Nice piece of simming hardware...

Postby fabiane » Fri Nov 30, 2007 3:15 pm

I just bought the Saitek pro flight throttle quadrant. @ amazon
And I wanted to recommend it. It's a real cool piece of hardware, not the cheapest, but well, you only life once.
I'm impressed how flexible it is. you can mount it in different positions and a you can change the levers ends. (3 black for three engine's thrust), or I've got 1 blue with a reversed axis for airbrakes and 2 black for 2 engine, because most of the planes I fly have 2 engines. I also had 3 engines (3x black ends) configured for my beloved threeholers. And for the GA guys:
1 black, thrust, 1 blue mixture, 1 red prop angle. You can also combine it with a 2nd quadrant for 6 levers. You can click them together.

Works with all joysticks.

Cheers,
Fabian

I'm flying mainly heavies, so what would I do with that?

The other choice would have been the saitek x52, but I love my logitech freedom 2.4 and I didn't want to retire it..

Cheers guys, have a nice weekand,
