Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:30 pmWas having a few axis-spikes and zero response issues with my X-45 the other week, which I thought was odd since it hasn't been that long since I opened up both units to give them a good clean out.
The problem lies however, with my wife's b@stard cat... Needle-like teeth and claws have split the main insulation between the throttle and stick, cutting a few wires in the process.
I'm going to attempt surgery by putting a serial/VGA style connector on the throttle end, and running a much thicker cable up to the plug on the stick end... However, since I'm quite attached to the old '45 I wouldn't mind a complete spare just in case I #### things right up.
If anyone has one sitting unloved in a cupboard after they upgraded to an X-52, please flick me a PM to let me know how much you're after
