May 7, 201214 yr The warthog stick/throttle is probably the best out there, 2nd to none. Alex Jevdic --- KORD A<380-----Love at first flight
May 7, 201214 yr There's a similar bump on the A330 Freighters Yep, although that is for different purposes. The MAX one is so that engines can be bigger. Some are saying that the MAX will be standing nose upwards but I am not sure. The A330F has it so its level. Pax A330 actually has some nose down attitude on ground. --Peter Fabian
May 8, 201214 yr If the Max isn't going to be out till 2017 most people will have moved on to the PMDG 777-300, 747-400 v 2.0 (Possibly a 747-800) and Maybe even a 787. Being 5 to 6 years from now FSX will probably have gone the way of FS9 and Xplane becomes the new greatest Platform. Xplane may not be what most people want right now but who knows in 5 years it maybe be the best Simulator platform available if they make it 64-bit in SP1 and have support for Dual or Triple Video Cards and Overclocked 8 - 16 core CPUs. I did not mention Microsoft Flight as a possible option because they abandoned True Simulation in Favor of an Xbox type Game that everyone can play. The Saddest thing as far as Flight Simulation goes is the Companies that make controllers. While Software and Computer Hardware gets better every year, the Controller market has remained mostly stagnant. Your only options for the NGX (Yokes) are either a CH or Saitek Yoke. After that your talking $800 to $1500.00 or more. It would be nice if these 2 companies opened their eyes and could see that there is a market out there for good quality flight simulator yokes. If they made one that was around $400.00 - $500.00 and had the quality of the Thrustmaster Warthog I would definately buy it. Interesting you bring that up, I have been looking into developing a better then basic yoke, throttle and rudder but not make it cost $1000, if I were to move forward you think there would be a market? I'd love to have force feedback on a yoke to make it that much closer to real life, imagine PMDG plus that! -Ryan Vince Quote from 911 magazine: "- ...RSR delivers unparallelled performance and stunning looks"
May 9, 201214 yr would be nice if Boening would update the throtle console to somthing like the airbus... percy clapp
