So after all the Etch o Sketch which is the best set up

[Reschke]

I always love it when someone posts these videos and complains about how the stick doesn't go all the way into the corners. Heck in a real plane or even with a flight sim why would you want to drive the stick into a 90 degree corner for control??? You wouldn't.

It comes down to what you...yes YOU as the consumer want. Me I personally love my Warthog and until it dies I will not be looking at anything else.

Warthog is nice. Too bad it is one rotary short of having all the controls necessary to duplicate the functionalities of the F-16 HOTAS. Of all high fidelity modern aircraft combat flight simulators in the market (DCS A-10 and Falcon BMS) it is somewhat inadequate for 50% of them. :/. Hotas Rhino has the controls but worse precision too if I'm not mistaken.

Thank you Blade for the videos. People should care more about this aspect of the hardware instead of whether it is "fully metal" or the additional switches and screens.

The cobra video looks like the stick scaling would be off or stick has some problem. No control movement with the last 10 degrees of stick movement.

how do you 'scale' the stick so that controller travel matches that seen in game?
