Just wandering,

as I switched from the X52 Pro to the HOTAS WARTHOG, and one of the first things I noticed, was that it's much easier for me to track targets, and pick where I want to shoot....

i love my x52 pro, i have CH rudder pedals but i put them in the closet because of my frustration level and the fact that i was working alot. now that my hours at work have slowed down, i will dust them off and try to learn them again.

Wondered where you'd been....

MSFFB2 + CH Pro pedals. 

(I've replaced switches on the FFB2 several times; it's easy and they're dirt cheap.  The FFB2 does drop my AH frame rate by 18% though.)

Logitech Freedom 2.4 wireless twisty stick here.. Its the 2nd one I own during my 4 years of flight, and now this one is about to quit on me too.. 
Main problem is the tophat switch, it gets floppy after a while and it gets really tricky to get the views to work. Another issue is spiking when gentle inputs are applied, such as in aiming.. 

I need to win the lottery, because my main issue above my crappy stick is my even crappier lametop.. It barely run the game, and my videocard do not handle high res or high number of players around..

I use the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro.

Does anyone know the difference between the x52 and x52-Pro?  It's $100 but they seem to be the same stick just looks different.

you should be able to find the difference between the sticks in these sites.

Thanks for the reply, but I've seen all of those.  There's very few people who've owned both.  That's what I'm lookin for.

well i can tell you this much, my best friend/squaddie JETSOM (you may know him as Ink) burned through 3 X52's in i believe a year and a half. now keep in mind that he tends to play alot more than the average player, but still for a stick that expensive it doesnt say much for durability. the X52 Pro is made of the same parts and materials as the X52, so i doubt it would prove any more reliable in the long run. i believe he now uses a CH stick with the X52 throttle. he loves his set up and it has proven reliable thus far.

i use TM HOTAS COUGAR and i love it! nothing like all metal construction for that feel of strength and durability, but the switches (like the switched used by every stick manufacturer) do need the occassional cleaning or replacing. the amout of mods that can be done to it are unbelieveable and the ability to program it through either Foxy or T.A.R.G.E.T are un parralled by any other system. so i am a touch biased against the plastic junk

good luck and happy hunting

Logitech 3D Pro, simple and inexpensive & haven't broke it yet like the saitek.  
Of course maybe I'm a bit more seasoned and not squeezing the trigger in a sweaty handed death grip anymore....
