Just read that this Flightstick features 'rumble' but not mentioned in the spec or advertisements. I have 'vibration' turned off and hence didn't notice it. Mad Catz requested that my stick be returned directly to them rather than the seller Amazon. Satek Tech support were suprised to hear that it had developed a fault within hours of use.
Update: (this is the only review that comes up on Google) so for the benefit of anyone reading this thread I will update the Saitek/Madcatz response and level of support.
Madcatz have emailed me to confirm that they will be replacing the FLY 9 and that mine is undergoing analysis to determine the reason for its premature failure. Hopefully, this is due to a rogue assembly error rather than an inherrant design fault.
The replacement will be with me in the next day or so.
Confirmation via email that rechargeable cells can be used without affecting flight performance but expect to replace/recharge more frequently. 'Use of' not mentioned in Instruction booklet.
