That's great to hear! I'm of course still waiting for my fighterstick heh. Flying with the pro throttle + pedals has greatly improved my whole experience by leaps and bounds. I'm shooting down more fighters than I ever have.

I'm going to have to jump into the control manager at some point, as after flying all today, I can see the need for multiple modes. Takeoff/landing, Combat, Cruising could all have their own settings on the same button = bliss.

If and when you jump into CH CM, I'd be interested to hear how you did. I'll probably mess with it over the weekend, but I'm almost certain it'll be like rocket science.
