Joystick and throttle combo for simmers

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: Recommended for all simmers for its ergonomic design, program ability, smooth feeling, nice finish and competitive price
Review: Why did you buy this product?

I'm a flight sim fan. I played Falcon 3.0, Falcon 4.0 and now I just bought Falcon 4.0 Allied Force. If you don't know about this simulator, it is the most accurate and complex one of the F16 available to the...

Great for Advanced Flightsimmers

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: It's perfect for advanced flightsimmers but perhaps overkill for beginners. Well worth the price, but only if you can use the features it offers.
Review: The "I'm in a Hurry" Section:
This joystick is great for advanced flight simmers, which is not too surprising considering it is marketed as a "flight control system". There are more than enough controls that, when used along with the mode and...

Expensive but fun toy!

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Software stinks but the controls are very nice with more than enough features. Dont buy it for the LCD, its usless!
Review: I bought the x52 a week ago and I only have two problems, how much I payed for it, and the software.

Lets start with the throttle. It has a rather useless LCD display. This display is only functional if you set up a "profile" using the...

Evolution of the joystick

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great control setup for simulation fanatics.
Review: I owned the previous version, the one with the joysitck connector not USB, and I was very pleased with it. When I built my new computer I realized that I did not have a joystick port, everything is going USB. I sold the joystick and then regretted...

Flight simmers dream

Date of Review:  Jan 15, 2007
Review: Whats better than being able to use two hands to fly?
If you are really into flying, the X52 is a must. It is very well built and has far more buttons than could ever be used. Map all control surfaces, throttle, trim and use the built in mouse...

Review: I like the flight control system, however this is going to be the second time I am going to have to return it in less than a year.The connector on the joystick was faulty on the first one, now the joystick has internal failure which allows button 5...

A must-have if you own MS Flight Sim 2004

Date of Review:  Aug 15, 2006
Review: For years I always used my trusty Microsoft Sidewinder stick during flight simulations. However, it doesn't hold a candle to what the Saitek X52 offers anyone who enjoys being an armchair pilot. The throttle is nothing short of spectacular and you...

Great Stick for Flight Sim Enthusiasts

Date of Review:  Oct 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: I recommend this product to those that are avid flight simmers . Plenty of features and the ability to program the system to your liking.
Review: I am an avid flight simmer. Before I made the decision to purchase the X-52.

I had not used a Flight Control/Hands On Throttle And Stick (HOTAS) system before, but after reading numerous professional and user reviews, I decided to purchase...

Don't mind me, I've gone MIA!

Date of Review:  Jun 27, 2006
Review: I bought this joystick after careful deliberation. I bought an Electronic Arts game called Battlefield 2 and just could not get the jets to maneuver like some of the other pilots. I ended up in a Christian run server and asked one of the pilots how...

MechWarrior Madness - excellent joystick!

Date of Review:  Dec 8, 2005
The Bottom Line: Overall good product - would highly recommend if you're looking for the ultimate joystick.
Review: I'm an avid Mechwarrior fan and play on average, 5 hours a night. Have owned this controller since they first came out (like 6 months ago) and have been overall pleased. If you like to be able to configure button assignments and have a function for...
