Thanks to everyone,i am sure the Warthog,TrackIR,MFD's and rudder pedals are awesome and all.. Unfortunately i don't have either the time,either the money to enjoy it fully.I have 2-3 hours at most a day for flying,and as i have never played flight sims,yesterday at the flight missions i was just like .. : O_O.. So the learning curve is really big,and i will be learning this game for alot of time,and if i still am enjoying it,i will then buy all the other stuff. Unfortunately as for the moment i can only afford the X52 pro joystick and POSSIBLY MFD's.

Thanks for the real fast answers,i will be getting the X52 in 3-4 days then and i think i will have enough budget to get MFD's too. As for the TrackIR,i know it's great and all that,but hopefully i will get one at Christmas.. And until then,i found this : http://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/home/default.htm So basically that does the same job as the TrackIR5(YES,not that accurate and good)however i guess i could use it until i get TrackIR?

So yeah,i just got DCS:A-10 and DSC:Black shark from the recent steam sale. I don't have any hardware for these games whatsoever,and i have NONE experience in flying with joysticks. I have been gathering information about different joysticks and stuff,and i came down to 2 possibilities: Saitek x52 Pro Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog (Do not tell me there is a x65,i know it,i simply CANNOT use without the joystick actually moving,it's un-natural) As for joysticks,but due to me not having enough money to get the Warthog,i'll go with the x52 pro.Will it be good enough to use it? Also i have additional questions : Are rudder pedals really needed,or i can pass them for now?(i have limited budget atm) Are MFD's so good,and can they be used for a different sim except A-10?(The MFD's Cougar for A-10C) Can i play without TrackIR 5 for a while(until Christhmas)Is is so bad without it? Also what happens if buy the TrackIR 5 pro without the thing on your headset?Can u use it? Thanks. (I'm not to keen on getting MFD's and TrackIR 5 atm,cause of the terrible pricing i get in my region -_-)

When i get A-10(the game) i will be mainly playing that as i enjoy planes slightly more than helicopters,however i won't stop playing BS and BS2(when i buy it). I won't be building a pit.In the near future i will be getting myself : TrackIR5 MFD Cougar's (i still need comments on these,are they worthy for their price?) Joystick : HOTAS Warthog or .. ?!! (suggestions). I have NEVER played with a joystick whatsoever,so does that matter? Also are the MFD cougars usable on other games or are they specific for A-10?

Thanks for all the help,i contacted some people,i contacted you as well @noc_orthodontist. I hope we fly soon.Thanks for the suggestion's. As for joystick,i have the money for the Warthog,however is it the best?Do i need the MFD cougar things too?

Hello everyone, Just saying hello,as i just joined this forums and this is my 1st post.:) First off i want to ask NOT to be hated at or w/e,for not finding the information i am looking for,or for making a similar topic to a already existing one.:music_whistling: Now : I just bought Black shark 1 from Steam and do i qualify for the 20$ discount of BS2?Also I'm buying A-10 tomorrow(steam again :/ ).:thumbup: Anyway to the Black shark questions: I have a lot of them.Can i be directed to some videos/training missions? How to start-up,how to turn on the targeting screen in the middle? Also,is there a key mapping image similar to this (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=62548),for the BS controls?:helpsmilie: I have alot of questions,and i'd love to have a friend or two who are mature veterans(or good at this game and just normal people)so i can have people i can ask questions to?Ofcourse if they are willing to.:helpsmilie: Also i'd love to join a squadron,but i'm pretty sure no one wants people with no experience whatsoever in flightsims.I know how to use TS/Ventrillo anything. Basically i need help too cause i don't have a joystick yet,(will buy one in the next 1-2 weeks) and TrackIR.I need suggestions on what joystick to get.I have my eye on the HOTAS Warthog,but i accept suggestions from experienced people.:joystick: Also last thing : Thanks for any help i get,i appreciate it.I'm happy to be here and looking forward to learning and flying with some of you guys. Also this is my steam profile if you want to add me and "teach me" (give me advice/fly with me) http://steamcommunity.com/id/Jok3R_Her3/ I accept any people,i love playing with someone.:pilotfly: Thanks for reading this,sorry it turned out so big :book:
