Bwaze Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Wont you be too busy burning sheep/tyres/aristocrats to be playing with HOTAS? :smartass: Nah, I'm from Slovenia. We never have demonstrations. Unless you're a student, this is waht they did with our parliament after a short and small "get together" in front of it: Also, we never have computer equipment on stock or is very overpriced, so everybody orders from abroad. Sellers here try to stop that, usually your warranty is not acknowledged even if it is "worldwide", if the item is not bought in Slovenia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashEd Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) You may well joke about new pants. I may need some. Just received an email form Flightstore saying it has been shipped. I almost pooped myself. I thought this thread was a wind up tbh. .... off to buy new pants :helpsmilie: Coolts> you need to send one of your super emails to Amazon telling them to get their fingers out.

jocko417 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 "you weren’t there so we may try and deliver again. If we can be arsed, and haven’t all gone out for a fag" cards. LOL, I hate those cards... "Even though you're home now, you weren't here an hour ago when we stopped by so now you'll have to wait at least 24 hours before you can pick it up from us"...

Lio Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I just bought mine from simware. Its a bit expensive. Eneded up in a total of 440€ EUR with shipping. But oh well. Both DCS BS and A10C will be much much better with a really good HOTAS. Right now im playing them with a 8 button joytstick with a small throttle wheel on it. It was "ok" sort of in BS because i could engange from a hover etc. But in A10C i have to do so much with the keybord it just gets impossible since i have to remove my hands from the joystick. I will finaly be able to play the BS campagin :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCSimulations.com 499USD + 25USD shipping to Canada = about 536CAD. Ten years ago I bought a Cougar for 250USD and the exchange rate was such that it cost me almost 500CAD with shipping and duty and taxes. Back then a Canadian dollar was worth about 66 cents US, now it's worth about 98. An extra 40 bucks this time gets me twice the controller the Cougar was. ;) I'll let you know what Canada Customs says... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky49 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Jocko417: Just bought a TIR 5 last week and bought a X52pro and pro pedals last year so hard to justify a new controller although because I am a big fan of the A10 would probably get goood use out of one...I am a little tired of Saitek programming problems and lack of real good support.

jocko417 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 After ten years it's time to put the cat out ;) This little piggy will get a good home. I've never owned a Saitek stick, only CH and TM so I can't compare. I did look hard at the Pro pedals but ended up going with the Simpeds to plug into my Cougar. Now I'll have to keep the Cougar around to use the Simpeds! Couldn't live without my TIR 5! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
