you can adjust the hood cam to look more like cockpit cam if you have a separate dash and can pull your monitor to the front edge of your base

in full AB just above the deck...it takes six seconds for the F-18 to catch up to its own cannon burst

snow finally feels grippier, like how the players from sweden and finland always claimed it does

cant get over just how incredible this looks and feels

ive officially left thrustmaster when it comes to sim racing... do you mind if i sit here please?

after 8yrs supporting the thrustmaster ecosystem in racing, it's time to end the relationship

i started out with the most basic wheel and pedal set from TM, moved onto the TM 248, TM 300, and finally the T818 direct drive... and while it is a great direct drive servo with just the right amount of nM... the fact that aftermarket wheels cannot be used with the new quick release adapter (unless you pull out the motherboard from a TM wheel and hook the wires up to the new adapter)combined with the poorly designed 4pin power cable that is notorious for wiggling it's way loose mid turn, resetting the servo...

im sad to say that for the racing side at least... i will be moving on.

a replacement 4pin connector that is only made by TM out of warrenty plus shipping costs is about a third of the price of a new DD servo that is compatible with any aftermarket wheels, has the same nM, and isn't plagued by poor power cable designs

so instead of buying this expensive cable again, I'm going to move onto another good brand with more to offer in sim racing

thanks for the good times TM... I'll keep you for your flight sticks though

how to have full axis and button control connecting the thrustmaster AVA extension to the moza AB9. there are two protruding nubs that serve only one purpose... prob to try and recoup some of the money TM lost after they realized their flight stick would connect and work without an adapter.

TM does not play well with others, the specific changes to the male and female ends of the AVA extension make it only useful to the AVA base... but TM has to understand that their premium products should be adaptable to other ecosystems like every other company is... so simply grind down flat the two nubs highlighted in blue with a dremel after you remove the two screws and piece to be ground
