Lets sign a petition :D ;)

I'm on my 2nd X45 combo in less than a year.   When you feel like posting something else, take your head out of your...

I wasn't hard on it.  The USB wouldn't read anymore.  Tried uninstalling the software, reboot, reinstall.  Nothing.  Went back to BB, exchanged.  It works, so far.  

Chick?  I'm the Rooster in the Hen house smart prettythang :D

Neh. It's handled over a year of horrible abuse (apparently) and works like a champ. If I said it was "endorsed by Voss" would you buy it? :D

I would LOVE to get the TH Hotas Cougar setup...but man..that's a LOT of money...

Found one on Ebay with CH pedals...but $300+ is a little out of my range if I'm not sure that I'm gonna stick it out...


Buy it, and if you do not like it, sell it on Ebay...  thats my recomendation
I regret doing business with TD Computer Systems.

Brat,

Do you put down your cocktail when you enter a dogfight?

Me no, thats why i fly MS twisties.  Got PP2 USB  for $35 couple years ago only because my new computer did not have a game port.  Replaced a perfectly good PP2 that I got at a garage sale for $5.  If you have a gameport on ur puter, I will see if the wife has not thrown it away and  will send it to ya gratis.  Basically used 2 joysticks regularlly for past 9 yrs.  Will look tomorrow.
