x52 pro has a far nicer spring. not floppy at all, and you dont' need to be a weight lifter to move it. |

ohhh, they took frankin potato idea and with rotaries on the trottle. I like the design, its less anime / space age than their current flagship. has buttons enough. anyone mentioned the customization software / set up? The ppl reviewing the logitech haven't mentioned the customization software either . . .

[Saitek link] so it's real... i wonder if they both buy from the same manufacturer, the similarities in throttle layout, the sudden, near-synchronous revival of FFB...
"so we have these plans for a new impressive FFB HOTAS system that would be really cost-efficient to manufacture in large enough number. If we sell it under our own brand we will utterly fail. But two of our customers are established names in the flight stick business, let's ask them if they are interested in designing their touch of corporate identity around the given frame." - sounds too far-fetched?

I hope that Saitek don't do what did with both the X-45 and X-52, make a throttle unit that is extremely good (the throttle on the X-45 is better than the CH Pro Throttle IMHO) but make a stick that is mediocre at best.  Long as I remember The rain been comin' down. Clouds of myst'ry pourin' Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Tryin' to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain. |

you forgot the "win now" button

Will they do a left-handed stick for awkward b*****s like me? (Not that I'm ever likely to be able to afford one anyway...)

The pure metal strength back coupling X65F rocking bar estimated that in December goes on the market Post the By:2009-6-29 17:49: 03
It is estimated that in December issues the pure metal strength back coupling X65F flight controller.
The X65F flight controller has used the entire Hall's magnetic induction potentiometer, is in the flight rocking bar top product, the rocking bar and the throttle valve simultaneously has the unique strength induction to install the system as well as the double throttle valve control, may edit 608 pressed keys, is throughout history the function most PC flight rocking bar. All metallic construction is the authenticity and durable ultimate realizes the way. The unique strength induction rocking bar, all input signal is decided completely by you the strength which exerts to the rocking bar, or the F - 22 fighter aircrafts is the same on likelihood F - 16. The rocking bar has the strength induction characteristic lies in: He will adjust and demonstrates each direction separately through the rocking bar induction installment the displacement. May also aim at the XY axis different direction the different dynamics careful adjustment. Simultaneously increased the extension expansion design, for instance may join the match titanium guest's aircraft instrument.
This model of product estimate selling price about 5000 Yuan.
Explains the inside several special places:
1st, first this time strength back coupling is induces the mechanism, is higher than the former strength back coupling far. For instance accelerator, if you used the mouse to move in game's accelerator, then on your X65F accelerator along with will also move, he was the interaction. Is also the so-called linkage. This is in the present flight controller's origination.
2nd, some people ask my this dynamics to be able not to adapt very greatly. I said like this to you that he is the strength back coupling, therefore dynamics is completely defines. You may let his spot not have dynamics, may also let he very great dynamics. Moreover he also changed the former strength back coupling size adjustment is the adjustment unified size. But this time is you may aim at all around four direction establishment different dynamics, before for instance the establishment, pushes 10 dynamics, latter pulls 15 dynamics, left pressure 8 dynamics, right pressure 10 dynamics. Moreover you may also establish three sets of such dynamics to save in advance, when momentarily you replace the airplane, you thought when needs to trade one kind of other dynamics, so long as moves the knob switch then.
3rd, this funds' product has provided rich external connection matching, may product mixes and so on aircraft instrument which goes on the market with the present match titanium guest, and provided has matched the support related.
Why actually does the match titanium guest leave the metal the product, actually the match titanium guest had already replaced the product mentality, is similar to the commercial aviation pole is the same, match titanium guest this model of product for the ultimate product, the match titanium guest hoped that the user can unfailing use it, is not uses several years to trade other equipment, but is hopes you through the unceasing promotion perfect equipment. That is the match titanium guest in its peripheral many equipment, will be similar to the commercial aviation equipment is the same, measuring appliance, flight kneading board and so on, will realize a hypothesized cabin's environment finally. About face buys a new equipment, old equipment on useless aspect.
Holy crap! Who translated that? This guy?  -"Rein muß err" und wenn wir beide weinen!-  |

Anyone else's X52 get stuck at various deflections on occassion and require the stick cable to be re-plugged before itll work?
Find it hard buy a $700 joystick from a company that couldnt even get its previous products to calibrate properly

OMG! quote:
Top of the range flight stick and throttle featuring unique force-sensing mechanism, dual throttle control and the most functions ever found on a PC flight stick
* Metal construction for the ultimate in realism and durability
* Unique force sensing stick – all input is detected from how hard you push on the stick, just like in real modern day jet fighters
* Features on-the-fly adjustment of the force settings for the stick – including separate adjustments for each axis of the stick for the ultimate in stick response configuration Dual throttle for finer control over twin engine jets, or lock the two throttles together for single engine fighters
* Force-sensing twist rudder control
* Controls featured across both the stick and throttle: 8 x 8-way hats, 8 x buttons, 2 x rotaries, 1 x mouse hat, 1 x 2 way switch, 1 x scroll selector, 1 x 4 position mode switch – that’s a potential total of 608 commands possible without ever moving your hands from the controls!
I can't wait to read more about this "force sensing" stuff. They say it's used in real jets, does anyone have info on this input method? And all metal to boot! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flying online as NORAD_Shinjiro |

Prop sim pilots want Force Feedback, Force Sensing only really works with a couple of jet sims.

I'm diggin it. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to put into that, when my X-52 is chugging along quite happily. As for the force sensing. Lord Vader had it installed in his Tie fight....wait,...wrong one. The force sensing twist rudder sounds like the small throw controller used in an F-16. A strain gauge. It may only move 1/16th an inch, but will still allow for full throw inputs by force application. But if this is a force feedback stick,..how will that work? Force feedback could induce uncommanded rudder inputs on a twisty rudder. Maybe something is getting lost in translation. This controller looks and sounds like the bees knees. If I get a chance,or win a few hundred bucks..will buy.
