I have not touched on yokes, alternative control methods (like controllers), collectives, or head tracking.

I've also focused, strictly, on HOTAS gear here (stick, throttle, pedals). This is also a very high level overview, so please keep that in mind. If you have more accurate information than what I’ve posted here, please reply and I’ll happily update what I’ve written. I do have experience with some of this gear, but a lot of it is information I’ve collected over the last 8 years or so of trolling various posts and places on the internet. Just a guy who enjoys flying WWI, WW2, modern, and space games that started with Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe with a Gravis Phoenix when he was a kid. I’m not a hard core flight simmer (though I used to be an IRL pilot). I’ve tried to be somewhat objective in here, but overall, this post represents my opinion. I thought the current “considering your first HOTAS guide” was lacking, so I decided to update a post I made over 6 years ago (mods add this to sticky? :D) Where Saitek went wrong with the X-55 Rhino by /u/Goloith HOTAS mount with PVC pipes by /u/irrelevant_queryĪnother HOTAS mount with PVC pipes by /u/vsTerminus
