Would the CH Fighterstick and pro throttle be a good upgrade over the saitek x52?

I would still have my CH if it was built like the cougar or warthog. Although the plastic is strong, I didn’t like the tactical feel of the buttons. I loved CH manager, it’s the best programming software I believe. I love the feel of my cougar and warthog, not a big fan of TARGET so far. I really hate that I couldn’t get the CH guts into a cougar or warthog.
I love the clickyness and immediate feel of the CH buttons.
The Cougar trigger felt like Sponge Bob.Rotaries are the best part of the Cougar.
The speed brake was a cow to use.
Hats were very nice though.
The pinky and levers were good.The trigger though I didn’t like at all.
The CH has buttons that give a nice click when pressed.
The Thrusty t16000m is a great stick but the buttons are very poor.

Speedbrake is pretty easy to fix, you open up the throttle and rotate the speedbrake switch to line up with the outside guide for it a bit better… makes a world of difference.

My hat 3 is broken and the rotairies have bitten the dust so my Cougar is a Cougar now.
Old thing looking flash but not getting any.

Also have CH gear for more than 10 years now… never let me down…
The problem with “lost” programming is easily fixed by adding a profile activator EXE to the Windows startup folder.
It will change from DX mode to mapped automatically so you don’t need to open the programming software and do it manually every time you start your PC.
All in all, great value for the money.
I use it for BMS and DCS (A10, mustang, dora, sabre, F15).
If you don’t wanna spend the cash on a new WH, go for this CH without even blinking -

Fortunately the Cougar is a lot easier to get back in action. Most of the other kind of Cougars dont have a technical support department.

I have used the Warthog all I can say is that it’s amazing, I have to see how it holds up over time.
Same here. I got a Warthog a few month ago, pretty amazing. Software is not very user-friendly, but quite powerful.
