Master Pilot
|
|
- Affordable add-on that you can use to program all your keyboard
commands and label them via a slip-in card.
- Some hobbyists are attaching backlighting to these units and
slipping in a transparent card to get a true HUD effect.

cartridges to programmable:

Top Gun
|
|
- Same grip and button layout as the FCS, works great with programmable throttles.
- I can not reccomend this joystick because even though it _looks_ like the FCS Pro, it
has a plastic construction on the inside. It broke in two within three weeks of heavy use.

F22 Pro
|
|
- Simply the ultimate flight controller
- Made by Thrustmaster, so incredible support.
- Hats and Switches are keyboard programmable.
- Known to have a problem with it's pots so you will likely have to open it up and spray
WD40 or replace the pots if you buy a new one.

Pro FCS
--DISCONTINUED-- |
|
- This one sat on my desk for six years until I finally wore the buttons out. Very
durable.
- Made by Thrustmaster.
- Programmable if you have a WCS II throttle
- Stiff springs. Good if you fly W.W.II sims and want the feel of really having to pull
outta those dives.

WCS II Throttle |
|
- This one sits on my desk. Very nice.
- The WCS II Throttle from Thrustmaster appears to no longer be produced.
- This is a throttle that can be programmed to generate key presses.

- This requires the F22 Pro or F16 FLCS joystick from Thrustmaster.

Elite RCS Rudder Pedals |
|
- The most realistic rudder pedals available.
- Made by Thrustmaster.
|
|
|
|
|
CH Pro Pedals |
|
- This one sits under my desk.
- Act as either rudder pedals or gas/brake
- Incredibly Durable
- Less Expensive than the RCS pedals
- The up/down car motion is a little distracting when you're pushing them forward and back
as rudders.
