LeMarchand Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Just had a deal for the Thrustmaster scroll across my screen. Don't know what CCL are like, but £27.86 + £2.99 postage. Thrustmaster T-flight Hotas X Joystick - 4160543 - CCL Computers
localzuk Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I've heard a lot of people recommending the X52 flight stick on twitch streams. SAITEK X52 Flight Controller Joystick Deals | Pcw

Thrustmaster T-flight Hotas X Joystick - 4160543 - CCL Computers CCL are decent. Good for monitors too I've heard a lot of people recommending the X52 flight stick on twitch streams. SAITEK X52 Flight Controller Joystick Deals | Pcw I love the look of this stick. My only problem is the location of the hat switch on the throttle seems a little unnatural. Might just be me though.
thepridster Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 ill happily recommend the fly 5 it does seem to come under different manufacturer names but is the same stick and elite recognises it as a Saitek joystick mine is a mad catz version. I have no complaints about it so far!
LosOjos Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Missus bought me the Thrustmaster T-Flight HOTAS for xmas last night; I have exactly one month to plead my case for an early present!

Available from: ED Tracker Anyone else who's looking to make one of these might want to check out this site: DIY Head Tracker Bundle - Electronics - Kits I nearly missed it on the ED Tracker website, but £9 for all the electronics you need is an absolute bargain - that's cheaper than the Arduino clone usually costs alone!

Dead easy to set up too if you've got a soldering iron and some very basic circuitry skills.

I have no complaints about it so far! I've got the F.L.Y. 5 too, no issues with it at all. Saitek are owned by Mad Catz, they've rebranded the F.L.Y. 5 quite a few times. Some people have complained that build quality's decreased since they branded Mad Catz, but I've had no issues with mine.
