Saitek Cyborg Evo Force
« on: November 13, 2004, 02:28:14 PM »
I've seen a review, and also I've seen that Saitek sells this from their website. But no one else seems to have it. It's about $20 higher than the regular Evo. I had an Evo until my temper got away from me the other night. I've always wanted to try a force feedback stick, but never found one that really fit me or suited me. It looks like this one might be the one. Anyone here have one?

I have one, it's gathering dust in the cloiset. It looses calibration in mid flight if you take a hard hit, even looses it's centerline. Also gets the "don't move your stick so rapidly" msg when flying with damage. Doesn't ever spike though.

My old Evo did have a habit of losing calibration after a crash (VERY rarely), and it often needed to be calibrated when I logged on. The longer I had it, the less often it lost calibration after a crash. It did still have to be calibrated when I started AH.

Did you buy that thing locally, or did you have to order it somewhere?

What are you using now? Did it solve all those problems?

The newest drivers finally released on October 29th solved my Evo issues.  I previously refused to use the Evo and flew with my broke bellybutton Cyborg Gold USB minus a left rudder for a few months.

These drivers smooth out the movement so no more y-axis moving like 'stairs'.  The drift has also been solved for me.

Try'em out.
