Logitech G940 to Virpil Grip Adapter

thingiverse

Had this idea for a long time, upgrading my Logitech G940 FFB base with a Virpil grip. So i bought a Virpil WarBRD base, attached the MongoosT grip and did the mandatory settings to get it fully functional (firmware upgrade, axis calibration and button check). After that i took it apart and salvaged the USB controller PCB and cables to implement them in the G940 base. The old grip and its electronics were completely removed and the gimbal rod was shortened by approx. 50% (picture 2 shows the part that was cut off). I got the CAD data for the thread from Baur at Virpil forums: https://forum.virpil.com/index.php?/topic/656-warbrd-base-thread/&do=findComment&comment=6006 and designed a fitting for the G940 gimbal rod. fred41 from the DCS forums made me a special firmware patch to disable the G940's deadman sensor: https://github.com/fred41/G940-firmware-fixes/tree/ffb_experimental This is a 2in1 device now, one USB connection is the G940 base with all the axis sensors and FFB motors, the other USB connection is the Virpil section (controller and base connector) for attaching the MongoosT-50CM2 grip. One mandatory step after printing is using a threading die M36x2-6g to cut a perfect fitting, clean thread.
