My guess is that you would be happier to stick with your modified Cougar since it has the Halls sensors like the Warthog, but probably has a smoother action near the center detent with your gimbal kit. I actually removed the huge center spring from my Warthog joystick (there's a You Tube how-to; very easily done) and utilized the four small inner springs to provide the centering action. Not perfect, but it's much, much easier to make fine aiming adjustments now.

All the control assignments in CoD are re-assignable, so you shouldn't have any trouble reproducing the majority of oft-used commands from 1946 to CoD.

Make sure you join us on ATAG's Teamspeak channel when (and you know you will ) you log into the ATAG Server. As you can readily see, we're a HILARIOUSLY funny group of guys!
You got it Snapper, thanks for the feedback on the Warthog and info on the control mapping in CoD! I certainly would have hate to spend those kind of bucks on the Warthog and found it dissappointing in feel compared to my Cougar. While I was tempted, the reason I was not tempted even more is I just could not imagine getting a stick that actually felt not only as smooth as what I now have, but even better, and this thing has been rock solid and unchanged since I modded it all those years ago. In fact I have hall sensor in the throttle, and even in my Elite rudder pedals as well, just wish I had toe brakes.

Who knows, you may very well see me on your Teamspeak channel before too long, especially once I get this thing actually installed and start messing around with it.

Thanks again,
