I have the USB Combatstick and it works great.  I don't know if the USB Pro Throttle has been released yet.

Am about to Order the Stick & Pedals myself. It's a bug to find them in Belgium, but I finaly did ! (about a 100UsD apiece.)

Please let me know if there are any "problems" before I go and dig a hole in my pocket, thanks !   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

On a note:
I am lucky enough to have a very good friend who owns a Gamestore, so... I got to try out EVERY damn stick there was around (MS, Saiteck, TM, Gravis)... and well, even the most "precise" ones could not give me the "feel" I still have with my CH gear (Fighterstick & Pro pedals... both very tired and uncalibrated)...

What pi**es me off, is that I bought this Gear less than a year ago...

 "What pi**es me off, is that I bought this Gear less than a year ago..."

 Why change then. Use it. Or buy new USB ger and sell the CH stuff.

 I'm anxious to hear what any owners of the new usb CH Pro Throttle think of it.

I think alot of guys are waiting for the Digital Thrustmaster stuff. Looks really good, and Ill get it to get the F22 cause its got a ton of pressure to the stick.

Until it's released, Im telling you, and Ive owned both. Get the CH PRO Pedals (usb), and a cheap but effective SaitekX36 combo usb HOTAS.

The whole thing will set you back $125 and you'll have toe brakes, rudders, a throttle with a great 4 way trim button that makes flying a g10 not even fair.  (thanks rangerbob for that idea) Not to mention a ton of buttons, a superior view system when you program in the pinky switch, and a solid not to loose feeling joystick.

The old analog ones were horrible, but this is solid and always calibrated.

Thank me later-

 Lizard3 it's at least in beta testing now. Go read the harware forumn from back in Dec.
I was hoping someone would toss in a remark.

 And that's MISTER "bonehead".

Westy, I'm simply having the same problem as Santa and don't want to end up with Creamo's underwear  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Pots are "used", both in the Stick & in the Rudder (looks like I only have about 70% of deflection left...and of course, it's not centered...)

'till CH USB gets here, I'm bitin' my nails and waiting... tried the TM stuff and do not like the "hard spring" feel.
