Title: saitek x52 vs. x52 pro joystick recommendation.
Post by: Peyton on August 28, 2012, 12:37:31 PM

I need a new joystick and was wondering about the quality of saitek? 
Do you guys like the saitek joysticks?
What are the pros and cons?
Does it work with AH well?
I do not use pedals and want to buy a saitek x52 or x52 pro.

I already had CH products and a cheap Thrustmaster but want to know about saitek specifically.

Thanks

Those X52s require a easy mod to the hall effect sensors,why they make thm like they do it odd.

St290's were cheap and cheerful and works fine until the buttons fell off, for price can't grumble.

Apperently Sidewinder joysticks of Ebay are suppossed to be very very good and cheap. :old:

In fact I might have a look.
