Holy!

Is it just me, or do these X45 grips (flight stick) induce one helluva callous in the middle of your hand? I unload trucks at UPS at night and wear gloves all night...but 45 minutes on the X45 grip and my hand is aching! Perhaps its time for some flight gloves.

Is this phenomena limited to just me?

LOL please post a picture if you resort to gloves, soft boy

X45 for about a year, X36 for two before that - np here

Doh!

Such a "manly" group here haha....

Now if I could just make the X45 center itself!

C'mon LePaul, tell us how you really got that callous...

He said it was from yanking his stick.

Draw your own conclusions

I wore my X45 out in less than 4 months. The handle is extremely loose on the rod it's attached to, and no tightening of the screw improved things. I also wear out a mouse in about 3 months, the sliders wearing right off in that time. I think I press on things a bit to hard.

But I've never seen a callous on my hands yet
