i need a feedback from you.

- is it worth the price?
- is it true that you have to buy a lot of modification parts, so that this thing works like it should?


thanks for your "help" :thumbsup:

It's worth it if you're a serious simmer, I use it for both combat and civi sims, works freakin great with a yoke and joystick, when it comes to customization it's a must (i mean would u leave the default buttons on a joystick as well? I think not), but to each his own. I personally would recommend it. As for modification, no not really, although implementation is a completely diff story. You can use it as a stand alone so dont worry, you dont have to "modify" anything by buying parts.

As for worth the price, I bought it for 100 canadian, so to me it was def. worth it, not sure how much your buying it for but I can tell you onething, once u get thruster throttle(s) you wont be going be back, makes like so much more easier.

Yeah, I agree, the Thrustmaster (Yes, When I first heard it, I thought it was some porno, Hilarious in a Dirty Way) is a good joy stick although I wouldn't really get it for that price, I'd rather get a cheaper game joy stick as it doesn't really feel different to me...

:D porno? LOL :D yeah, if you're not a serious flight simmer, something cheaper is also good (btw, i play flight sims a lot).
it's just that from the day i saw it... i just need to have it :) ... and the only thing that's keeping me away is... price :cry: (for now :devil: )
