I had two Logitech joysticks, both were clunky and had heavy movements. I have used an old MS Sidewinder faithfully for the past five years, it has never failed me. Those look good and I may have to do a feeler at the local depository. :ernae:

Those look very nice. I believe it has force feedback hasn’t it? When are they available?

Yeah 250 buckeroos for the Logitech set

I hope they end up selling the rudders separately, as an option

I'm afraid the rudders can't be an option- they and the throttle have a non-USB cord which connects into the stick. It's an incredible controller, and good value, really. Odd that you posted this today- I just started my review :D

Mind you, it's more of a preview, really.

The other pic shows a Saitek....X65??? Where is there more info on that set?

There is none. It was leaked and unofficial, probably some old concept renders, extremely high fidelity and price.

But there's definitely something on the horizon:

Ooo, trim on the stick itself, I like that, I wonder if it moves the central position of the stick?

Looks like a cool piece of hardware.
Presumed the FF ain't as weak and sluggish as all the other Logitech sticks I tried this might be a potential replacement for my trusty old Sidewinder 2.

300 - 420 $

This rings my sentiments exactly!

I've had the G940 for a week now. It is a BLAST, especially the dual throttles!

The G940 pedals are really sturdy, too. I haven't tried the CH ones, but I bet they're as good :D

Yes on the force feedback. I think it's a good deal for three controlers! But I'm going to wait and see what the feedback is on it! The "propaganda" out there now is all positive.........I'll wait! :engel016:

That X65 looks awesome! Where can I find some more info on that? The split throttle is going to be great for the VRS Superbug for FSX!!!!!!

I'm also interested in that one, so i searched a bit on the net and apparently there are software issues on 64bits systems, it will surely be fixed but how "soon" i don't know. :mixedsmi:
So for now i'll hold off this stick and wait until the software get fixed. :pop4:

the rudder pedal shouldn`t have the fencing at the lower half.
force feed back , MS, Logetek, Saitek, all ever have force feed back product, but none have close to real feel.

I'm not too wild about the bases on the stick and throttle.

It's not clear how you would mount them but if it required
some screws into the four 'corner feet' that would seem
to severely limit ones options.

My current Saitek Pro Yoke with the additional throttle
quadrant are mounted to my keyboard tray using multiple
strips of velcro, allowing me to reconfigure things quite
easily, but that method of mounting requires a fair amount
of flat surface on the bases.
