Yskonyn Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 how about forum search and or google? :D Seriously, how can anyone give any info if you did not ask anything you want info on? The cookie cutter counter is on the other side, please.

Yskonyn Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 the strong and not so strong points about both, right along with their differences have been mentioned to death now in countless of threads. I am sorry, but you're just being lazy here. A quick search on here with both as keywords gives you all the info you need.

celticcoho Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 considering to replace my x-65f with a hog stick... any1 done it who may be able to feed me info? Hello TeeJay82, I have both, TM Hog is better for a10, If you have Rudder petals? X65 if you dont!! I like x65 for f16 stick, but havent tried the hog stick with other A/C yet. Not having to program all in A10-C is a plus also.Cheers, Jim:pilotfly: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Celticcoho (OriginFreedom) WIN 7 64 bit, I7975 at 3.6ghz,X58 Classified 3 Mobo, 6gb Corsair 2000 ram, 2 ea ATI 5870 Eyefinity 6 2gb's , 27" Ultra Sharp,(main view), 3 23"touch screens , Tm Warthog, Saitek Combat Pedals Track IR 5,:D JIM.:book:
RogueRunner Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 I did exactly that. Reason, I missed the moving stick. I think the X65F is a great stick, i just had this annoying habit of resting my flying hand on the base in straight and level and on this stick it would cause a roll input. Cannot fault the stick otherwise. Still have it also, cannot get myself so far to sell it. With the price of ammunition these days do not expect a warning shot.
Sticky Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) I agree with you yskonom about search, but the opinion of someone who has or had both is worth more then just comparing opinions with strong and not so strong points from google/forum searches. There is however atleast 2 posts already from owners having both (roguerunner made a post, and someone else). IDK if they show up on search though. IIRC roguerunner preferred the X65 and the other dude preferred the warthog. That makes 1-1. With cetliccoho 1-2 Edit: Not sure anymore about the score :) roguerunner has changed his mind and prefers WH? Edited December 6, 2010 by Sticky [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My Sim/Game CV: Falcon 1,3,4.

Succellus Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 I think the culprit of warthog is that it is very A10 oriented (doh) and the A10 Throttle ain t that much friendly for out of hip height cockpit. There s also the comfort bubble breaking syndrome, when any change is usually received with a bit of skepticism (unless ita a salary raise) and fear, because it means readaptation. So far even with those (the very few ones) that voiced they prefered old stick, i saw none turning back, and even less selling the warthog, so this says something about it. So far there s no used Warthog on E-bay which is also a good sign. HaF 922, Asus rampage extreme 3 gene, I7 950 with Noctua D14, MSI gtx 460 hawk, G skill 1600 8gb, 1.5 giga samsung HD.

LawnDart Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 There was a thread a week or two ago called "HW vs. X65", or something close to that......
