Yes, the magnet mod is almost compulsory for the x52 IMHO. I did mine with paper clips to support the magnets which was very easy to install.
Regarding the spring tension I went the other way and reduced it using some cable ties. Reducing the tension makes the centre much easier to handle accurately. |

my x52 just died, lights kept flashing on and off, had it less than a year, throttle still working, took the stick apart and found broken wire and fried circuit board, will be going with ch fighterstick.

ch fighter stick is the best stick i have ever owned, get a second hand x52 and use the throttle, with some pedals you then have a good setup.

Well ive made my choice...G940
Ive read bad reviews on all the sticks.even the Warthog with its intermittent throttle problem...i guess its like anything, for 1 bad review there are 50 people that love the product.. I hope i dont regret it, only time will tell What helped make my mind up is the FFB, never had it before and if its as good as they say it is im looking forward to trying it.. I paid £199 delivered so it was £50 more than the Saitek setup... Ive had the X52 didnt like it Ive got the CyborgX 6 months and its all over the place Always had Logitech stuff and still have the Speakers..good quality for the ££ Il certainly keep you updated.. Anyone got any ideas on how I hide this setup from the GF? |

The throttle R1 and R2 spikes after several hours of usage my or may not appear. Be prepared to exchange your G940 rather often - but when you've modded it, no warranty, so you might have to mod thet, too (see here) Artist Last edited by Artist; 07-28-2011 at 11:48 AM. |

Ive had several x52's from the very first to the Pro, the pro version i had was awful in that the joystick was very notchy I tried all manner of fixes but none worked. I managed to get hold of another one which was alater version and its been sweet as nut. I think that on the whole £150 for the complete set is a good buy.

Oh well too late now, guess i have to find out for myself.
there seems to be a few issues with the g940 as there are with a lot of sticks but Im hoping they are small enough for me to not notice or compensate for and hopefully will get addressed with firmware.. |
