Recommended Posts

From Reddit and Check Six. It is here on these forums somewhere but I couldn't find it. Sorry if a repost.

 

Looks like pedals and new sticks for the Hornet and P51 going by the image. Happy days indeed.

 

:pilotfly:

A Hawg and a Viper. To go. Thank you.

It would be great if they follow the same path of the steering wheels with interchangeable grips from different aircrafts, using the same base like they do with the racing simulation line. Also, a good throttle with rotaries for radar and antenna elevation using hall sensors instead of bad quality pots. Well, let's wait and see!:joystick:

It will certainly be interesting. I would still like to see flight pedals from them, but I am not hopeful.

Didn't even notice that. I'll adjust that to a glimmer of hope. :)

I hope they bring out a hotas with more hats and axis than the warthog, i'd love something with the build quality of the warthog, with the physical amount of functionality the x-55 has without software...

Quite fascinating! It'll be interesting to see what they come up with. The lack of TM pedals since the RCS (that didn't even feature toe brakes) is obvious.

 

So, a new line of TM pedals?

 

A new Stick/Grip, Warthog compatible?

 

Warthog extensions?

 

Completely new HOTAS?

 

New, cam-oriented Stick interior with no more stiction?

 

A replacement for the (relatively) terrible Warthog Throttle slew cursor?

 

An updated TARGET software that supports multiple virtual/physical devices?

It certainly would be nice to see some updates/improvements, including that one, to TARGET.

It's an F-15C in the top left of the pic but yeah the aircraft carrier location is going to cause some hype.

It does say a Squadron of joysticks - no mention of a corporation of yokes in there!

 

I do hope they're going to take lessons from the private developers, and the outstanding engineering they have come up with.

 

A force feedback facility in a joystick with decent metal gimbals, screw-on extension tubes and hall sensors throughout would be the absolute minimum I'd expect from market leaders like Thrustmaster - but I dare say it's a forlorn hope! I don't for a moment think they'd come up with anything like an affordable cyclic and collective built to those standards too.
