Best setup possible
Got the entire wheel stand pro and just got the adaptor. It is a game changer to get rid of the wide base on the joystick. Would recommend to anyone and very easy to install.
nice setup
Ive had the wheelstand pro for the warthog setup for almost 2 years now and honestly prefer this over my older Obutto cockpit. This particular mount here fits my warthog stick perfectly; the only thing I dont really like about it is the fact the mount is square and not round like the base is. This leaves the board exposed to the elements and thats the only reason why I give it 4 stars. Now I can only wish they would make an adapter plate for other joysticks on the market as well; I had to fabricate my own mount for my Virpil T-50CM2 and warbrd base. I have both these joysticks attached to my setup as I write this and absolutely dont regret buying this.
Excellent option for center-stick mounting
This mount is perfect for a minimalist center-stick setup. If you plan to use an extension, you will likely need to cut some length off of the tube to allow the stick to sit low enough. Now what would be really cool is to use that same piece of tubing to actually build the extension itself... hmm...
As others mentioned, I do wish that the bottom plate was round because having the gimbal electronics exposed made me nervous. I ended up 3D printing a protective cover for the base of the gimbal so I didn't have to worry about anything getting bumped or shorted.
Warthog Joystick direct mount without base.
Excellent Fit and comfort. Ditch the factory base plate and mount the base directly to this part. Holes match up perfectly. This is a must have for mounting the stick between your legs. This is way more comfortable and adjustable without the factory base plate in the way.
Sweet upgrade to my flight rig!
I expanded a Warthog Pro system to a Warthog Super about a month ago...getting this adapter to move my Warthog Joystick to the middle position was the final step in creating s realistic setup for my flight rig. I use DCS almost exclusively now flying the F-18 Hornet and P-51 Mustang that both have the center joystick position...IT IS AWESOME. As expected, the build quality is top-notch and super solid just like the rest of the Wheel Stand Pro line. I can't recommend this product more highly!
Overall great!
The build quality of the product is great just like the stand. I bought originally the wheel pro stand for the thrustmaster warthog, which having the giant plate to put stuff on wasn't a good fit for me. I researched and saw they had a mount for just the stick and decided that would be much less obtrusive since i like a center mounted stick position between my legs...much more natural. A few qualms I have overall is the mounting plate should be rounded like the warthog bottom so as not to expose the electronics inside the base and the fact its not an option (at least it wasn't when I purchased) when you buy the wheel stand pro specifically made for the warthog. I would have preferred this option much more than having to buy two sets of equipment basically. YMMV but this is way better if you just want a stick mount that can be centered and not have to modify and office chair.
X Parts Joystick Adpater JS review
Built from the same quality material as the Wheel Stand Pro itself. I must agree with the other reviews of this product, however, the plate should be cut round as oppose to square allowing for the concealment and protection of the stick's electronics located in the Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog stick's base. Other than that, great product and happy to have it available.
TM Warthog adaptor plate
Feels like same quality as original Wheel Stand pole + adaptor. Good quality components, fits perfectly on both the wheel stand and the Warthog stick.
My only complaint is that the plate isn't round and doesn't close up the bottom of the Warthog. I had to cut a round piece of cardboard and sandwich it between the plate and the stick.
Warthog Joystick Adspter
Good quality. Maybe cu more realistic and comfortable to use, increasing immersion. Would prefer that the plate was round and same diameter as base of the Warthog joystick, to keep components in the base dust-free. Would suggest making it an option for purchase on the main Wherldysnd website. Overall, an excellent product for sim pilots.
Excellent Quality
This adapter is the ideal solution for mounting the warthog tm joystick in the center position and should probably be added as an option to the original order system to avoid customers having to order separately. I only wish that it was slightly shorter in length to accommodate stick extensions (common lengths 7.5 - 15 cm), but a hack saw can easily fix this issue if you need a few cm of reduced height. WPS builds robust and flexible modular solutions that meet most mission requirements.
