    I think itd also be a very cool idea for future modification to add a USB C connector for a modular cable

    My joystick is a little loose about +- 20 degrees left-right when pulling back. You think I need to tighten the spring base?

    • @captainranj2234
      @captainranj2234  3 года назад

      you can open up the spring base box and check if it's the spring tension issue or something else.. maybe the box is loose. tighten the screws it's may help.

    Cable in my stick is also not clamped properly. I can push the cable into the base with almost no resistance :) However I'm not gonna open it up just for that as it may impact the warranty?

    • @captainranj2234
      @captainranj2234  3 года назад +1

      Open it up without making any visible damage to the screws. It will not impact warranty. Also there is no screw under the serial number label so as long as that isn't damaged no it will not make any impact on the o your warranty.

    Hi, I dessasembled the spring box so I can take out the spring and have the joystick lighter. But then I thought I would break smth. so I squeezed the Box to its position and let the 4 screws not whole tighten up maybe there were some that are more tighter than others. And when I assembled it my dad came in and said" That thing is surely broken kid" I have wanted to prove him wrong but then when I connected it, it was central ("JoyStick") but the imput has shown to the right a little like one or two whole cm on the screen. I followed instructions on thrustmaster but hasn't helped.. You have a idea? I also recalibrate it in Windows but whenever I go right in Msfs or ets2 ingame it's fully right, on the joystick I can turn 2 cm along and don't know what to do now

    I can't really see the point in replacing all that plug wiring and risk damaging something in the process - would have been far simpler and safer to just reattach that single wire - but each to their own.

      The usb replacement was due to inferior quality cable used by TM. I changed it to a thicker and quality cable.

    I recently encountered a prob with the sidestick where the POV Hat switch deviated to the left. (Physically the button is in neutral position). But when i opened the control panel, the POV Hat switch indicated as if it was tilted to the left. when i tilted the button to the right, the control panel showed the POV switch in neutral position, whejn i released it, it turned back to the left. how do i solve this?

      Do u mean the pic hat switch has left button activated at all times? Tilted would mean hardware failure.

    Does your throttle lever move a little left and right? Mine is a bit loose.

    • @captainranj2234
      @captainranj2234  3 года назад

      you mean the tca quadrant throttle? no it should only nice up and down. not left and right. if so then use the joining pin included in the box and tighten the screw at the back to make firm.

    • @captainranj2234
      @captainranj2234  3 года назад

      if ur taking about the throttle on the sidestick then yes they all have a slight movement. its normal as its a sliding potentiometer like a crossfade pot on dj kits. it's normal to have a slight play.

    • @captainranj2234
      @captainranj2234  3 года назад

      use a program called Diview. then add dead zones and calibrate. whatever you save on diview gets saved in Windows controller config.

      This video also clearly shows Z axis twitch when moving X/Y around. There have been posts on here and Reddit about how to repair this by a method not shown here. Check this: www.reddit.com/r/flightsim/comments/hhqq3v/ysk_the_tca_airbus_sidestick_still_has_the_yaw/?

I tried it on a different computer and with a different game Elite Dangerous still same problem. Everything works except POV and Trigger ..Red ..Buttons . So probably a manufacturing defect.

      U sure it the throttle and not rudder? If in warranty send TM and email. U can try Diview and configure it.

      You can fix that yourself. Nocturnal simulations has a repair video for the dodgy Z-axis. Takes about 30 minutes.
