I have a yoke and rudder pedals but need to put them away in between flights. So i am looking for a flightstick for when i just need a quick flight and have no time to set up other controls. I was reading about cyborg fly5 do any of you own this? Whats your experience with it. I had saitek x45 a fews years back but wantone tbat has stick and throttle in one control also with twist for rudder control. I dont really want to spend more than £100. Also do you think i should wait until cosford next month as there may be deals there.

Hi, Wain. I use a Fly 5 stick, works ok for me, only problem I had with previous one was when a Granddaughter spilt a cup of coffee on it, I have thought about having a yoke and throttles but not to keen on the space they might take up. the fly 5 does have 2 throttles.
Harry.

cheers Harry, I am short on space too and sometimes I just want to plug in and fly, can be a pain to reconnect rudder etc and then find I sometimes have to set them up again....saw the Fly 5 in PC Pilot had a good review.

I picked up a T-Flight Hotas off EBay for about 20 quid just for when I fancy a quick blast...Just the one usb plug and does what I need it to...
