Wouldn't put it past them to say 'Well, you have a working one now'!

Sorry I didn't see this sooner! Beach, I live in Charlotte and also have a Warthog if you need any additional testing.

Just shoot me a PM if I can help.

Thanks,
Doug

smile Whoops..! Yeah..that would have been great Doug! Oh well, Kramer has been awesome about helping me out.

I heard from TM support today - they are finally agreeing to send me a new stick (once they receive my old one from Kramer). It will ship from France - so I don't know how long it will take to get here. I'm relieved that there appears to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks to Kramer and all the helpful members that have offered advice, assistance, and support!

Regards,
BeachAV8R

Now, are they going to repay you the money you spent in shipping?

Why ship from France? Isn't Canada closer?

Good news. Received my new HOTAS Warthog stick (and base) today from France. Once they actually got the process rolling the replacement was fairly quick. Just getting to that point was severely frustrating though. I plan to send in all of my shipping costs to see what gets reimbursed. I removed Kramer's stick that he was loaning me (thanks, thanks, thanks!!) and the new stick was instantly recognized and works perfectly (fingers crossed).

I'll be shipping Kramer's stick back to him tomorrow. Thanks to the community for all the suggestions, and especially Kramer for loaning me his stick, verifying my stick was dead, and shipping it up to Canada for me. That went above and beyond. Thanks also from the other members who offered me their sticks as well..you guys are great.

Here's to (hopefully) lots of happy Warthogging...
