ryyy Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Hello all. I was wondering if anyone knows if any company that makes something like a flight stick and throttle stand. For reference, I don't have the skills or knowledge to build something on my own or design a pit. I've been yearning to have the ability to mount my flight stick between my legs and have my throttle positioned next to my desk chair on the left for that "feel". I think it would be good for those who cannot afford to create a pit like I!
HitchHikingFlatlander Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I bought and modified a playseat a few years back and it's served me well since. It was designed for a race wheel and pedals but with a little work I added a solid stick mount and two small side consoles. They now make flight versions of their chair setups. Plenty of alternatives out there to playseat depending on how much you want to spend. http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad

Yea, I did the same with my playseat..made adjustments to the surroundings..but their new Sim seat looks sweet just abit pricey...:music_whistling: www.virtualtuskegeeairmen.com

HitchHikingFlatlander Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Damn that's really nice. How's your chair for comfort these days? I'm thinking of replacing some of the foam in mine. http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad

Still fine can sit for hours in it, which I have.. Not too sure of a new design now..might just remake the same old one in the current picture with a few adjustments..and make one for a friend who is keen on Flight Sim's now..he just bought the DCS platinum..series..a new simmer coming on board soon..:thumbup: www.virtualtuskegeeairmen.com
