  1. I vote for dualsense. You get a mouse trackpad, built in mic, and gyro. You can map look around to the gyro, and combined with the trackpad you can have nearly full control of the cockpit. Definitely get some stick extensions, and I prefer to use dampeners as well. Some people call dampeners a gimmick, however I prefer the extra resistance it adds to the throw. If you really want to get serious, go with the dualsense edge. Most notably for the removable thumbsticks. What i did was modify one to not recenter by removing the spring, and by gluing the x axis i now have a nice throttle module. When I want to go back to a regular stick i just swap it out. You also get the 2 back paddles, which I use for weapon deployment. As for precision, they're on par with anything out there, not perfect but its not misleading like how some manufacturers add an inner and outer deadzone to make it appear its bloody perfect, which it is not. Also Gullikit is supposed to be realeasing some hall effect modules for it as well. Anyway good luck in your journey friend

  3. Thank you for this! Unfortunately it looks like the problem will be the connectors that will make it incompatible. Oh well too bad.
  4. Hi everyone, I'm curious as to whether the Warbrd-d uses the same case as the standard Warbrd. The idea being that I have a standard Warbrd already mounted exactly how I want it, and it would be great if I could just drop the internals from a Warbrd-d into the old Warbrd case without having to remount anything. Thanks for any info!
  5. Yeah nvm if it's only related to virpil. I have a warbird, but seems as though the warthog is fine so disregard
  6. I dont understand this post. I was just giving the OP another thumbs up to the solution that sea2sky and millions of others have suggested, by binding mouse buttons to the hotas and then simply looking at what you want to press. I think maybe I missed something...
  7. This hands down. I have no idea why more people dont utilize this technique.
  8. Dantooine is too remote to make an effective demonstration
  9. I have a warthog "magnetic" base that needs a good home. $10 plus shipping (I'm in USA). It's been opened up and re-greased with marine grease. Nothing wrong with it, but I replaced it with a Warbird and realsim r3 base(s) so its sitting around now (was using it for f14 rio). Anyway, the only stipulation is that it goes to someone who regularly flies, in a wing (virtually of course), and will appreciate it. I'm not here to give it away to some jerk that's going to put it on ebay tomorrow for 10x the price, I can do that myself. It must go to someone genuinely looking to continue their virtual flying career, hence the ridiculous price. I also have a set of TFRP rudder pedals if anyone is interested. Same deal. And whomever buys these must go up on a flight together with me once they get 'em setup, I dont care the skill level, just love to fly.
  10. VKB gladiator nxt + CH pro throttle. its going to put you a little over budget, but the stick is well worth it, you'll probably keep it your whole career. Later u can upgrade the throttle. Or as previsouly mentionted CH fighterstick is a great choice, especially how easy it is to do the rubber band mod trick to increase the tension if its too soft.
  11. Thanks for the response Mover! However I'm still curious as to what u mean by "time to get their systems setup", and "(vs eating up range head on)" . Was the previous style of head on merges not enough time for people to "get their systems setup"? And is a head on merge at equal co alt and airspeed not conducive to some proper BFM/DACT training procedure? Just curious if head on merges are not a part of typical IRL training
  12. Hi just a few questions: 1. Why the line abreast starting positions rather than a more traditional style head on merge? 2. Does the Falco fight require F-16vF-16 or is Falco coded for DACT capability to defend against other airframes? Basically I'm asking if the human contender is allowed to choose a different aircraft? disclaimer: I have very little time in XP11 and have no idea all the combat aircraft available in it, let alone how well they're modeled. As such, if the realism of other airframes doesn't permit a realistic dogfight then maybe I answered my own question.
  13. Ok i understand those points, but im not just talking about high end hotas, and i disagree with the wh sitting firmly in the middle. T16000, vkb gladiator, ch fighterstick are superior examples, not without their flaws but cheaper and you can spend the extra money on a quality throttle. While you can call this simply my opinion, and certainly you would be correct, fact is ive flown with many others who get WH and are all excited at first, only to be let down when they have to add deadzone and curve it out to the point of absurdity for precision flying. Time and time again i warn people against wh and they always ignore me and get it anyway, then after honeymoon they cant stand it. Im disgusted by wh because people believe it to be a mid/high end stick, which it is absolutely not.
  14. Because ive owned 2 of them and i simply cant fathom why ANYONE would recommend it. I would rather fly with a keyboard before i would ever go back to a warthog stick. And i think my analogy was pretty spot on, people are obsessed with shiny things (oh wow its metal!) without considering whats on the inside. Almost every single person claiming the hog is gods stick are coming from a 3d pro or tflight or x52/55/56 and are clueless as to other gems out there, no offence, im just trying to save the guy from buying a way over priced piece of junk!
