guttboy,
Thanks for the link, but they wanted $50 to ship pedals or $38 for throttle to Hawaii. Guess I will wait till Chips n Bit have em in stock, as they ship Priority mail.

Glad to hear it helped you . I have this forum post saved so that I won't have to do it again ever , just point them to this post , that's why I did so much more than maybe I had to so that it would make sense one way or the other , hehe .

U now know for sure that " A pic says a thousand words" .

DAVENRINO : I just ordered one for a bud from amazon.com , link below , they were 111.95 with free shipping ( free to me at least)

I use to buy my Ch Products at http://www.buy.com and it was the cheapest but not this time with cause no free shipping .

Guttboy that's a good price if you wanted that game . I know it sells for 40 bucks yet so u got a good deal IMO .

Yeah Airspro,
I really wanted the game so it was good to get it...getting it running right is another question.

The throttle is amazing!!

I cant imagine ever flying without one before! I have several changes to your stick setup however.

The biggest is that I use the minijoystick hat button as my gear button. I inadvertantly hit gear with the wayyou had it set up so that was kinda nasty!

Well gotta run HIGHLY RECC THIS TO ANYONE!!!!!!!

Well guys,
After flying with this throttle for a few days now here is an update:

INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Airspro,
Amazon estimated 16-19 days for delivery so I cancelled. i went to Buy.com and got rudders and throttle each for about $114 delivered by 2 day air which means 3 days to Hawaii. Thanks for the great post on setup as I will be using a FF2 stick with them.

HeHe,
All windows open, ceiling fans on, and only the usual home apparel - only a light pair of shorts. It is Paradise after all.
