Yep but was looking for something more precise.

 

They exist, but I suspect most of the decent ones are expensive industrial grade units.

ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP! Extreme 8GB, Corsair HX1000i, Phillips BDM4065UC 40" 4k monitor, VX2258 TouchScreen, TIR 5 w/ProClip, TM Warthog, VKB Gladiator Pro, Saitek X56, et. al., MFG Crosswind Pedals #1199, VolairSim Pit, Rift CV1 :thumbup:

Chproducts still make small joysticks. They are expensive and more geared towards industrial applications.

I use the speedlink Phantom Hawk right now till i am allowed to get on my wish list an X52 or smt. It is pretty cheap money wise and there are reassons for this.

 

All in all a fine simple stick but despite calibrating the sucker everyday it still does not center and i have to apply a bit right rudder and roll. Precision manouvers are nearly immposible. Landings are like trying to balance an egg in a sppon in your mouth while running with boiled eggs under the armpits through hot burning ashes.

 

OK it does not hurt that much but it sure gets you to sweat like you would.

I am sorry, but what is the difference between a 'normal' joystick like the TM warthog or the Saitek X55 and a 'small' joystick?

Ok, seems that there are no much alternatives, I'll start to build one then once interfaced I'll probably order the one suggested from Sokol1_br.

Anyway there is no much difference interfacing resistors potentiometers or hall sensors ;-)

 

I'll give you a feedback soon.

So after a while I took the decision to build both of them, the one with the taranis quanum and the fully and made.

 

For some details please have a looks to both videos.

Feel free to give me any feedback and suggestions please! :pilotfly:
