Take the best flight sticks in the world and make them better. That was the challenge facing the ThrustMaster team as they considered how to bring the F22 Pro and TQS into the new millennium.

Thanks for the article!

My current TM controls are probably from 1996 and have seen better days. My mouth is watering and I am looking forward to getting my hands on these babies!

My only regret is that they didn't include FFB too.

Oh, well.

I have a HOTAS Cougar on order and have order Simped Vario Pro pedals to go with them.

The Cougar should be here next week. I don't know about the pedals as they're coming from Germany and I'm in California.

I can't wait to get this setup.

Hmmm...

Worth a shot I suppose.

Karnak. The odds are semi-astonomical, but I had a bud that lived in San Rafael after
getting out of the Air Force. He never went by Karnak, but do the following weird
utterances mean anything to you?

Flash, Crow, or Ibag, Nobag, Zoom?

Very bizarre stuff to the non-initiates, but it is, again, worth a shot.

Let me know how that configuration goes.

I am using a TM RCS from 1994. I've changed the POTs and spring a few times, but I think it's time for a replacement.

What OS are you planning to use your equipment on?

I am currently on Win98SE. But I will order my gear after getting a new system. I am planning to give Windows XP Pro a shot.

Thanks in advance.

Spectre_USA,

Nope, not me. I was never in any of the services.

Sorry.

Thanks for replying Karnak.

Like I said, The odds are semi-astonomical, but it was worth a shot. It's so easy to
lose track of old war buds, and so tough to find them again. `Preciate it.
