Looking for a gently used X-52 Pro setup. If you have one that you don't use anymore please drop me a message.

Thanks !

Is there a big difference from the X-52 Pro and the X-52 PS28?  Not trying to hi-jack this thread, but I just ordered the PS28 and I hope it's not junk.

The main reason for me to select the pro: It's heavier an much more durable (more metal instead of plastics).
That's important to me, since I have broken the previous X-45's throttle in two parts (which was build similar to the X52). I didn't want to do such thing again  ;)

  I've read that Saitek has made the X52 Pro's joystick a little stiffer than the PS28 was.  I use a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro for now.  It has a very stiff spring in it, so the transition to the X52 PS28 may take me some getting used to.  It will be nice though, having the throttle seperate from the stick.  I'm gonna try to turn my Logitech 3D into rudder pedals when I get the new stick.  Ha, that should be a project.

My only complaint about my X-52 Pro is that the stick is WAY too lose, so the original X-52 might give you some real problems.
