Ok I'll check it out. Thanks mdee et al. I'm looking very forward to getting the stick, base and throttle. In the last week alone I had to resolder twice and found a broken, yet somewhat repairable, metal part on my TM stick. Everyone always talks about how much the like the TM being made of metal but it's clearly cheap pot metal. I think I'd take a good quality ABS plastic over the TM metal on the stick
