Since you are an upstanding member of the Bish Federation I will point you toward enlightenment. Go CH!

I've owned several x52s and an x52 pro. I've had issues with all of them. The Ch pro stick, pedals are the best. CH costs more but it's worth it. Zazen, a bad guy, has preached it for years. Some folks still use the same ch products stuff for 10 years.

C and H - sorted.

[Bruv119]

CH all the way.

CH is the way to go but it useless without rudder pedals. If you want a twisty stick, go with the X52 pro

[Max]

If you want a twisty stick, go with the X52 pro

Do that and six - twelve months from now you'll be $150 poorer and asking the same "which stick should I buy" question. Bite the bullitt and buy the CH gear.

Since you are an upstanding member of the Bish Federation.....  I would suggest mouse and keyboard 

If you were anyone except a Bish I would say that I've had great success with the Saitek X52 Pro. 

BTW- Good thing you're not a Rook or I would have some really harsh things to say.

I've got a Saitek AV8R.  I think it's a great stick.  In fact it's the perfect replacement if you were used to a MS Sidewinder. 

I really don't need a seperate throttle and all those buttons and stuff on the X52 (8 plus the hat with the ability to dual mode all of them is plenty for me) and for $40 if it breaks a year from now I'll just get another one.

do saiteks come with warranties??? i dont wanna pay $300 for a CH ftrstick and pedals......but they do come with a 2yr warranty on both the joy and pedals......argh.... can anyone tell me bout warranties???

[Getback]

I can tell you about Warranties. Buy the x52pro and get the extended warranty from best buy. Falcon23 has used it.

[321BAR]

How long does it last??? 1yr? 2?
