I'm interested in getting a stick and throttle for some BF2 and FSX action.
I've been looking at the Saitek X52 Pro...looks interesting...
I bought the Saitek X52 Pro and their Pro Rudder pedals last week after my TM Cougar finally stopped working ... I'm very happy with it, much lighter feel than the Cougar, but probably easier to use accurately in FSX than the Cougar was, hovering stationery in Helicopters is much easier, this will be useful in some of those Acceleration missions where you need to use the winch to rescue or pick up cargo.
Its even easier to set up than the Cougar for game configs, have not tried it fully in Falcon 4 AA, Lomac, or IL2 1946 appart from to just make sure the controls work OK, but I don't see any problems there.
Great value for money I'd say ... you wont be dissapointed.
PS: the throttle MFD comes with a nice profile for FSX to get you going.
