custard~SPARTA~ Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 @Halli~SPARTA~ made a comment he may look to buy a Joystick sometime in the future, I noticed this youtube review and thought it would be worth a few minutes for anyone looking to buy anything. I got my X52 for a space game and the only real world aircraft I honestly want to fly are helicopters in Arma, for that reason I am mostly interested in a Thrustmaster t1600m because it's lefty or righty and would give me a HOSAS setup I am also considering making myself a set of pedals (actually coopting my workmates to make for me as I am working in an engineering factory ) for flying helicopters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halli~SPARTA~ Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Yeah I just need to save up for something as I bought myself a Deer Rifle for Christmas... Savage .270 XR with a Weaver scope. No I did not really need it but with our new Commie/Socialist President coming in I felt it was an Investment for the future. I will get a new (wheel and throttle)setup sometime this year. With that said though BMUSHAL is buying Microsoft flight simulator so maybe he will buy himself a new system and I can get his hand me downs.....

Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Is that a Savage Axis XP, I cant find an XR. If BMUSHAL/Nukem58 are the same person and wants to fly in FS2020 we will have to organise a little flight together and if he is into flight Sims he should look into DCS as well.

Halli~SPARTA~ Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Yes (Axis) and Yes (Nukem) Mr. Zeno I forget what Moniker he uses . Nukem, Bmushal who knows what's next! I ask those guys to read our forums more and get crickets chirping. I'll let him know about the other flight sims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Mr Halli, the Savage Axis 2 is available in France, it costs €650 , with the Weaver scope. At current exchange rates that is $788 (including tax), As usual far more expensive than the price in the US, I don't know the local tax rate in your state. But back to the HOTAS, for flight sims I use the X56, for space sims I use an Xbox Controller. I haven't played a lot of Star Citizen so a gamepad is probably inadequate.

custard~SPARTA~ Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 Star Citizen, keyboard and mouse is a good experience to fly from one destination to another, probably the xbox controller would be a similar experience From what I understand to fight AI HOTAS is good but the best setup for PVP would be HOSAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
