Broke for a third time, i asked money back, used the 100 to buy a saitek x52, and kept the 200 for a new GPU.
You say you mix it all up? Saitek and G940?
YES! I use no profiles tough. il2 needs litle over 20 keys, half of my saitek throttle is unassigned.
I can buy either one of them and have an old stick from before. So which one should I take? G940 or Saitek x52?
Defenetly Saitek. if you want ot keep the stick, saitek throtle and rudders are killers
G940 gives me rudder, stick and throttle. But the Throttle sucks after 50-80 hours? Why does it break down?
R1 and R2 ( the trimm axes) wh oare very well placed, start to produce giberish.
Saitek x52 only gives me Stick and Throttle, unless I spend alot on Rudder as well. Is this more Quality?
well, if you are keeping the stick, i sugest the 200 euro ivestement on a x52 + rudders.
I want a G940 or a Saitek x52, and it needs to work for years!
I cant tell you how much the saitek stick lasts, is unused on the box. The rudder has had 3 or 4 years of use, it has lost some of its initial stiffness sadly, but its still great. the saitek throtle his being used for 6 months now, it has "some" giberish on the axes, but its not envolving, and no spikes, so its doing ok.
The g940 stick seems to be immortal. trust me a FF his put im much greater stress than any other stick, and it still feels brand new.
