Advice on new hardware

[76SQN-J0NJ0N]

Hi,

 

I've been playing RoF quite successfully for a while now with j/stick, pedals, keyboard and TIR, but flying these complicated monoplanes with fancy retractable landing gear, variable speed props and other mod cons I think that I need some kind of a 'box' for my left hand to operate. I would like something that gives me finer control of mix and prop pitch, a throttle and some switches to give me some more options. I'm a little broke after Xmas and New Year so something that won't break the bank would be ideal.

 

Any ideas?

CH Throttle Quadrant might do well in your case.

Not sure what budget is, you might find used as well.

Got this, the Saitek throttle Quadrant last week from best buy.  For 50 dollars you can't beat it.

Each to his own. I did have 2 Saitek throttles, 6 levers and a bunch of buttons. I thought I had it great for about three to four months. Then some spiking began. And some more, to the point where I could not use them anymore. I purchased a CH throttle Quadrant and never looked back. The quality is just a LOT better. All in my perception, so mileage may vary, but there's my 2 cents. I will not buy anything with Saitek on it.
