I just taped a broom handle on my joystick,   its alot smoother now and feels/is much more realistic.

i heard of someone incorporating a milk jug  into their flight set up, anyone else getting creative with their interface layout?

LoL, good question?!

you couldnt switch views or use the hats. Good idea though someone should make a real flightstick that is taller.

the connection device to connect the firing rod is the latest in the kneaded eraser line, i have since upgraded to more tape since the eraser has had a tendancy to let the firing rod slip during high g manuvers.

i would imagine that you could just extend a joystick by extending and wiring the midsection.  or at least with mine it appears that you could.  hmmmm.

hardcore!  those are some pretty creative ideas rt! , looks like they work well too, thats a pretty cool idea running wires out of your keyboard, is it possible to do that with modern ones? im thinking of making a new throttle set up with trim and fov zoom keys mapped to it maybe you can help out!

[eilif]

ya jb88, i had some ideas drawn out for that, just need a piece of pvc pipe or something, i may get to that at some point but this broom handle has style!

[eilif]

anyone have a link to a good pot manufacturer that goes through the usb port?

[eilif]

hey i wonder if i could get aces high or tw to recognize a second joystick! i could just map my ms sidewinder slider for throttle and use the hat on it for trim!
