Joystick with throttle and control for flight simulator

Overview
Highly accurate flight combat simulation

Saitek 's H.O.T.A.S. (3M) X52 Pro Flight system is a fully integrated handheld stick and joystick flight controller that meets or exceeds the demands of even the most seasoned flight simulator pilots. Featuring an upgraded multi-function LCD display showing real-time data during gameplay, it also includes a progressive throttle control with a tension adjustment system, as well as an adjustable joystick with an auto-centering mechanism.

The X52 Pro system takes all the great features of the original X52 system and elevates them to a new level.


Advanced adjustment system
A five-position grip adjustment system adapts to your playing style and hand size. And for optimum comfort during long flights, the joystick handle is also contoured to fit your fingers. The joystick's rotary rudder controls add another dimension to simulated flight control. If you prefer more traditional controls, a rudder lock button disables the rotary capabilities and limits control to the X and X axes, ideal for use with Saitek Pro Flight rudder pedals (sold separately).

A precision centring mechanism ensures that the joystick easily returns to its central position when released. Non-contact technology on the X and Y axes enhances control while increasing durability. This means that the joystick becomes resilient when it moves away from its central position.


Multifunction LCD Screen
The X52 Pro's LCD screen, withadjustable backlighting, lets you see your button settings at a glance. Even better, you'll appreciate the ability to directly manipulate the radio pack information in FSX, X-Plane, Prepar3D, and most flight simulation software. You can then use the buttons below the multi-function display to navigate the essential functions of the radio pack. A downloadable software development kit allows you to create your own interactions with the multifunction display.

Progressive throttle functionality improves the unit's response. Lever notches, marks indicating the origin of a specific action, simplify control of the aircraft's idle and reverse thrust. Another customisable feature on the X52 Pro system is a tension control knob that allows you to change the throttle resistance to suit your flying sensations.


Features :
  • Interactive multi-function display showing important information during play
  • Exclusive dual spring mechanism provides a progressive return force as a result of stick movement (the further away from the centre, the stronger it becomes)
  • Magnetic Hall effect sensor and non-contact technology
  • Progressive throttle control with tension adjustment, plus levers for afterburner and idle
  • Compatible with: FSX - Flight Simulator X (PC only), X-Plane 10 (PC and Mac), Prepar3D 2.2 (PC only), X-Wing - Special Edition, TIE Fighter - Special Edition, Elite: Dangerous, Star Citizen, virtually all other flight simulation software

    Disappointing!

    I am writing this review after 6 months of use and following a major breakdown.
    I would say that the joystick is fine in the main lines and for the Sunday flyers once a month.
    I explain myself, the joystick is rather well finished but very quickly gets a play on the central axis making the small adjustment in linear flight boring to the possible, and this translating into a loss of precision in dogfighting domagable!
    But the worst for me was the throttle... A useless screen and even if comfortable under the hand it is all that remains. The button 7 failed in 2 weeks and the throttle failed after 6 months .... (The other big problem is the dependence of the throttle!
    It is impossible to use the joystick alone if you already have a throttle of another brand because it is directly connected to it.
    I would like to note that the first 2 weeks were still nice but that this product is not worth it anymore because it is too fragile (badly designed) and not precise enough for this price range

    Button out of order

    Received at depot when I paid for home delivery.
    One button (E) is already out of order. Given the price of the Hotas, I expected a better quality product.

    Very important resistance point when tilting the handle in any axis,

    Impassable, because when the hard point is released the handle goes away at once, so no progressiveness !!!!! I'm returning the product.

    Very good product

    Used on Prepar3D, it is the reference HOTAS for my needs. The quality is really better than cheaper products, you can feel it right away. The finish is excellent and nothing looks or feels cheap.
    I recommend it, even if this product won't get the highest rating: the installation can be a bit long if the site doesn't recognize your system. Then you have to look through a not very clear list to find out what downloads are necessary and optional.
    The X52 can be conquered with a little patience, but nothing insurmountable.
    Finally, a word of thanks to Teddy from the hotline, who was able to put things into perspective with professionalism and hindsight, in a period of various restrictions where air parcels are delayed.
