Why would  you want to use the keys to move your rudder rather than something 100x quicker like a twisty stick?

Jetb,

I have that stick.   While its not an "uber" CH stick it is a good stick for the money.     It is the first twisty stick I have ever owned.     It takes abuse well.    I know first hand.     I slammed mine on my desk so many times the tabs on the side of the stick popped off.    The function tabs is what I'm referring to.      

All it takes is Pacerr or Jish whooping my *** and it gets slammed.      Pretty immature but I get so mad that I can't beat those guys that I have to take my frustartion out somewhere.

Well its all in how you adjust to it I guess.

I know for a fact that you will fly better with a twist stick than you will by using the keyboard keys to control your rudder.

I use an old MS Precision pro 2 twisty stick. And I love it. Its going to suck when it totaly dies. As they no longer make them. Already my hat switch wont work unless I press it so hard that I my thumb goes numb.

I use them same stick and love it morph, think there are some used ones on e-bay when it finaly gives up but quality is obviously not assured.

As for using rudder on keyboard thats a big no-no imho as is the cyborg evo stick, I find it to bulky and combersome if that makes any sence.

On a totally seperate note that film is ready for you morph if you still wanna host it. How can i send it to you(quite big bout 50m)

I have a MS Precision Pro and a Cyborg Evo....  I love the twisty-stick!  I actually like the Saitek better because it has a few more buttons.
     Morph!  There are quite a few MS sticks on ebay right now if you are lookin for one!  Some are overpriced because MS doesn't make em anymore but there are quite a few at reasonable prices.

Can the Precision Pro be better than the new Logitech?  If I didn't have an X45, I would get the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro, it feels great, and lots of buttons.  Probably the best stick for the money, but if I had money to burn, I would look at the new X52 by Saitek, a stick with more options than a loaded Caddy.

Boo, my PP2 has just developed a deadspot turning right, shame on MS for not making them anymore.
