Anyone up for a Spitfire control setup?

Only around $2000 USD for the base model... :O

They also have a modified Saitek EVO stick on a long shaft as well.

It is a cool project and if I had the $2000 USD just sitting around I would get it for sure just to be ready in case my wife left me and I would have the time and space to build a flight sim pit.

My wife let me build THIS. She thought it was better if I was home in it, instead of hanging out at some bar shooting pool. oh, I have a pool table too  :D
