H.O.T.A.S. and pedal set up. Planning for now.

Anyone who's annoyed by me by now knows, I just like asking questions.

This time, I'm wanting opinions on H.O.T.A.S. And pedal/rudder setups.

The games I play/will play that can make use of these setups would be MechWarrior Online, Star Citizen, Elite: Dangerous... Basically mech and spaceship games. I'd like a solid, useable bit of gear that would last.

Quality would be supreme over other factors.

I was looking at thrustmaster's Warthog, but I didn't see any good pedal/rudder designs on their site. Is the warthog worth it? Or would I find equal quality and use at half the price elsewhere?

What is a good pedal rudder system that would allow me to control turning?

Any and all opinions are welcome on this. Seriously, all of them.

Unapologetic AMD fangirl. Yes, I'm biased. Yes, I know sometimes nVidia and/or Intel is an equal or better option. Yes, I try to keep it in check.

I still like AMD more.

Saitek is your lord and savior. Their products are solid and relatively inexpensive. Just look through their site and compare things that fit whatever you want to spend.

Just my 5 cents in this discussion:

Saitek X52 Pro seems to develop a small issue where throttle doesn't actually go to zero despite the thing being all the way down. Nothing that can't be fixed with little calibration though.

 

If you have any questions about X52 Pro or Elite: Dangerous, feel free to ask.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

Isn't Saitek made by MadCatz? I still have a bad taste in my mouth about them since before EB Games and Babbage's were bought and merged...

Is Saitek solid?
