The trigger is responsive and actually feels better than the X52's. If anyone has any tips or tricks to improve the comfort with this stick, please post. The T.16000M grip is a bit hard on the hands and the arms, and definitely takes some getting used to. It’s nowhere near as comfortable as the X52 was with its adjustable grip. įrom the things I had read, some people complained about the T.16000M grip/rest, and I have to agree.
#Saitek x52 pro vs non pro windows#
Just when I was beginning to think I should return to playing Windows Solitaire, the change in hardware showed me that I'm not as crappy a pilot as I thought I was. As an example, I had been practicing convoy runs using the X52 and had a difficult time, both in hitting my targets and with my maneuvers, but after switching sticks, I was more able to handle those maneuvers AND was able to destroy the convoys (although it still takes a bit of time). All in all, aircraft and gunnery control is accurate and far superior to what my X52 was ever able to produce. Twist rudder control is far more precise than it ever was on the X52. The Thrustmaster T.16000M is indeed a stiffer stick as people had mentioned, but I'm glad it is. A helluva lot of people seem to like it, so I gave it a try and am happy that I did so. The frustration associated with that was becoming unbearable, so I had enough.Īfter a lot of forum searches and reading, I decided to keep the X52 throttle, but replaced the stick with a budget-friendly Thrustmaster T.16000M. I just encountered too many occasions where I had to unplug and plug that cable in order to get it calibrated properly. The magnets helped for a while, but unfortunately, they could only help so much as it appears that the stick and/or the cable that attaches it to the throttle were deteriorating too much.

The stick eventually had axis drift problems, so I applied a magnet mod to it (see: ). I was using an X52 non-Pro version HOTAS for a long time. I recently "upgraded" from a Saitek X52 joystick to a Thrustmaster T.16000M.
