Post by: RichardDarkwood on July 09, 2025, 04:20:47 PM: I bought a Turtle Beach Velocity One joystick and its pretty damn good. Having a mouse/thumb pad on top of the joystick solves a lot.

It was under $150 and it works great.

Have they gotten the lack of Win 11 drivers fixed?

I had to replace my X52 Pro because my machine refused to recognize it and there weren't any win11 drivers available.

Went with the TurtleBeach Flightdeck

Post by: hazmatt on July 09, 2025, 10:24:20 PM: I've used the x56 for a while and the only complaint I have is that the throttle will advance with gravity on it's own to 100% (this is a common issue) more then half the time so you have to keep your hand on it if you're in a sim that requires engine management so it doesn't blow up. I don't think you would notice that issue here as much.
