Its been good to me and lots of fun. I'm angry but it will soon turn to a little sadness. My Saitek X-52 just literally failed. I was taking off on Small Airstrip, banked up and hard-left, bombed the little village flag and re-armed. It was my first run, after we secured the flag. So I'm fully armed and I bank right to go defend MEC Airfield, with a General in the gunners seat... and then it happened... My rudder on the stick felt horribly un natural... and broke off of the spindle.

And we flew in to space, it was the shortest and longest flight Ive ever had...
Here comes a tear...
Have a care \_/ ???

I hope Saitek will work with me on replacing this... I know I wont be flying anytime soon.

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

Wow that sucks, do you discourage future buyers? Or did it last fairly long?

Good luck replacing it.

EDIT: At first, I looked at the title and thought you broke your X52 because you were "pissed off"

No I really woudnt. It took a week or so getting used too. But it is a great product. I will get it replaced, no doubt.

Previously, I had a Logitech 3D Pro, that was good, but didnt last 6 months and then failed with the perm left turn.

I believe that, especially for Helo flights. I would say Im a 4 out of 5, but thats with a working X-52
Im know how to fly, just need to learn it, so I'm going to try all keys though. Mouse coordination is obviously a skill I had as when I was younger; no longer.
