If you aren't doing this all the time, it's difficult to remember the axis assignments.

Added to the MiGPit in 2020. By late 2023 the Warthog stick developed a loose wire / contact somewhere in the stick, resulting in random control inputs and view changes. A little bit annoying, especially on finals. I repurposed the Warthog throttle as a lighting (and other) control panel on the right side of my 'pit, so it lives on for a few years more.

Some people have talked about the 1mm play in the joystick centre position as being a flaw. To my style of flying it's a bonus feature!

Advice about the paint on HOTAS and metal controllers in general.

Thrustmaster AVA
With the AVA line Thrustmaster have re-established themselves as top tier HOTAS manufacturers. The removal of the 'stiction' prone plasric gimbal which has been the bane of the Warthog since 2010, and the adoption of variable cams and springs on an all metal mechanism puts them squarely back in the game for hard core sim fans.

The Mark II model had coloured LED's on the left which indicated status of rocker switches - very neat!
