It was superglue and the cable is housed in such cheap plastic that it became more a part of the superglue than the cable housing. As super glue does to cheap plastic, it completely bonded to it. I’m sending it back

RE: Warthog Dial
A couple of things you could do -
-
take a soldering iron along a small area of the PCB and see if it’s heat-glue. If so, you should be able to free it by applying some heat.
-
better yet, get a single edged razor blade or #11 X-Acto and free it by cutting along the PCB and not the wire - looks easy enough to scrape the glue from the PCB and not cut the jacket of the wire.
And is it OK to scratch or gouge the PCB or will that cause problems? I think it may be super glue

RE: Warthog Dial
I just received one and the cable for the USB is glued to the PCB. I have pulled as hard as I feel is safe without a significant chance of breaking the cable. I may be able to use something like nail polish remover but am wondering if I should just send it back. Any suggestions?

RE: Resolution problem
it uses my 1080TI where do I have to put off scaling? and how do i get the right resolution if fullscreen brings the resolution down as you could read in previous remaks
Scaling can be adjusted by going to Nvidia CP then go to adjust desktop size and position.
The right resolution for most people is the native resolution of their monitor. Do you want the right resolution to be the native resolution of your monitor or something else?

RE: Resolution problem
Is BMS using your iGPU? And I would turn scaling for the 2D off until you get the correct resolution.

RE: What's up with those rumors
I had to laugh at the guy arguing with Mav-JP, saying he couldnt possibly know whether the BMS FM is accurate or made up….
That reminds me of trying to educate the keyboard warriors on here about, you know, REAL LIFE harriers, and they tried to tell me how they work. HAHA HAHA!!! Go go gadget keyboard.

RE: F-35 status (in BMS) request
Sprey is a hack. He inserts himself into technical evaluations that he lacks knowledge of and has built a following of internet fans that think he has been instrumental in the development and testing of things that he has not. His diatribes on the F-35 & F-15 are mostly B.S. He lacks the understanding of A/C tech since the F-16 was envisioned. He has fooled many people into believing he and Boyd had something to do with its development when all they provided was the theory behind a lightweight single engine inexpensive fighter. I don’t know if he is just ignorant or intentionally trying to get our advanced weapons programs canceled. Seeing his ridiculous attempt to have us halt the F-22 program by claiming it ignores the realities of aerial combat shows he either is a fool or has an agenda. He has said similar things for the worlds most effective A/C. He is very predictable. Every time we begin to develop a new generation fighter he goes into action and spreads B.S. and tries to get it canceled. It has been difficult for me to see all the people spread nonsense about the F-35 but people have a hard time understanding who knows and who doesn’t. The people working on it, testing it and flying it don’t waste their time trying to convince the public and much of it is classified.
I was supposed to go to China Lake and help develop the F-35 but I got out for other reasons. Many of the people I served with did and one of our pilots was the CO of the testing squadron for the F-35B. The difference between what Sprey and the general public claims, and what the people I know say is ridiculous. It’s when I realized that Sprey was either a fool or intentionally lying. For the most part I have stopped responding to people on the internet because they usually think they are always right and know everything even if it is classified. I usually just get a good laugh about it and follow along for the occasional entertainment of it.
