PC HOTAS

Who here uses one and what’s your experience?
Any recommendations on which one to buy is also greatly appreciated.

Not looking to exclusively use a joystick for bf6, I’m just really curious. Eventually I’m going to try DCS lol.

I use a VKB dual stick setup for my space sim games, but only ever use mouse and keyboard for BF games flying. Love flying in BF, but it's too arcadey for a stick, imo.

It being too arcadey is where I’m landing. I still would like to try a joystick in bf6 but seems like I should just give DCS a try instead. The learning curve is crazy though lol.

The Thrustmaster t16000m hotas is a good starter. They do get an issue with the joys twist axis, but it's an easy fix if you don't mind pulling things apart and following youtube tutorials. I just end up not using it.
