Hi all,the X52 HOTAS from Saitek ist now out for some while but I haven't found too many opinions on it. In some of the few reviews I have found it is descriped as "unprecise". How is this HOTAS compared to - for example - the old X35USB? Is there any alternative to the X52 (besides the X45)? Thomas

No X52 users out there??? :)

Hi Thomas, I'm sorry I can't offer any help but maybe try the other hardware forum in the 'Microsoft' section? Here's an active thread about joysticks going on over there: http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...=2554&mode=fullHope this helps, good luck and kind regards Jaap

Thomas,I picked up the X52 to use with Aerosoft's Seahawk and I quite like it. With all the blue LED's it's a bit flash with the lights down, but the system is solid. I'll be a repeat Saitek buyer.http://home.earthlink.net/~pmhemm/Hemm_Signature.jpg
