Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas Controller January 7, 2009
The Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas is superb. The problem that many of us are having with Windows XP is the loss of the MS programmable software. It doesn't work in xp. We can't save game profiles for quick recall. That just stinks. Shame on you Microsoft! MANY OF OUR OLD WIN98 GAMES WON'T RUN, AND THOSE THAT DO HAVE NO WAY TO SET UP THE CONTROLLER FOR THEM. If your flight sim does not have an ingame programming feature, you're sunk. Many of our old analogue controls don't work well if at all in XP. Microsoft seems to have dropped the flight sim gamers. BUT FLIGHT SIM COMBAT GAMES ROCK! AND I'M 60 YEARS OLD, BEEN PLAYING THEM FOR YEARS. Two great old companies remain to rescue us. Thrustmaster and CH. Their equipment is great, Expensive, but great. Their programming features keep them alive for new and older games. Applause! My quest for a programmable usb joystick and throttle combination for XP led me to the super affordable T-Flight Hotas USB Controller. AT $45 verses $200 plus for the COUGAR OR THE CH hotas setups, it is a steal. It is solid, heavy, and it configures automatically in XP with no drivers needed. It calibrates and programs easily and it feels great in gameplay. It even has the twist rudder I got used to with the old MS Precision Pro. Did I say it has an adjustable resistence to the joystick that you can set to your preference? Excellent detail! The detachable feature provides separation for the Throttle and Joystick - but we like it joined together just fine. We have owned the MS Precision Pro, Force feedback, Ch flightstick and pedals, Suncom Talon 15e, and some others out there as well and have played most of the flight sims out there. The T-Flight Hotas is the best buy for XP gamers. I can't speak to Vista, other than I hate it. But for XP Pro this is THE CONTROLLER TO OWN FOR GAMING! 5 STARS THRUSTMASTER! The throttle of the T-flight makes flying sims more fun than a slider on the base of a joystick. The 12 programmable buttons are awesome, well placed, and relieve a lot of keyboard concern. At this price I can add USB rudder pedals and have the whole enchilada for less than the price of a fighterstick and hotas.
