ShaggyRS6 Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 All, I currently have the T- Master Stick and Throttle, I have the A-10 stick. I was wondering if there are any benefits at all in getting the new F-18 stick or just keep using the A10 stick. I will say I am mostly flying the Heli's, the Harrier and F18. Any advice would be great.

ShaggyRS6 Posted June 18, 2020 Author Posted June 18, 2020 Thanks, this helps, infact what I got out of it was that my money would be better spent with one of those pod setups!

Ala12Rv-Tundra Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 If it fits your budget, go ahead, Hornet stick feels great and you will have a direct replica for Hornet, Harrier and F-15 modules. To me it feels more comfy with the piece of stuff for your right thumb over the CMS. It´s slighty lighter than Warthog. I got a second hand unit by about $140 but it´s even worthy for full pricetag. I have been flying the Huey too with this stick, but mostly out of laziness ;) Right after spending a decent amount of time using the SuperCarrier module, my flight time got massively reduced, and decided to swap grips, put back the Warthog and flying now and then the Viper. i5 8400 | 32 Gb RAM | RTX 2080Ti | Virpil Mongoose T-50 base w/ Warthog & Hornet sticks | Warthog throttle | Cougar throttle USB | Orion 2 throttle base w/ Viper & Hornet grips| VKB T-Rudder Mk IV | Oculus Rift S | Buddy-Fox A-10 UFC | 2x TM MFDs & 1x WW DDI | 2x Bass shakers | SIMple SIMpit chair | WW TakeOff panel | Andre JetSeat | WW Hornet UFC | WW Viper ICP FC3 - Warthog - F-5E - Harrier - NTTR - Hornet - Tomcat - Huey - Viper - C-101 - PG - Hip - SuperCarrier - Syria - Warthog II - Hind - South Atlantic - Sinai - Strike Eagle - Phantom - Mirage F1 - Afghanistan - Irak
