I'm digging the throttle on it, and wondering you guys will think it will be optimal for use in JTL. I want to have minimal to no use of the keyboard for flying my ship, so i was wondering what everyone thought.


Any help/opinions are appreaciated. If you dont like this one and would suggest something else, lemme know.

i just got the saitek x45 stick kinda similar with the big seperate throttles and all , was gonna go for the new one but couldnt justify spending that much 80 bucks was enuff for me...... this x45 works perfectly so i dont see why that wont work ...

it only looks flashy,frankly unless youre a good multitasker itll be near impossible to control your ship effectivly,should get a single unit joystick,but thats only what i think
