Joy stick or wheel?
When I bought FS2004 I got a deal (?) which included a wingman joystick for
about $12. This also had a rebate of $12 which made it essentially free. I am beginning to think that it is worth what I paid for it. It doesn't react well, the throttle setting will not advance far enough on the 172 to give full take off power, etc. I have tried to find the calibration page to no avail. The help file doesn't even recognize the word calibrate. It looks to me like an obsolete model. It has an adapter from a game port connector to USB. OK what should I get a stick or a wheel? I learned to fly with a stick, but most of my time is with a wheel. I really just want to play with the J 3, the 172, 182 etc. I might fool around a little with the heavier stuff, but no big deal. What should I buy, and which brands etc seem to work best? I am willing to spend $100 or so. Wally 1st solo, 1936 in a Curtiss Robin |
