Can anyone identify the HOTAS that is being used in the Dano's video? (message #434) Sort of looks like Thrustmaster but I'm not sure. Not the stick in the freeze frame before the vid starts but the one being used by the guy in the wool hat a couple of minutes into the video. It has quite a number of 8 way hats.

Thanks

Looks like a Saitek X65f with the hats switched around.

Thanks Dano,
Good call! Yes, interesting to see the hats switched around. I wonder what the consensus is so far on the shaft sensing (not movement) feel is? Certainly geared towards modern jets - somehow I think it would detract from the stick movement of WWII fighters. Would be nice to see a long throw stick from between your feet.
Cheers.
