Joystick blues...!

...Innit a buggar when the love of your life decides she doesn't wanted to be connected to you any more...!

Now I'm not talkin' about my ex Missus, but my lovely,

Have you opened her up to have a look, maybe it's something as simple as a disconnected wire

Thats happened to my old GaamePad since I installed a Cyborg 3D... Damn...
Dan  :(

can i take it from your post that you either had some communication from your ex, or today has some specific meaning:)

...Innit a buggar when the love of your life decides she doesn't wanted to be connected to you any more...!

innit just LOL much cheaper though

P.S. If the choice lies between buying a nice new, shiney, sooper-dooper joystick, or buying an engagement ring for your new girl-friend, guess what my advice would be...?
LOL...LOL...LOL...!

i'll remember that next time it comes up LOL
Since this joystick has the Mr Fozzer seal of approval i may have to pick one up myself as my current joystick of over 5 years is on its way out

The thing that's great about the Fozcat is this....sometimes you want to laugh with him, sometimes you want to laugh AT him, sometimes you want to hit him in the head with a ping pong paddle, and other times I think he just needs a hug.  lol  

If there's one member here whose posts I just know will make me crack up, it's gotta be Fozzer.  lol

Hi Craig...!
I meant to include this text in my previous post, but got so excited looking at the picture that I forgot all about it... ...!
So here goes... ...!

Hi Craig...!

Logitech Wingman Force 3D, Force-Feedback, Joystick.
Supplied with a seperate Power Pack....(you need a spare 13 amp socket!).

Having tried this stick for a few hours, I'm extremely impressed...!
It's well made, very comfortable, (cosy!), to use, and much lighter than my old Microsoft Force-Feedback Pro joystick, (and half the cost!).
I've re-assigned the buttons as shown for my most important functions, (GA aircraft).

Trigger (Button 1) =  Brakes.
POV      = Look around. (As you do!).
Button 2 = Trim nose up. (Hold).
Button 3 = Trim nose down. (Hold).
Button 4 = Flaps up. (Tap one step at a time).
Button 5 = Flaps down. (Tap one step at a time).
Button 6 = Cycle scene.
Button 7 = Cycle window.

Note that it seems VERY important to get a "Force-Feedback" type of joystick to get a non spring-to-centre, (floppy), action, even if you don't need the "Force" action!
And it MUST have a "Twist" action for rudder control!
Most, (all), game joysticks seem to be spring-to-centre types with no "Twist" function...no good for Flight Simulators...!!!
...Try before you buy...!
..and to you Craig, it will cost you...

Cheers Mate
Have a nice evening

I also love my M$  Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro, but  the power cable got damaged and i cant get a new one.
