My old HOTAS in the day was a TM Cougar, game port + serial.
The new one is usb & looks good, still metal construction & a solid feel. But from what i have read, the hat switch isnt giving the intended views in Sim mode.
I dont really care for arcade mode, so i will hold off a bit i think until theres some more stick reviews in.
Irishmandkg did recommend a thrustmaster (US$30) from http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=...qid=1252290377
But im not sure if he is playing Sim or Arcade ><

If you're on the 360 I'd recommend the Aviator 2. There's no problem with free look and the rudder works just fine, not on or off as reported elsewhere (maybe that was the Aviator 3 or the PS3). There's a pretty big deadzone so you need to fiddle with some sensitivity settings to make it easier to make fine adjustments, but I think that's the same with all sticks (and the pad) on the 360.
Just curious, are most of the Aussies here veterans or noobs (like me)?
