MY RIG---Lets See Yours (PICTURES)
« on: December 29, 2005, 01:17:17 PM »
I was diggin through my box of old junk and stumbled across some battle weary joysticks i retired. And i had a digital camera handy so woohoo. Here they are.  (Don't laugh to hard at my the riggin on one of my joysticks lol)

 




 

Thats my first joystick, a madcat no rudder input (made it extremely hard on me lol)  



 

So i got more serious and got a wingman digital extreme 3d pro.  It acted like a POS.. I thought it was a fluke so i got another.


 

Well i soon discovered yes wingman digital extreme 3d pros are indeed POS so i gave up.  I had withdrawls so i did some fancy rigging.  What you see above is i discovered a piece of plastic busted out on hte botton makin it completely limp so i stuffed it in as best i could.  Super glued it.  THen put a piece of cardboard coubled up from an old budweiser case and super glued it on tight.  THen i taped it with masking tape to insure it didnt pop off.  It worked great.  

Then i got another joystick from microsoft called a microsoft precision pro 2.  IT held up great so i went to get another one but they discontinued makin them so i was completely pissed and decided to buy a CH rig.


 

I've had this rig for 18 months no problem.. Ch pro pedals and a ch combat stick. (Cigarettes and Coffee mug warmer not included.)

Lets see your Rigs.

If my camera were working I'd take a pic of mine, meager as it is.

I miss the hand-grip and button placement of the Wingman. I, too, had one. It had a good, heavy, base, and the feel was decent. Too bad it was a POS. I'm using a second-hand MS Sidewinder (analog) now, will keep it til it breaks (few years at best guess).

I can't afford any of that CH stuff :)

One day I want rudder pedals. I'd fly with a crappy MS Sidewinder forever if I had pedals.

I use the throttle that came with it built onto base of joystick.  Do i need an expensive controll built specifically for throttle? lol  (maybe if i used twin engined fighters)

yeah my first stick was a wingman extreme.... loved the feel and layout, but rudder would spike after about 6 months of use. so RTB to best buy and exchange. :aok

i find the greatest thing about the throttle system is you can map all your keyboard functions into one place so it reduces the control load that is required to jump all over the keyboard.
