Anyone know of a good joystick with seperat throtle Control? it dont have to bee the best nor the most expensive. Also if its suported by SC or not.
Thinking about geting a joystick
- Thread starter Myomy
- Start date
tbh the inexpensive thrustmaster T16000M is well loved for SC. I use it left hand for dual stick, but it worked great solo.
I have a trusty old X52 which feels great and has plenty of controls/buttons, if it breaks I will get a T1600 as it is cheaper and you can at a later date buy another stick and go twin stick flying.

the DUAL Thrustmaster T16000M looks sweet :)

I picked up dual T16000M's a couple weeks ago, they were on sale for $49/ea. I do not regret the purchase at all. :)
I have a T16000M as well. The spring causes it to want to throw itself to the center when you get close to it but you get used to it pretty quickly. Otherwise it works really well and is pretty inexpensive.
Trend developing. I use the Thrustmaster T16000M too. There are others, but I don't think anything meets the Thrustmaster price/performance.

I'm a cheap-ass mofo, so I use two Logitech Extreme 3d pro's. I almost picked up the T16000's when they were $49, but...nah, I'm too cheap.
Ive got one of those also but i havnt had time to test it out yet.
T16000 is the best bang for bucks, HOTAS and HOSAS. Big advantage is a left-hand stick. It only lacks buttons on stick. Buttons on the base are plenty, but that would mean hands-of-stick to operate them. I use dual Warthog. Best quality stick, plastic gimbal is a bummer. Virpil and VKB have the best gimbals.
I can't tell a lot about mid-range sticks. I switched from a low-end stick to a high-end Warthog. I only regret that it took me sooooo long to switch to high-end.

The dual Warthog is a bit much on my part. Or i meen the misses part :P
LOL, yeah, pffft, the HOTAS was "cheap" because I bought it just before the new products from TM were about to be released. My wife had some question marks about €299, but then I used a trick of my mother-in-law: noooo, I didn't spend €299, I saved €150!!!!
The second stick was 6 months later with the same argument: noooo, I didn't spend €149, I saved €100!!!!

When your wife is on trial for your murder her defense will be "I didn't stab him 26 times, I saved on divorce lawyer fees."
This made me laugh out loud. Well played.
Got twin T16000 here and are really good for dogfighting. I would say best bang for the buck you can get.
