Hello,

I use the T-flight-stick-X from Thrusmaster for different simulators (including orbiter).
Now, the slider has some sort of malfunction. The output value "wobbles" from 0 til 100 and is located only a short time in the actual Postion. :(
I once screwed on to see if the repair is as easy as with regular brushes (which I would have expected, because this is an obvious, simple and well-functioning system for rotary position sensors) and those I once already repaired by myself by bendoing the brushes to the sensor, wich worked and sloved a similar malfunction.
But in there there was a small black box, lloking similar to a servo wich seemed to be the rotation sensor for the slider. Can I somehow fix it by myself?
Thanks in advance!

Hi HAL9001. I hope you have fixed the slider over so many years. I couldn't help you, however I have the same joystick and would like to use it with the Orbiter. How do you use it with the Orbiter? Mapping, programming, some preset? I'd appreciate if you share your method and/or your preset. Thank you and kind regards.
