Title: How many people have flight sticks?
Post by: Visitor Q on December 11, 2008, 01:46:52 pm

How many people have flight sticks installed on their control panel?

I am getting 2 U360s but also want a physical restricted 4 ways but I was wondering if a flight stick would have been a better option? I must speak now or forever hold me peace...

My thought is that I would use a restricted 4 way much more than a flight stick even though I will have U360s, I was figuring on there is nothing as good as a true 4 way.

Crazy?

It's possible to make one of your U360's a true restricted stick by using one of Oscar's 4-way restrictors that mount to the top of your control panel. They don't make them any longer but I noticed one is for sale over in Buy/Sell/Trade.

Player 1 and 2 are going to be U360s; up top is going to be the restricted 4 way.

Ya know even if I would do a flight stick the spinner would be so close to the stick, the lay out would be too cramped for games like Tron.

I better stick to my original plan... Sorry, I get these crazy ideas!

Sorry guys, I have a hard time making decisions. :banghead:
