Yeh it was disappointing. The throttle looks decent, the pedals look very good, They should have done a T16000m base for the hall sensors, but with a proper combat grip on it with 2 hats, 1 mini joystick, a pinkie button, couple of extra buttons, etc. I.e a cheap down plastic space sim version of the warthog.

As long as you can aim for the sun and throttle up then we're all good! :D

I just got the Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas X for 18€ soooo I'm served for now
That's what I use, I think I paid $35 CDN for it a year and a half ago. It works fairly well, I wish it had about 3 more buttons somewhere on there, but aside from that it is great for that cheap.

I've got it 3 days ago from a second hand store and Oh boy..... I'm loving it.... I wish I had a button configuration for SC but time will tell...

I mechanically broke the Saitek F.L.Y. 5 secondary fire button, it just fell of and, no secondary guns (I guess I fired a little bit to firm :oops:), so I needed a new one. Initially I was looking for the X52 or the X55, but before spending that amount of money I watched allot of reviews.
After the watching the review of @Montoya I finally made up my mind: The X55 is made for Star Citizen, the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog is made for realism and Flight sims.
Since I never fly in flight sims and currently only play SC my choice was very obvious, of course the Warthog!!! The big Manitou advises left, I firmly go right :D.
I don't regret it at all, that stick is worth its weight in gold!!! 14 pound == 6.35 kg?

If you figure it out let me know... I keep changing the buttons trying to nail down a good configuration but it's driving me nuts, I just need a few more buttons and I could use it the way I want to...
