Stick Recommendations ?
« on: September 14, 2007, 10:19:28 AM »
I think my X52 stick is going to &#!* the bed. LEDS flash and stick hangs up on reboot about 1/3rd of the time. Throttle seems to be OK. Have played around with different drivers, same results. What would you guys choose for a new stick. I'm probably going to use the old throttle. :confused:

Errr....before you dump it m8, are you running it through a powered hub? as it could be underpowered if your running it directly through a USB port.

IIRC Provantage usually has good prices on CH stuff.
