logic3 flight control system
I have just got hold of one of these, I'm quite happy with it
It was the right price (free - I paid £28 from ebay... when it arrived it didn't work. I asked for a replacement, but none available, so was given full refund. The seller didn't want it back, so it became a project for me to fix
)
It does feel cheap, but since digging around inside it, I'm confident it will last a while.
The throttle unit is too light, and the action a bit too stiff, so has a tendency to slide around. The tension adjuster is useless. I will be operating on this to fix.
The joystick is comfortable and has a twist rudder control. It has suckers for feet which seem to work ok.
The buttons, dials and controls don't give a nice positive feel, but all work perfectly, I don't think they will give me any problems. The trigger and pinkie buttons are micro-switches that are a bit too light, but again should last.
The driver is very simple, but does offer the option to remap the controls. It can set macros up too (apparently, I havn't tried to yet)
There are plenty of controls, 2 POV hats (one on the joystick, one on the throttle) 3 trim controls, and lots of buttons, all nicely placed.
It has vibration feedback, which works better than I was expecting.. and it looks good too
I have good hopes for this joystick & throttle, and because of a generous ebay seller, with a little bit of tweaking I should end up with a bit of a belter of a controller
