Free shipping

Good review

The only thing is that there is a cord that links the throttle and the stick together and it seems like it might be a problem for some people.

I can't decide whether to buy this one or the aviator. For some reason I like how the aviator looks but since the thrustmaster is recommended by Anton himself I will most probably go with the thrustmaster. I'm worried that being left handed though will give me a few probs but sometimes you just gotta bite the bullet. Thanks for the link trk29

I've got exactly the same problem. I am left handed also and I would not like to struggle to much to get used to the thrustmaster. I feel like this will bring some of my shooting accuracy down.

I really don't know what to do with those flightsticks (not enough choice).... any opinion?

Just look at it this way, in all planes the throttle is on the left, so with the HOTAS your more of a REAL pilot hehe.

I'm a lefty, and I've always used a right-handed joystick. Just takes an hour or so of getting adjusted. Heck, then you can say you're ambi-dexterous! Chicks dig that. >.> And Messerschmitts. Chicks dig Messershmitts.

Good find trk29, thanks for the heads up on the hotas. Think I will take advantage of that deal.

Hahaha, yes!!! One thing I would like to know is if you can control the rudder by twisting the stick as well as by using the small paddles on the back of the throttle? That's also a good point SleepTrgt, getting used to the thrustmaster will have its own excitement as well!
