I have the Saitek X52 Pro and the Saitek Rudder pedals and I love them!! :)

if i might offer a suggestion... granted it may be a bit pricey at first but leave plenty of growing room....


Saitek Pro Flight Yoke System - http://store.gameshark.net/PRO_Flight_Y ... k/3273/176

Throttle Quadrant - http://store.gameshark.net/PRO_Flight_T ... k/3276/176

then save up for the ProFlight Switches - http://store.gameshark.net/Pro_Flight_S ... k/3395/176

or the Radio Panel - http://store.gameshark.net/PRO_Flight_R ... k/4540/176



stack them all together for the ULTIMATE flight yoke/switches/radio set up anywhere.
