Virpil CM2 Throttle Detent

thingiverse

A customizable detent track system for the Virpil CM2 Throttle. Provided are space sim (center detent) and fighter jet (idle and afterburner detents) tracks, but you can use the Fusion360 file to create whatever detent you desire. The CAD file should have "upper" and "lower" decks; all you need to do is add a line between them and a ramp of sorts. The tracks are inserted onto the throttle by replacing the middle screws of the cover with slightly longer screws. The throttle arms have a body that houses a ball spring. I used M5x16 ball springs (specifically Amazon item # B07TD7M2FF), so you'll need to adjust the threading in the body if you choose a different ball spring. The bodies just snap onto the throttle arms (you'll need to disconnect the lock to separate the two half-throttles in order to attach the ball spring bodies). I've used this in DCS quite a few times and loved them. There's some slight wear with PLA, but replacements are easy to make if it actually breaks the detent/bump. The original idea was to cut slits into the base piece, form metal tracks by hand filing aluminum sheets, and be able to hot swap the track without unscrewing anything; but I never got that far. I am no longer maintaining this file as I have upgraded to a CM3. Feel free to use or modify as you see fit. Happy flying!
