Two things I don't think I will like at this Logitech (I didn't put my hands on one but a good friend has one for more than a week and told me how it is)
1. The trimmers are analogues... Why not made of wood? What's wrong with digital? What's wrong with a mouse scroll? You have a fine axis with good increments and a quick reset to origin at the ready. There are a lot of digital knobs out there... why not use them? Why not put a stupid chip to even connect the trimmers to the force feedback and actually move the control column via force feedback front-backwards or left-right? Oh... i see... some have a fetish for the infinite adjusting "powers" of an analogue axis... well... Any analogue axis has no more than 256 values (more than enough actually) cause that's how Direct input is designed. And also, direct input limits the number of axis per controller to 8... which causes the problems in X52 cases and Cougar (both that i own). The greatest fact is that all analog potentiometers gets crappy by time and reliability would be a good reason to switch to digital... like the main axis... 2. The trimmers have no central point or the central point is very unclear. Otherwise, my friend told me that the new Logitech is in another league when it comes to quality of materials and execution. I had an X52 and now I use an X52 Pro and I can tell if X52 was smelling a bit of a let down in quality of materials used... X52 pro looks like a cheap copy. Maybe i will buy a Logitech... but only if they fix the trimmers... at least make them have a central point more clear.
