I forgot to specify that I use the TM Warthog for jets (as voted), but I also have a Pro Flight Trainer Puma for helicopter flying.

I think there may be a slight bias in this poll, I think a lot of the more hardcore DCS fans frequent the ED forums and would vote in the poll, these more hardcore fans would also be more likely to have the higher end peripherals, thus the extreme number of players who say Thrustmaster warthog over cheaper alternatives.

 

My educated guess is that the Saitek (now Logitech) X52 and X55/56 along with the thrustmaster T16000M are going to be some of the most used HOTAS systems for DCS. I personally use the X56 for DCS.

Slight OT / just FYI:

 

I ignore / immediately delete whatever default HOTAS settings module has and bind my own.

And I would really pissed if I had to redo them all because of changes to default, which I fear is a real possibility, given how it is implemented.

 

Oh and some possibility to rearange order of device columns that someone mentioned earlier would be most welcome.
