Any other flightstick options for the Xbox 360?

Ace Edge is better (in my opinion), but it is more expensive.

quick question

does the rudder control on the ace edge map to the throttle thing underneath the handle?

In otherwords all we have to do to control ALL thrust is move the slider up and down?

If I get this correctly, you asking how to control throttle on Ace Edge?
There are 2 items in Ace Edge - on is flightstick (plane controls), the second is throttle.

It seems, that the Ace Edge flight stick for the XBox360 has a very large dead zone (digital?). I think, I buy the game for the PS3 by using the T-flight stick Hotas X from Thrustmaster.

It depends on the game. I use it on Raiden Aces and it has a adjustment in game where you can have zero deadzone if thats what you want, so its not in the stick itself. Its in the the game's programing.

Dammit, I want one of those! I've got the Aviator, but I'm afraid it's just going to frustrata the crap outta me with all we need to do with this game and limited buttons/access.
The one the PS3 can use needs to make it's way to the 360 as well, it looks pretty nice.


Anton: have you guys had any new sticks to test for people with your game? Heard of any new ones on the way? I seem to collect these things, wouldn't mind adding another.

Maybe Anton can pull some strings with Hori corp and have them release a black Ace Edge stick in a limited edition IL-2 combo package. Call it like "Real Man's Ace Edge Flightstick" for REAL MEN who play IL-2. Not those girly men who use the grey and green ugly ace edge stick

As if anton didn't already have too much to do to get IL2 released.

Hi Anton,
could your team test all flight sticks on the market, which are compatible to XBox360 and PS3? There could be problems with some flight sticks, and I don't want to buy a flight stick, where the right programming is missed between the game and the flight stick in acc. to Desode as shown in my posted Youtube video.

Thank you in advance!

I'm told by another member that there may be a software update coming along so that a wider range of usb joysticks can be used on Xbox 360. Any truth in that, and will my . old, cheap but effective Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick be one of the lucky ones?
Guess it was inevitable that Il2 fans on Xbox would be as demanding as they were on the PC....

If you have a look around the forum, you'll see that the mystical 360 patch is just that: possibly just myth and legend and this stage. There is still optimism for it, but as times moves on, the hope becomes less.
