Colt40Five Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 been using my X-52 for 3 years with no problems whatsoever. got a set of the saitek pedals last year, and so far they are awesome too! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
VMFA117_Poko Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 x52 standard, 2 years with one problem. Rotary 2 warn out - no center in the middle of axis :(. + i use pedals from logitech dfp for rudder - not the twist.
Breakshot Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 x52 standard, 2 years with one problem. Rotary 2 warn out - no center in the middle of axis :(. Poko, take the rotary apart, find the pot (should be real easy) And spray WD40 into it! That should fix the rotary probs! 1 Tim "Breakshot" Mytrofanov | C.O. of 51 ПВО / 100 КИАП Regiments | twitch.tv/51breakshot

zaelu Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I use now a X52Pro... just boght it. I have an X52 vanilla and a Cougar :) . [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least
JEFX Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I use CH FighterStick + CH ProThrottle + CH ProPedals(all USB) (along with Tir4 and a touchscreen with touchbuddy). CH products work fine, are very easy to program and versatile. One little problem : after many years of use, one button on my stick is not working properly any more (actually one side of a hat switch)... But besides this it works great for many years.

PoleCat Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I have a Thrustmaster F-16 FLCS and TQS that I'm now trying to get to be fully functional in XP. Has anyone used this setup in XP? I have a question about it. Thanks You would need the stickworks digital chips to get compatibility under XP for this HOTAS I beleive. AFAIK unfortunaltely they are no longer sold. You may be able to find some on ebay or something. These chips extended the life of my FLCS/TQS combo for some years before I switched over to the Cougar. Out http://www.104thphoenix.com/

These chips extended the life of my FLCS/TQS combo for some years before I switched over to the Cougar. Out Yes, I know about the stickworks chips. They make it easier obviously. But, it can be done without the chips in XP. You just have to download the profile to the stick in DOS with a DOS bootup disk. I just wanted to know if it's really necessary to connect a mouse to the TQS. I think I don't need to. So, I'm going to get an adapter for the keyboard to FLCS connection and then I'll know if it works. :)

experimental_pilot Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 So, I got my Thrustmaster FLCS and TQS working perfectly in XP! If anyone needs advice on how to do this, just ask.
VIKBELL Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Very happy with X 52.:megalol: There are 2 categories of fighter pilots: those who have performed, and those who someday will perform, a magnificent defensive break turn toward a bug on the canopy. Robert Shaw
HavokFlight Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 Another week till this closes and the X-52 is doubling any other stick. The two Couger choices together are an equal to the X-52 but if you added the Pro to them, the result would stay on the same pace. I think Konkussion's prediction to the poll will probably hold true. I do wish that I had seen the need to add an OTHER choice. When it finishes I will make an effort to comb the responces and find the total numbers of sticks used and what types they all were. Mechanical engineers design weapons ... civil engineers design targets.
