Hardware & Technical Warthog Throttle middle detent mod for using full range throttel

I did like my ex x52 and i love my new warthog but all of the throttles seem to lack a proper center position, so if you want to use forward and backward thrust on the same axis its not really comfortable to find the center position to nullify thrust.

Thats why i decided to mod the warthog throttle. Now after playing some time with my new setup and the modded warthog i can say it works like a charm.

the mod requires a bit of cutting at the throttle itself but if you remove the new part it works just like before:
first i did widen the notch (the one thats just right in front of the changeable afterburner thing) as i thought i'ed make a small detent piece, but then i realised that it would have to less area of support (if you want to do the mod aswell you wont have to do that). then you have to remove a bit of the curve and make a flat area for the new detent.
and this is it. i cant tell you the radius i used its a bit of try and error till you get it right:
finalised:
The detent is removeable - in theory, it has to fit snug to prevent any wobbling.
In game (Elite Dangerous) - might also work in target (i dunno) i had to set throttle to full range (forward and backward on same axis) and set a bit of a dead zone.
