Gentlemen,
I'm in the market for a new HOTAS fight control system. I currently use Thrusmaster Cougar and it works just fine, but I want one with dual throttles. I've been looking at the Saitek X56 & the Thrustmaster Warthog. Both are very good but I'm not sure as to which one to get. If any of you guys out there own one of these please hit me back with your feedback. Before my wife kicks my butt for buying both of them.

Warthog. Hands down.... especially for the throttle. The X65F is silly. If you can handle the price of the Warthog, do it. It's had some small teething issues with production quality control, but the overall design, materials, and realism are top notch.

I had a chance to try one out. I almost stole it.

Thanks Beaker.
