Sounds like I've been flying FSX for too long
All the panels and switches are nice for realistic flying, but I can totally see how they would make me a pretty easy target while I fiddle with them. Those WWII pilots must have grown a third arm somewhere along the way! I'm looking at a X52-Pro (the Warthog and X65 are out of my price range); does anyone have any experience with it... other than buy it from a local shop so you don't waste gas exchanging it for a working one? Also... would a throttle quadrant be a good idea for the Complex Engine Management (CEM) with a HOTAS or is it unnecessary? Thank you for the replies... they're a great help!

A quadrant does the job, however a HOTAS like the Saitek X45/54 covers more bases. A HOTAS will give you rotaries and buttons. In IL2 I had the elevator mapped to one of the rotaries and prop pitch on one of the hats with 5% increments. Worked well for me in IL2 should be good in CoD too

If you are looking for a stick the MSFT FF2 is still floating around on various internet sites. You can probably pick one up. They last forever, built like a tank. You can probably find one that hasn't been used much, if at all. Last edited by nearmiss; 03-19-2011 at 08:19 PM. |
