HOTAS and trim dilemma
I’ve read carefully two recent threads about hotas sets, and came to the conclusion that Ch fighter stick, Ch pedals and throttles are probably the best choice for my tastes. The only thing I don’t like in Ch thottle is (if I’m not mistaken) the absence of rotary controls for trimming. I’ve tried them on Saitek X52, and I was really impressed (while the stick itself impressed me much less). However, I’ve found on sale a complete X52 (throttle + stick) costing less than the Ch throttle alone.
Has anyone actually used a Saitek throttle alongside a Ch fighter stick?
Talking of pedals now, should I expect the same quality difference between Saitek and Ch pedals, as is the case of sticks? The difference in price is noticeable, but not decisive.
Thank you all, guys!
