3D-printable collar for Thrustmaster grips on FSSB
Posted: Fri Sep 22, 2023 12:55 am
Hi,
As you know, the Thrustmaster grips have only a weak metal pipe at the bottom, which may develop play or even break when used on the FSSB base where the base itself doesn't move and absorb the applied force. Traditionally I've used LEGO bricks in the gap above the rotating mounting ring on the grip, but on the Ultra base that solution seems to be less effective, perhaps due to the slightly greater motion of the stick.
So, I made 3D-printable support collar for the grips, available for free on Printables: https://www.printables.com/model/589579 ... -fssb-base
