Roy, did you decide on a set? I can't remember if you said so or not.

Yes,I bought the Combatstick,Ch Throttle quadrant and Ch pro pedals.

hope you get yours soon and Blampers:)

I remember you and that you used the x-52 from the Wop forum.I guess I will get my stuff during the first days of March.

With the 20% discount on CH hardware at a shop not so far from my city i will go full CH setup.

Just compared the centre force / returen to centre force / precise aiming between a Saitek X45 and a original core Cougar.
Man i never released that the Cougar is that bad.
The metal feel and sturdiness always mesmerize me never paying attention to what is bad/wrong with the Cougar (only knowing from forums that the pots will spike sooner then later)

I am going for:
CH Fighterstick .More buttons/4way switched to configure then combatstick.
CH pro throttle .Not really my favorite throttle but i will just blindly believe in the precision and build quality.
CH Throttle quad .More axis to config, adds extra 2way buttons to my setup. nice for bombers and advanced engine management stuff.
CH Pedals .... Not my favorite at all, but i somehow like to stick to one brand with gear i use. and its cheap now with discount.

Thinking about buying the CH Eclipse Yoke to for bombers. But maybe my wife will think i am going totally crazy coming home with 5 CH boxes :-P

Update:
Then thinking about it again... CH pedals compared to Saitek combat pedals is only 50 euro difference at this moment.
50 euro difference is not much if we are talking about the most badly sized rudder pedals on the market today and the most awesome rudder pedals (Saitek combat pedals) on the market today.

The "most awesome" are probably the simped F16.

Thats just too much :(

Simped are not the most awesome.
Because:
1) Price
2) Weight is to light you can kick them away as seen here at 0:20 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42J_kgH7geM

Saitek combat pedals are BIG (Huge)
149 euro (if you look for them not the official 200 euro price tag)
And a lot of metal parts.
I am not talking about the normal saitek pedals.
I am talking about this beast http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/compedals.html

Thank you ghodan for the link. I didn't know that Saitek had some new stuff now.

Is there any info about a hotas being worked on or just released?
