Somehow good news: the confirmation of the exclusivity of this first batch of joysticks from Paccus. If you visit their web:
http://www.paccus.com/ you can read just above the price "The first exclusive, numbered series of Hawks/Falcons will be ready for shipping by June 2011". Maybe that is the reason for such pricing policy. The clouds over the horizon are moving away, by now. Hope they do not have to come back afterwards. Engadin. P.S. Some additional info regarding the special features of these exclusive series included in the FAQ section of the Paccus web: http://www.paccus.com/forcefeedbackjoystickfaq Last edited by engadin; 05-13-2011 at 11:59 PM.

Tooo much dosh ..
Why don`t Microsoft get their head out their Rear and start selling the FFBII again or something similar but up to date . I would gladly dump the stick section of my X52 Pro for a supported 2011 version of the most fun flight stick ever made. It would be a case of FFBII011 Rules

€2,397 for just a stick..... They need a reality check and in addition a market research. hydraulics or no hydraulics, that thing ain't gonna sell well. I love the G940 apart from that it is obviously designed and botched together by low salary slaves in China.

They're reacting to the FFB which I'm sure is quite excellent but unfortunately it's the rest of the stick that's quite anemic. I mean seriously, what kind of lame button layout is that? If you are marketing the console segment than great, keep it simple and looking good through the cellophane packaging but for flight simmers who might actually cough up the money for it you'd think they could have done at least a little bit of market research. I also notice that it doesn't seem like they kept the whole cheap looking plastic chrome but instead used a cheap looking plastic look.

When I see a comparison to MSFF2, and by pilots that actually fly simulators (what did they test this on in the first place, FSX???) I will take it seriously. Still - no matter how good it is, for that kind of money I can buy 2 PCs that will run CloD on max settings. And then some!

Look at this listing for a Cessna 172
http://www.controller.com/listingsde...WK/1201705.htm Now... let me see I could only buy 5 of these joysticks, maybe 2 joysticks and 2 sets of pedals or I could buy a WHOLE AIRPLANE. Last edited by nearmiss; 05-26-2011 at 03:07 PM.
