Hello everyone,
I have been looking for a throttle-only product to complement my joystick, and have trouble finding anything.
Recently I've stumbled upon a very cheap Saitek x35t throttle. It looks like what I need - good amount of buttons, hats, a mouse...
The only thing that's holding me back is the gameport. Now - I have a gameport stick and using an adapter to make it USB works fine - all its buttons are working, and all axises respond fine. But I've heard a lot of people talking about gameports and saying they limit the functionality of hardware.
My question is - If I get that throttle, its drivers and an adapter, will I be able to use it correctly in DCS and Falcon BMS ?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT :
I've seen a few posts on this forum that seemed to indicate that this throttle was working on Win7 64 (that I have), and others who decided to simply mod it with new cards or switches.
I'd like to be sure though.
EDIT 2 : Now I'm confused. On one of the pictures the seller posted the throttle seems to be connected to a female gameport. Aren't sticks usually with male ports ? I emailed the seller to see if it was the throttle's cable or a USB-gameport cable.
