Also, this may seem as a too niche thing but actually I really can’t afford a 300 dollar flight stick right now, I’m not even that good at the game yet to warrant it, but also it’s very tricky, even if I would get it later, not a lot of flightsticks come with double throttles, and this FLY5 is I think is quite rare on the affordable range with double throttles and the button amount, it was bought quite a long time aog, but I even repaired it, cleaned out the sensors so it’s good for quite some more time. There’s really no replacement that I know of, other than a 350$ or more one with double throttles.
Similarly for the mouse, I’m also doing a lot of desktop work and the horizontal secondary scroll wheel has become a big deal for me and a game changer, I can’t just replace the mouse so easily to get off the MadCatz drivers if it’s their fault.
So this fix might be worth it.
