Cyborg - X Flightstick?
« on: March 31, 2012, 10:55:54 AM »
Nearly ordered one, but it's got terrible customer feedback for only lasting a short amount of time.

Anyone use one?
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

Get rudder pedals with it, or don't bother...

If it's the FLY5 it's a pure waste of money.

I have pedals, what's the FLY5?

This is the one I was considering.

Since you have pedals, you'll be fine.. the reason the Cyborg X gets bad reviews is because the rudder starts spiking badly after a month of use, just don't calibrate the Z axis and you're good.

I have a Cyborg X and CH Pedals.

Agree - that stick is total merde - I picked one up while my Warthog was off getting fixed and only two of the buttons actually worked on the thing right out of the box.

I had one I bought from wal-mart 3 years ago after my X52 crapped out and used it for apricot 1 year and then I upgraded. A squaddie was in need of a stic so I sent it to him and he has NP problems with it. It is a good starter stick but I would reccomend spending a littlemore and getting something like ch gear or go alleluia out and get the warthog or X65.

It is a turd , I bought one to replace my EVO which had some bad pots in it. The Cyborg X was so terrible  :joystick:  I canabalized the pots from it and used them in the EVO...then returned the Cyborg X  :t
