Daze Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I'm not 100% sure if this is posted in the right place, sorry if it's not. I currently use an X-52 and I'm looking to upgrade. However, I'm wondering if the Warthog is much better than the G940? I could afford the Warthog, however, if I buy it I won't be able to buy pedals for another 4/6 weeks and since the G940 is around £60 cheaper than the Warthog and it comes with pedals this makes me unsure on which one to get. I've seen there are problems with the G940, and I was wondering if there are any problems using it with DCS A-10C? Thanks [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.

I think I will get the Warthog. I plan on buying an obutto also, and the Warthog looks very nice centre mounted on the obutto :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.
P1KW Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Hi. A-10C: Warthog. Ka-50: G940. Not debatable. What more do you fly? :pilotfly: "If adventure is dangerous, try the routine. It is deadly." Paulo Coelho.

It was my uncle, who is actually a heli pilot in the Royal Navy, that suggested I try DCS: A-10C so I would like anything that will aid me in mastering it to try and impress my uncle (lol).

MTFDarkEagle Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Ka-50: G940. And why is this? What's wrong with the WH in the Ka-50? Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread

Thanks for your reply! IMHO the TM WH is the best option for DCS: A-10C.. I bought one eight months ago..the precision of the stick is amazing!..

Daze Posted August 22, 2011 Author Posted August 22, 2011 Thanks for the replies! I will definitely get the TM Warthog, hopefully order it tomorrow then order CH Pro Pedals next month sometime. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.

Thanks for your reply! Hello. If you fly in BS (trimmer), or IL2, or RoF, or CoD, (FSX, depends on aircraft), the G940 is the best option for the feedback of the FFB. The feedback improved more than any perceived improvement in precision. For A-10, LockOn2, Falcon, and reactors in general, Warthog, no doubt. If the Warthog had FFB, it would be just the perfect joy. Greetings. "If adventure is dangerous, try the routine. It is deadly." Paulo Coelho.
MTFDarkEagle Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 ...If you fly in BS (trimmer)... I must disagree with this. A friend of mine has a G940 and also the BS, and he let me fly on it once. He had it setup with FFB/trim. Though it worked nice, you cannot beat the feel and precision of the Warthog. The other trim logic is just something to get used to.

leafer Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 I would love to be burdened with your dilemma right about now; I would buy the TM. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
P1KW Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 I must disagree with this. ...and he let me fly on it once... Is it only once? :closedeyes: Ok. I respect your opinion. In my case, I appreciate much more, a realistic use of the trimmer in helos. And that's what I recommend. :thumbup: Greetings. "If adventure is dangerous, try the routine. It is deadly."

Cali Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 "cough" CH "cough" stick, throttle and pedals will cost you about $300, leaving $200 to buy something else. Plus with CH you won't have to worry about it not working. But if I had to choose between the 2 you said, I'd take the warthog. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED
Daze Posted August 24, 2011 Author Posted August 24, 2011 In the UK CH pedals + throttle + stick will cost me ~£350, where as the TM Warthog + CH Pedals will cost me ~£400. Worth the £50 extra, imo. Thanks for the replies and help, guys! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.

emenance Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 While Ill agree on all front that the TM is a better product from a superiour company I gota be honest and say that the g940 has been really cool in BS and I like it. I have not had it flake out on me yet. I did take the time to study the threads here and get it set up against a few working recommendations. It really has been great. ???
