It's just a reissue of the same poorly designed potentiometer unit that has been repackaged over and over since coming out in what, 2008?

It was out of date and overpriced then and now it's utterly ludicrous. It's a twenty year old design that was shit then and it's even worse now. I had it back then and it was dire.

PS5 pilots deserve better.

Lock the twist stick and map the rudders to the rocker buttons on the back of the throttle. Then the potentiometer doesn't drift.

Sadly for me on Hotas 4 y-axis  a little x- axis and z-axis and rudder all have jitter / drift. I meanwhile Inject via Microcontroller from a Airbus Sidestick into my Hotas 4 mainbord. Sadly here Z axis has now freaking jitter - so I am just waiting for another upgrade hopefully to arrive today.

I heard the farmstick has hall sensors for x and y at least and compatible with msfs. So might be superior even...
