ABSOLUTELY! I Use VOICE COMMANDS but I Still Have EVERYTHING I NEED on BUTTONS.

Don't Forget there's a SLIDER TOO. Perfect for "INERTIAL FORWARD and BACK".

You can Bind the Slider to a Few Things but INERTIAL THRUST works Best for Me. So, that's TWO BUTTONS you won't need to program. lol.

I have the x52 vanilla, great stick, but the software support is atrocious; just for that I want something else.

I too fully endorse the CH products as Flash and Cronic stated already, I put them through countless abuse in pvp especially the pedals lol, and never had any issues. :):P

Yes the support is lousy, but once you have the software working and you understand how to use it, it is a piece of cake to program it and use it!.....;):cool:

Just info: finally I got Thrustmaster Warthog. It works very well in Evochron Mercenary. Joystick/throttle support in EM is exceptional. Didn't found any other space sim with such perfect game controllers config options. Vice is the best!

Ive been using the hotas x for this game and crimson skies. Havent really had any problem other than the odd time i knocked the dead centering out. All in all, make sure you have a throttle bar somewhere on it. I know logitech made a dect on and it was just a flip bar for throttles.

I am partial to the Logitech G940 Flight System (joystick, throttle, pedals) myself.

After Logitech ironed out the bugs in design ans software, its a very reliable system. They only thing they have yet to really implement is the LED control for the split throttle (shame on you Logitech, its been over 3 years!)

Its not as robust and precise as some of the older HOTAS such as Thrustmaster Warthog, but its also not as expensive either.

Take care of your system, and it takes care of you.
