It's probably going to be a quadrature hall sensor like the Allegro A1230 Link But I'll be interested to see how they mount the magnet.
The T.16000M was with a coil spring and ring system. Link
I was told, on this forum, that T.16000M has a MLX90333 Hall sensor chip and running in digital mode (I guess most likely in SPI mode instead of PWM). So, the chances are good that it's MLX90333 inside Warthog (good for me if it turns out to be true, as I have a USD $1700 programmer for MLX chips; bought for the DiH and DiXYHS projects). Plus, the Allegro chip you provided link with has quadrature output, it would be a pain in the you know where for this application. With MLX90333, all you really need is a MLX90333, 3 capacitors, a magnet (Neo most likely), and a mechanism to move the magnet on a spherical trajectory. What's the obvious solution? A ball! But, the newest TM press release does say a "Cardan" mechanism, i.e. a universal joint.
Fransky, wanna bet? $5? I bet it's MLX90333 in the Warthog stick, anything else I lose.
