Crockett Posted June 20 Posted June 20 I've got all CH products (Joystick, Throttle & Pedals) that I've been using for years but I've had a lot of problems with them lately and they're now unusable. The CH Control Manager software isn't supported any more and I've about given up and I'm ready to upgrade. I'm looking for recommendations -- so what are all of you using for your Joystick, Throttle & Pedals that you're happy with and aren't outdated and are still supported?
marcost Posted June 21 Posted June 21 Crosswind rudder pedals Warthog joystick on Virpil Warbrd base Virpil CM3 throttle Been very happy with the above. Plenty of customisation available on these, both hardware for feel (springs, cams etc) and software for functionality. Newer versions of some of the above are available, I think.
Hoss Posted June 21 Posted June 21 (edited) I've got a TM Warthog throttle and Stick and Crosswinds I'll sell ya. Only if you live it the states.... The BlackHog stays with me.... I even have the MTSIM table mounts for it. I don't use this office pit set up any longer, I moved to a SimFab simpit. the TM Throttle has the Deltasim slew button upgrade too... And I have a 10cm curved extension for the Stick and the long MTSIM table mount down arm for the longer extension. Edited June 21 by Hoss

spreckair Posted June 22 Posted June 22 VKB NXT EVO flight stick, VKB STECS throttle, MFG Crosswind pedals. I have been using these together for quite some time and I am very happy with them. Not ultra top of the line, but best bang for the buck and very good quality and performance.
Mike2945 Posted June 23 Posted June 23 I'm a huge fan of the VKB range, having previously used a couple of the cheaper joysticks. My current rig: VKB Gladiator Next Evo VKB Side Extension Module - provides flaps, undercarriage and a host of additional controls VKB Throttle Quadrant plus WW2 grip add on (provides a really immersive 'throttle experience) and yet more buttons. It means I don't need to use the keyboard at all when flying - although you'll have fun programming some of the functions and LEDs with their software (all explained on their YouTube videos which you might want to look at before you decide). My rudder is Thrustmaster bought cheap on Ebay - perfectly adequate for coarse rudder control/braking
Hoss Posted July 10 Posted July 10 TM just released new cams, clutch dampers, and extensions. I've been waiting for the clutch dampers, glad to see they kept their word on getting them out to the public. I bought the FBW cams and the dampers.
