compaired to solid CH Products gear saitek every saitek i have tried has had a cheap flimsy hard to use feel to em. they like the MS sticks just dont hold up when compaired with quality gear.
saitek and MS sticks are like driving a yugo all your life then suddenly getting behind the wheel of a ferrari when you try a CH stick...

I've been using the same Microsoft Sidewinder 3D pro for years but I've been looking to upgrade. Me thinks I found the replacement, now I have something to hunt for

I must be the only person that prefers my X-Fighter Thrustmaster. It's been 7 years since I bought it and it still rocks better than most joysticks. Nothin' beats the 10lb. base!! Plus it's not a rubber-band based system but based off of gears.. go figure!

This looks like a great controller. I have only seen it on a few european sites as well. I gonna spend a lot this fall. Upgrade to GeForce 6800, X52, JTLS, woo!

Saitek X-45 for about $70 -$80 if you want a throttle and stick combo...and dont want to spend $200 - $300 on a CH setup

I have the x45 joy stick and I will recommend this to anyone who still needs one. That x-52 one sure looks expensive though. lol
