X-52 is screwed onto a bamboo cutting board. :lol  Used the high density padding that came with the monitor under the board to keep from scratching the desk.  I put the board on my lap for flying and it is comfy (not quite like a stripper, but oh well).  That black box was made by my squaddie, Haxxor.  It gives me extra buttons that really help expedite getting shot down.   :joystick:

Nice setup PAND...how do you keep your Pedals from slipping all over the place? Mine slip all over the place unless i put them up against the wall. I am extremely violent with my rudders though.
The Pedals are actually pulled out just for the picture ---- I put a spacer near the wall for the pedals to rest up against so they're the 'right' distance from my chair.  Haven't had any issue with slippage :)

Regarding having my arm in the air, I can't imagine doing it any other way --- if I get lazy, then so does my accuracy!  :bolt:

Wow! Some of those rigs look like they costs thousands...
My setup = $20 keyboard, $20 mouse, computer that runs AH lowest settings at a 30 FPS max, and a $15 Logitech 3D Pro...  :huh

I had a used laptop for 5 years that barely ran aces high on NO graphics, my business finally picked up at a safe pace that I went out and bought my rig and monitor as well as flight stick.

I spent a few grand, but its the only thing I spend money on next to beer, food and aces high:)

If you do the math on how much of time is spent flying aces, and compare it to how long the equipment lasts... it's pretty easy to justify the entertainment cost per hour.   :joystick:
