Cowboy10uk Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago Hi folks. After Years of great service, my Jetseat has finally waved a white flag and died. ( actually I ripped the cable out after getting it caught under my chair ) So I’m now in the market for a replacement. Since the Jetseat came out I see a few other options have appeared and sadly the Jetseat become harder to import. Have any of you got any recommendations about which seat to pick up. I would obviously want one that matches if not out performs the haptic feedback of the Jetseat. Looking into them myself I’m thinking either jumping through hoops to import another Jetseat or the Next Level HF8 Pro. I did try the original HF8 last year but found it to be rather disappointing compared to the Jetseat. Haptics felt weak and I couldn’t really get much feeling from rotors when starting up my Helos. I understand the Pro is a significant upgrade from the original, BUT after my first experience I’m hesitant as there’s not a great deal of reviews out there for it. Should I just stick with what I know. software wise I obviously have the Simshakers for Aviators software for the Jeatseat, which I understand is also compatible with the HF8 pro. Any advice from owners or either the latest Jetseat or the HF8 Pro would be highly appreciated.

Watched a direct comparison a while back, that also tested it in DCS, while unfortunately most other reviews have racing in focus obviously. Price has dropped from ≠USD350 to ≠USD220 here in Norway now. So I guess I'm getting one. The name escapes me, but I think there's another software that works with it in DCS too, while it's not free. Cheers!

Cheers! Sorry I meant being used with DCS. Quite a few reviews with racing sims I will admit. However as it’s Specifically DCS I’ll be using it with, then it’s how it runs with that, which is important. Hence asking the experts here, who will have the experience with DCS and the haptic seats. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:
