To be fair, I only implied that you were borderline psychotic. I'm sure there's some pretty good pills you can get for that.

Where are the adjustments for the Saitek? On the stick itself, or are they in-game? Also, on a completely different subject, that -109F is alot of fun to fly. Sorry, I gush, but what a game!

A thread resurrection for a few questions.

What headset are people using with this (for xbl chat)? I've got the old 360 headset and it wont fit, been using the Halo2 special edition headset from my origional xbox instead.
And..
Had anyone tried seperating the throttle leavers? I did and only the right one seemed to do anything but that could be my total lack of observational powers.

The Saitek aviator for PC/XBOX ( and the version for PC/PS3) only has 1 throttle and not 2 like the original PC version of the joystick.

So I assume that you can't actually separate the throttle leavers.
I double checked on the Saitek online support site.

Also no SST programing on the PC, it uses the default XBOX 360 controller drivers . Will test drive mine tonight with IL2, keeping my fingers crossed for a smooth transition from PC IL2 to XBOX .

.
There's a piece of plastic joining the 2 throttle levers together and you can get it out (and back in) easy enough, whether the left side lever actually does anything at all is another matter.

1st impressions on using the Aviator with Il2 BoP :

- Throttle vs the base button placement fell a bit awkward to me, a lot of moving between the front and the back of the joystick. I'm using it on my lap, and moving the left hand to press a button while moving the controls usually ends up moving the whole joystick (my old MS Sidewinder FF back in IL2 PC days felt a lot more comfortable).

- Landing without breaks is not impossible (at least in realistic have to try Sim), as soon as both wheels are firmly on the ground I use left rudder - right rudder like a drunken driver to try and reduce my speed and usually stop before the end of the runway.

On a side note has anyone created a quick-guide with the functions for each button in the aviator ( a bit like the Thrustmater Hotas Il2 config picture)?
