williehayesjr Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Hi brothers and sisters, I have a question for you. Because the Thurstmaster HOTAS system is a little too expensive for me, can the Trurstmaster throttle be used with any other stick, like the Saitek X52 or must the Thrustmaster pair be the only option for stick and throttle use? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crash test pilot Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 The X52 stick does not work on its own, it must be plugged into its respective throttle. The warthog throttle is a standalone-device and works fine with any other standalone stick. So if you plan to use it with the X52, you need to run two throttles.

Weegie Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 As stated, just to add, if you are planning to use TARGET (either the script editor or GUI) you will onlly be able to use it for the throttle I don't know the X52, but you could pair them both for profiles using something like Joystick Gremlin or any of the other 3rd party applications for altering the behaviour of Dx buttons or keyboard commands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBStu Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I use a VKB Gladiator II and am very happy w/ it. It is one of the few w/ twist for rudder. And it's <$100 so a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
