A $150 force-sensor mod? Now that’s something I could’ve used earlier!
Do note that they have exceedingly tight tolerances to implement properly and require some really sturdy materials to not fatigue over repeated use, so I’ll be impressed if you can pull off that kind of precision for $150 apiece.
If, however, you make a standalone stick base version that Warthog users can easily switch over to, you’re also going to make a lot of sales coming from the Star Citizen and Elite: Dangerous communities alongside the BMS fanbase here. Trust me on that - space sims work great with force-sensing!

Hey Miles,
I love your Hall mods. I’ve been working to source MFD screens for the Thrustmaster MFDs. It should just be a matter of getting square TFTs, a control board, and 3d-printing a case. It’s been a bit of a pain to source though. Touch screen overlays are dirt cheap and easy as well. Figure this would be an easy and worthwhile project if you have interest and time to take over.Thanks for your contributions to the community.

MFD with video or ICP with DED?

I see Miles has a site for selling his sim mods, but it not functional for taking orders yet. I’d like to get a few items there myself.

He has a TQS PCB replacement too, but I’m not sure it’s for the current TQS as it appears to be the plastic F22pro TQS in the pictures. Miles needs to be specific if it works for the metal and latest version of the TQS. It wouldn’t take much to retool it for the metal TQS I would think.

You mean the one in the bottom? That’s the old plastic TQS that could connect with the FLCS and F22Pro. I think there was only ever 1 version of the classic TQS.
Unless he’s hiding the key matrix on the bottom, the PCB is largely there to hold the Arduino Pro Micro in place (the little thing in the middle).

I will order the hall mods as soon as its working.
