# TrackIR7 which again is a Beta test model and cant be seen in pix due to security, its basically 4XtrackIR5 models strapped to head

# Power Supply is connected directly to wall socket so nice and easy and no worry of not enough power though you may want to ring the national grid up and warn them when you first power up

# Joystick is a FFB electric shock pad with 1 button for machine gun...you die you get a force feedback jolt and an electric shock of 26Volts...You dont dive into furballs i can assure you of that

# Sound in a mono speaker capable of 2 channels..great sound

# The keyboard makes noices

Well, even though the stock CX-40 stick is nice I think you should look for some after market stick like the Tac 2
