Features that have been great or not on any control, lets share

Biometrics:

Lests face it, we don't like to remove hands from devices to turn a swicht....

The more reachable and NATURAL to use the better, some times you have hats or buttos that fell so unnatural that you don't even configure.
Nedd to stretch your finger and do the kenedy bullet dance to reach it.


The x52 regulation for your hand, it was very handy and was replaced in the x-65 and abandoned in the x55

The x-65 use plastic add on to elevate your hand but was crap

I think that add ons like the pistol grips options in handguns could be used and even used on the stick to increase its diameter.

I hate the lack of proper support for the arm on all flight devices, car games have lot better atachments on their devices. we have 4 holes to screw if we are lucky.

Logitech 3d, very small but it just work always.

Controls:

x55 mode switch on the throtle? it was much beter place on the x52.

the mouse on the x52 ttrotle, and the slide, very easy to use.

The front controls on the x65 throttle handle, now deduced to crap in x55.

Love the Panels in front of the x-65 throttle, I Really get surprised on how natural I fell using them.

8 Way Hats: HATE THEM, you can use more than 4 way hat whit precitions? and way so big? and close to each other.. ..



Today I can say

The best throttle experience (how it fell and control positions) the x-65

best joy experience, x52

Best usability, Logitech 3d (it works, dont have many controls so you can complain where are the missing ones)


Games

Form arcade games use Logitech 3d, or similar.

Best gaming keyboard: Microsoft ergonomick :) years of service.... and now a decent gamer keyboard wont last 6 months. I miss the MS keyboard.


Cam on share your hate and like

^ This :)

More to that. Very soon we will get Oculus Rift and Steam VR. And wit those we will be unable to see our joysticks/throttles at all most of the time. So having more buttons/switches on grip, which anyone can easily reach 'blindly' is very important IMO.

The best throttle experience I had with a CHP Throttle.
Yes it is old and ugly and plastic but it has something the most other throttles don't have or when they have it, it is just bad. A analog Stick.
When you play SpaceSim like i do a throttle without a analog stick is just useless :)
