January 9, 200620 yr Hello,does anyone has a good recommendation for a small but practical joystick to carry while on travel?So I could kill some hotel evening time flying on my laptop when I spend long time on the road.a couple of years ago, I remember seing a sort of gamepad with two analog thumbstick and an analog slider that could be used for the throttle but I cant remember/find it nowadays. I think that could have dont the job.Thanks all. i7 930 @ 4.4 ghz water cooled (1.44vcore) | GA-X58A-UD7 | 6GB DDR3 G.Skills @ 840mhz CAS7| EVGA GTX 480 | 2 Intel 80GB SSD in Raid 0 | 1 TB Hitachi HD | Corsair TX750 PSU | Windows 7 x64 Ultimate | FSX w/acceleration | REX 1.0 | Ultimate Traffic II | Level-D767 & PMDG 747 | UTX-CAN | FSGenesis Mesh | ASA
January 9, 200620 yr I was looking (and I am still) looking for something similar the last two years. I was travelling a lot and I finally packed a regular Joystick with me... when I had to travel to Japan a lot.:)BTW.. there was something that would fit into the track thingi thats found in keyboard. you know that pencil erase kind of mouse control. I found a gadget that would sit in its place.. but I can't recall where.. and it was expensive If I remember right.There you go. I found it.http://www.micronavlink.com/microjoystick.html Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
January 10, 200620 yr Author I just found the gamepad I was refering to in my first post.http://cgi.ebay.com/Logitech-VIBRATION-Win...bayphotohostingas you can see there is a small slider at the top right which serve for the throttle plus the two analog thumbstick. I think I am going to try that and see what we can manage out of it.Marc i7 930 @ 4.4 ghz water cooled (1.44vcore) | GA-X58A-UD7 | 6GB DDR3 G.Skills @ 840mhz CAS7| EVGA GTX 480 | 2 Intel 80GB SSD in Raid 0 | 1 TB Hitachi HD | Corsair TX750 PSU | Windows 7 x64 Ultimate | FSX w/acceleration | REX 1.0 | Ultimate Traffic II | Level-D767 & PMDG 747 | UTX-CAN | FSGenesis Mesh | ASA
