Thrustmaster® HOTAS Magnetic Base and F-16C Viper™ HOTAS Add-On Grip.

I just wish they would stop fickin around and bring out a new F-16 throttle.

I cant believe that companies are still brining out sticks WITHOUT force sensing !!! come on X65f has it but I think they stopped making them !!!

Gosh, unanimously negative.
There I was looking around for a replacement for my Saitek X52 Pro……:(

Waste of money in my opinion.
The only reason this is out there is for people that want a Hornet stick instead of a Warthog - you have to build it yourself unless you want the two grips. Why they didn’t just release a full Hornet stick is beyond me…

I bought a TM Warthog stick in late February which is essentially the same thing. I’m very happy with it, especially after modding the springs to make it easier on my wrist.

isn’t this the same old base and stick but sold separately? The upside is that you can now buy the grip for your Warthog or Falcon (still not sure what’s with the Viper), and buy a Virpil base, but I do wish to see a good quality Falcon throttle from anyone.

I wish they’d remake the Cougar with the same quality as the Warthog with how popular Falcon is on top the fact DCS has an F-16 module now. At least the throttle for falcons sake.

I second this comment. Just a money grab by thrust masters with 0 added value. trying to get the super enthusiast to make another purchase. How about they actual make something new like a throttle.

That’s what I was saying, they need to redo the Cougar throttle with today’s quality.

I wish Logitech would stop fickin around and bring out a new force sensing stick, maybe an X66. Like the X65F, but split in two devices (like the X56), with the POV hat/pickle layout from the X56 and maybe with a two stage trigger and a third position for the thumb slider. That would be super awesome, especially if the price stays below 450 bucks.
And maybe an alternate stick base without force sensing, so it’s possible to switch between force-sensing and normal operation.

“force-sensing and normal operation.”
I thought force sensing was normal operation ?
surely the days of the “sloppy joe” stick are long gone in modern RL???

I have the X65F and just use JG and
vJoy to split it up in 2 devices so all the additional hat and buttons on the throttle are DX accessible in BMS as wellGesendet von meinem SM-G930F mit Tapatalk

Does JG also allow using the microstick without having to mess with the registry?

Yes.
Make sure in HOTAS Cougar Control Panel window that the microstick x and y axis are programmed in such a way that in the HOTAS Cougar Viewer window they appear as S1 and S2 (Slider 1 and Slider 2).
Then, after installing vJoy and JGremlin, you’ll see that in JGremlin both your microstick axis will recognized automatically and correctly!
If your TQS has been modded (mine with R4ley USB standalone mod) then it is even easier, because the microstick axis do not need to be programmed by the driver anymore, and will work great instantly in JGremlin.
Test if microstick X and Y inputs are output at sliders S1 and S2:
Program the correct windows axis to the microstick x and y until it outputs as S1 and S2 (picture not correct, just trial and error):

TM is like a lot of company’s that fall victim to their success and lack of competition they dont feel the need to take a next step they are going to see that company’s like VKB / Virpil / are going to do to them what Honda did to GM once you loose market share the game is over your financial future cant live on who you used top be.
