Jackjack171 Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Hello all, Has anyone gotten the F-16 HOTAS yet? I'm thinking of getting it and would like to know other thoughts, comments etc. Thanks! DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!

It looks pretty decent IMO. I've had my Warthog for some time now and it's still great, especially with the Tank Killer but the immersion of a full F-16 HOTAS is interesting. I also have the Virpil Tomcat grip. I like to get lost in the sauce lol!!!! 1 hour ago, Aa416295 said: Just got mine today. Love it so far... Awesome! Do you have everything mapped just like IRL? DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!
Aa416295 Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 I removed the extra hats on the stick. I have everything mapped as per the real aircraft, but have used a few of the extra hats for functions I always wished had hotas commands. (switching between A/G weapons, cycling waypoints, etc..) I had some frustration getting it all put together, but after several tries I figured it all out. Wish they had a video or something to show how to do it properly. 1

It was either that or the F/a-18 HOTAS for my Harrier/Hornet but I barely fly those. DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!

I hate my controls on the desktop! Which attachments do I get, the Taurus for the throttle and the Libra for the stick? Or is that even an option for the Orion? DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!
Durkin Posted February 15, 2022 Posted February 15, 2022 My F16 set finally got here yesterday after sitting in FedEx limbo for 2 weeks. Putting the throttle together took a little work to get it all adjusted correctly for smooth operation. They are now mounted on my desk and today I will be setting up the profile for them. I was here looking for a good profile so if anyone has one please share.

Jackjack171 Posted February 18, 2022 Author Posted February 18, 2022 So, I went onto the website to make a purchase and I cannot! When I put in my info to the "Add consignee information" part, it will not save! I am registered! Am I doing something wrong? DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry!
