NO Nutty, Reschke, Doomer, take it to PMs with TE. Again #3 this thread is for the discussion of the TM Wardhog HOTAS. Please don't make me have to bury it.

Then I wrote a follow-up a few weeks later. We know lots (not everything, admittedly) about its design and features.

Originally Posted By: aRareKindOfMonster [EDIT:] I asked this before and am asking it again; does the T.A.R.G.E.T. software allow to 'zoom' the range of movement IF using a grip extension? Similar to Leo Bodnar's module, that allow for you to tweak the signal. As a longer stick would logically translate into a longer motion needed to cover the same angular motion. I don't think anyone knows the answer to this yet, but when SimHQ has the opportunity to put T.A.R.G.E.T. through it paces I will check this out; I have added the "axis zoom" item to my checklist. _________________________ Team Superhornet Add-on Installation Guide & TSH v4 Manual TSH forums www.twitter.com/SimHQ www.youtube.com/SimHQcom

I have seen some stuff from SimHQ regarding DCS/ED that makes me wonder why they have some sort of control over here, but I could be wrong. _________________________ 6600 @ 2.4, Windows 7 64-bit, 4GB, 8800GT, CH HOTAS, TrackIR 5, Cougar MFD's
