Hotas Cougar main PCB

Checking TQS PCB is not risky at all IF IT IS DISCONNECTED FROM STICK BASE. There are only diodes on it.
Have fun! -

Rik
are you talking about a TQS board or a stick board
Basically which one would you need? -
Its the stick board
-
I’m out
can’t help then, sorry. -
That’s okay. Thanks anyway
-
I fixed a friend’s Cougar with that “not recognised device” message. I checked USB cable and it was defective. You have to unplugged it from PCB and check each cable with a tester.
Give it a try! -
Tried to buy a new USB but without luck
-
Forgot yesterday: have you tried TM support? Maybe the have still PCB’s stick (from TQS they don’t have AFAIK) …
-
Do you have a link?
-
You have to register there. I’ve already bought several spare parts (knobs, hats, gimbals etc.) and they are very cheap and fast in delivery.
-
I’m on my cellphone. I can’t find the email adress. I can only find technical support
-
Thats exactly the right spot to go. There you can register and contact technical support for spare parts.
-
same issue, swapped stick base PCB from spare stick base and works again, so definatly the pcb. Contacted Thrustmaster technical support, they are out of stock of stick PCB’s
-
Same problem with my cougar.
Problem solved replacing capacitor near usb connection on PCB.
You can buy capacitor in normal electronic store. 50 eurocent for 2 capacitors if I remember well.
I hope same for you. Let me know. -
Hallo Tanguy. I bought a new PCB for 5 months ago for 110 dollars…. I tried to buy a new USB-cable from thrustmaster but it didn’t work. Good to hear that it was a help for you. It’s amazing to fly with a Hotas Cougar.

No… I didn’t replace the pcb. I replaced only the capacitor on pcb.
Before try to replace capacitor. I’s very easy.
