What control device are you using? Just curious...

Hi all,
Using my trusty MS Sidewinder.Had it 10 years and not had any problems so far.


Oh i can only wish...my MS Sidekicker died on me a couple of years ago and i'm still in mourning :icon_lol:. I tore the twister out of joint (can't fly & fight with no rudder) and the "doc" wrote 'er off as a TL.
 
Thrustmaster Top Gun Afterburner II, which has served me well. I'm still irritated Thrustmaster stopped making this one, since I'm finally starting to wear this one out and now am investigating what to buy next.
 
Saitek Cyborg EVO. I keep a piece of electrical tape over the annoying little blue light on top of the stick. I bought it because it was the only decent stick I could find at my local store on the day that I needed a new one.

Still going strong after several years.
 
I use an old MS Sidewinder , but this times (very) often I use the mouse with the speed x4:icon31: ,sometimes 10-20 m upper the sea and ground level ,very fun too ,that it's a way to quickly fly up around some huge sceneries .....
......but after some fly like this I find these old planes terribly slow...:d
 
Me too with the old MS Sidewinder. I bought two used for about $10 each. I was ashamed to admit it at first.

If I could have found another MS Sidewinder when I was in the market for a new stick I would have bought it- instead of the Saitek.
