WildBillKelsoe Posted May 3, 2011 Author Posted May 3, 2011 guys how would you compare this to the G940? http://www.simw.com/t-flight-hotas-x.html ;) is it hall effect or springs and coils business? thanks for your reply... AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
BigBANGtheory Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 so basically the TM Warthog (though you might have a problem with the throttle PCB having to be fixed under warranty) is pretty much the best stick around as of Q2 2011?

Absolutely no question in my mind that's true (speaking in context of out of the box mass produced kit). Now before anyone jumps on me about cost you also absolutely pay for every bit of that designation.

Probably from years to come(i hope), as CH won t realease her version for public. If i would have to do some ranking: 1) TM warthog 2) X65 3) Whatever.

Succellus Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Its hard to say... T flight hotas is aimed at entrance market. G940 is aimed at elite market, the problem with the G940 its the fact it has so many problems its considered a failure by some (or the market in general?). So its hard to compare. What options would you have ? 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.

ZQuickSilverZ Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) Noc every review I have read on that product (the T-Flight Hotas) says its high quality. Every person that I have come across that has owned it has been happy with it. I don't know real specific details about it (one thing is the stick and throttle separate into two units). For the price I say give it a try. Edited May 4, 2011 by ZQuickSilverZ I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original. "Off with his job" Mr Burns on the Simpsons.

WildBillKelsoe Posted May 4, 2011 Author Posted May 4, 2011 my options are either a G940 or a T-flight HOTAS. I'm more inclined to the Thrustmaster lineage since they are producers of the warthog, so I think quality is granted. Logitech are peripherals (IIRC) and based on your views of it, and views of youtubers I've read, I'd say I'll go with the HOTAS..

RAF74_Raptor Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Bought it used it. Now its in my closet imho its not a good stick. I came I saw I got blown up by a SA-8:pilotfly: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] http://www.firstfighterwing.com/forums/content.php

S77th-konkussion Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Yep- with limited options- if that's what you gotta do, just get it and make the best of it. [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=43337&d=1287169113[/sIGPIC]
WildBillKelsoe Posted May 6, 2011 Author Posted May 6, 2011 no I'm getting the T-Flight stick.. I'd rather pay cheap than pay a hefty sum over a dead thing like the G940..

Scarecrow Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Sound reasoning, the G940 was the biggest hardware anticlimax ever without doubt. Aimed at the high end with worse precision than anything else on the market, to its credit i really like the stick and FFB in prop sims. You'll never regret a Warthog once they're availble in your area.
