I too use a pad for BoP, but I will probably get an Saitek AV8R -02 for Birds of Steel after some feed back from people and if everything is working right. I'm not going to switch before then 'cos I don't want to break it on BoP before BoS comes out. The AV8R having a reputation for having rather fragile plastic rudder twist. But its so much cheaper than the Saitek cyborg fly 9 which gets faulty wiring, and the second hand only very expensive Hori Ace Edge. So I think the AV8R is the one I will get.

Thanks for the reply, I think I will also wait for BOS to be released before going for flight stick.
How do flight sticks get passed the quality control phase when there is no way to brake, it's not exactly a minor control or is it that BOP's configuration is wrong?
