I use a Thrustmaster Cougar. I put in F22pro springs to give it a softer feel. With all the programming options, I never touch the keyboard. I also have the afterburner set to the throttle, so I get 0-100%-afterburner with one motion, don't have to hold a button in :) giuff...@softhome.net (Hawk) wrote in news:3e3b6c...@news.tin.it: > Which is the best joystick which works with WCP (and possibly also > with WCIV) under WinXP? > Thanks a lot

Separate thruster control rulez! ;) No, really, I could not imagine anymore to settle for that small sliders that most sticks have versus a real throttle. -- Duct tape is like the force, it has a light side and a dark side and it holds the universe together.
