Need advice on a new stick/throttle.
« on: December 19, 2011, 09:33:39 PM »
I'm currently looking for a new stick/throttle. I seen several post talking bout the Saitek x52 setup.
Was wondering if this is a decent stick, or if there is a setup better then that.

And before people start saying get the Ch products, I cannot use the pedals due to being paralyzed waist down.
So sadly a twisty stick is all I can do.
Any and all information is more then helpful.

get the x52 and a self powered usb hub.  and dont use their software ever.  x52 is a really good stick once you get used to it.  some people complain about center "bounce", i got rid of it by having no dampening dead zone or whatever you call it.  which is how I like the sticks anyway.
