Written By c-j-c Date Written Aug 26 2008 Summary I'm one of those people who does enjoy flight simulators, but I'm not enough of an enthusiast to want to spend hundreds of pounds on equipment. For some time I had been flying with a quite old joystick which had 2 buttons and a small throttle, and was... Strength Nice to use, lots of buttons, twin throttles, cheap Weakness Base light and tends to move, Can't blame crashes on joystick any more Bottom Line For fairly serious flight simmers on a budget, I'd say it's a must have, but cheap and versatile enough even for those who aren't so into flight sims. So far so good

Written By totallyfrozen Date Written Jun 23 2008 Summary I have limited experience with this unit so this will be a very limited review, but I will go over some highlights. I bought it in order to be able to play Microsoft Flight Simulator X. FSX is NOT a combat flight sim so this joystick is not the ideal... Strength Plenty of customizable controls Weakness Can slide on your desktop during use. Bottom Line Great flexibility and good build quality. Affordable. |
