OT: Stick recommendations...

[pupo162]

have the g940:

stick:

really good ergonomics, everything i nthe name of buttons and POV you need for il2. Very precise

FFB: its tricky, some planes go really nice with it, others not so. Basicly, i believe that the g940 as a good firmware on force feedback, but il2 needs some improvements on this area.

Throtle:

not that ergonomic
lots of buttons and 2 axis = all that i need and actually more than waht i use

it as 8 buttons in the base, wich are kind of annying, becosue , unless you want ot drop your gear in flight, rest your arm at any time.


Rudder:
never used it. I have a saitek rudder. I only tried to put my feet on the g940 rudder and instantly i felt my masculine element being squezed in beetween my legs. Saitek rudder keeps everithing confortably safe down there.


Overall

for its price ( 280 euros ) it is cheaper than Cougar (200 euro w/o pedals) or Ch products ( total would be arround 300 euro). Overall its a good HOTAS, but if i had t obuy a new one im not 100% sure i would come back to this.

I love the feel of the Saitek single spring sticks like the old Cyborg Gold, they have all the same tension all around with no stop gaps. Now a days they seem to be awfully flimsy though and don't last . I have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro now and hate it. It's reliable and built well but it's too stiff for my taste. I'd like to try a CH fighter stick and throttle to see how I like it. I already have pedals so I don't have to worry about those.
