Thrustmaster Hornet?


Recommended Posts

Do you think TM will make a HOTAS for the new ED sim? I'm tempted to get the TM Warthog but don't want to get it if a F-18 HOTAS could be coming out soon.

I'm just gonna configure my HOTAS to whatever plane they bring up. Otherwise the wife would have my nuts :). I fly Apache air assault with it,no problem.

F15 has the same style, so they couldn't go wrong with it. I'd buy just the stick, not the whole package

Highly unlikely for them to produce two high-end, low-volume products. Especially since it would be a tough sell at the same $500 price point when the warthog is currently available for much less. About the only way to pull it off and make money would be to stop producing the warthog.

 

EDIT: I would actually expect them to produce a set of pedals before another $500 stick/throttle combo.;)

I gave in and bought Warthog HOTAS after Falcon BMS was released, and I became reasonably sure that next DCS will be F-18 (plus my old stick was getting peaky anyway).

 

Twin throttles suits Hornet, and not sure I'd be missing any functionality that the actual Hornet HOTAS has - there'd be TARGET profiles up within days.

Where does everyone get off assuming the next jet will be a Hornet? Getting old...

 

 

Don't look at me!!:huh:

 

I'm still not convinced that the first Flying Legends plane is going to be the P-51D.:D

This won t gonna happen. If you look at the throttle structure, its sun systems far away from plug and pray, much less plug and play which is necessary for safety reasons agaisnt "dummies".

Other TM wasted lots on money to make a production line, its too freaking soon for them to release another product that may cut the grass of the warthog.

 

Promises of gripsfor TM Cougars never happened under the somewhat valid excuse of tech failures of the Cougar. But this is an ever valid argument as tech evolve.

 

So not designed to it.
