Or if you like ulta reliability then CH fighter or combat stick with their pro-thottle and throttle quad for more axis to bind to stuff and saitek combat pedals.

So you think perhaps the Saitek combat pedals then

That's really handy if you think they're the best regardless if the rest of gear, although I can't see them for sale anywhere.

I'm tempted to pickup the CH Quad Throttle now, as I don't have a separate throttle yet.

woot? Ch wants to make a A-10 stick replica too?

What's so special about A-10 sticks.

Why not a good WW2 era stick and throttle set-up?
I think it's a gap in the market isn't it?

Very small gap - dont interest the major brands (Saitek, CH, Thustmaster, Logitec...)

Some guy made they own.

Take some drawings:



And original manual for KG-12B:

Take some metal an carve you grip:

Or get 1:1 plastic model of KG-13B:

Assemble and make a mold plug and replicate in more resistant resin:

Or cast in metal, like this guy.

Realist, the more WW II era look that you can buy is this...



And, the simulation market shout for more "Jet Fighter" sticks, ie. A-10 look from CH...

Ghodan,

I know (since 2005).

Interesting, the initial proposal mentions Oleg.

But, due high quality (all metal, ball bearing, hydraulic dampers..), 1:1 replica, small production, the prices are prohibitive to "mere simmers"...

So, people with skill, machinery (and money ) build their own.

This is not replica like Tarmac Aces, but a more "budget" option to get one KG-13 - grip only, to assembly in your stick base. Around 100 Euros (without switch's):

I just ordered a Thrustmaster Warthog setup. I hope it performs better than some of their past high end sticks. I’ll use my MSFFB2 as a backup.
