CallsignFrosty Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Hey guys and girls, I am wondering if anyone on here has previously purchased a Wheel Stand Pro? I am looking at buying the Saitek Yoke version of the stand to use with P3D and Xplane. I use an X52 Pro with DCS I'm just making sure that I can use the stand for that too (I'm guessing there are screws to take out tho :/). Currently I am using a homemade wooden stand that will be sad to put in the loft as I'm quite proud of it! However, the adjustability of these Wheel Stand things seem to be a no brainer for me as I'm always switching between sims (for 1 flight in the NGX, then back to the georgian skies lol). Hope this made sense as I've just woken up :pilotfly: Thanks in advance
*Rage* Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I had it for a TM t500 wheel. It was very well made and easily and securely adjustable. Recommended. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 64th "Scorpions" Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 195.201.110.22
CallsignFrosty Posted August 17, 2015 Author Posted August 17, 2015 Thanks Rage, I have just been in touch with them via Email and apparently you can purchase an addition plate that remains attached to x52 so you can lift one stick off and lift the yoke on. Seems too good to be true ;)
FSKRipper Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I'm also a proud owner of the Wheel Stand Pro. These guys are great, you tell them what hardware you use and they deliver a fitting version. I use a version for the Saitek Combat rudder pedals and the TM Hotas with a small plate which carries only the stick. The quality is really good and the system weights 12,5 kg (~25 lbs) which ensures a safe stand. I can strongly recommend it :thumbup: i9 9900K @ 5,0GHz | 1080GTX | 32GB RAM | 256GB, 512GB & 1TB Samsung SSDs | TIR5 w/ Track Clip | Virpil T-50 Stick with extension + Warthog Throttle | MFG Crosswind pedals | Gametrix 908 Jetseat [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
CallsignFrosty Posted August 17, 2015 Author Posted August 17, 2015 Damn I just placed an order and didn't know they did a small plate... I like having the throttle to the side! I better try and change it... Thanks for the feedback Ripper.
jcbak Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I have the WS Pro with the WH Joystick plate......HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! The stand is solid as a rock.

CallsignFrosty Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 Ordered it yesterday, apparently the small plate doesn't fit the x52 pro so I had to go large. Got an addition top plate for the saitek yoke and panels. All it requires to change over is to undo the quick release and slide the tube out!
FSKRipper Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Yes the system is great, you can simply change the tubes and have multiple setups. The small plate came also with an extra tube. I cut it by 12cm and installed an extension for the Warthog stick. The only thing left for total immersion is the release of the Rift :music_whistling: i9 9900K @ 5,0GHz | 1080GTX | 32GB RAM | 256GB, 512GB & 1TB Samsung SSDs | TIR5 w/ Track Clip | Virpil T-50 Stick with extension + Warthog Throttle | MFG Crosswind pedals | Gametrix 908 Jetseat [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
