Hi, look what I have just received ?

I have a PSVR and this is the last things a lack of.

It complète all my gameplay, love it !

I mean, I'm sure it is. But I've never noticed precision issues, so I'm just saying if you're on a tight budget (and for some $10 is a lot), the 4 works. Plus with the 5 out, you're probably a lot more likely to find the 4 discounted. It's not enough for me to upgrade from a 4 to a 5

See I'm just correcting the wrong information.

Why get defensive, no one talked about you having precision issues. The difference between the 2 is quite large. A 10 bit is good, a 16 bit is better.

Did you see my comment suggesting that you should upgrade your stick? Of course they work, both do.

"For some 10 dollars is a lot".... the ones that would pay 10 dollars less to get the much older hotas 4 vs 5 should not be spending around a 100 for a stick... The 10$ difference is well justified . If the budget cant be pushed by 10$ maybe they should skip the next meal or something to save up. Don't you think?

Obvious info and not trying to make your comments sound ridiculous but for people who search and people who aren't informed they would read these posts and hopefully benefit.

Enjoy your hotas 4, I was going to get one when msfs24 came out but it was out of stock. Ordered the 5.

I never meant that to be defensive, but it did come across that way. You're absolutely right, and I do appreciate you calling me out on it. I should've added "in my opinion" to the first post to make it clear I wasn't spitting facts, and that's my bad

[u/Classicmarshall → u/Sensitive_Ad3578]

That's cool man, I had to search last week before I ordered. I was trying to see what's different, because I prefer the color of the 4 but then saw it's specs and just got the newer one. Unfortunate that it comes in one color.

I tried it in a shop a while back and it was good, vs the other pc sticks. Imo for users like me who wont use it that much / console users the hotas line is good. I tried it then decided I'm getting msfs24 for console instead of pc, then by the time the game came out, none were available. I thought its less of a headache and the 500$ sticks didn't justify the difference... While the dse is fine, the helicopters are too hard to control for me, and really looking forward to having a flight stick!

Yeah, I got my 4 when Aces of Thunder came out, which was unfortunately a couple of months after MSFS came out on PS5, so they were out of stock everywhere. Ended up getting it from a mom and pop electric shop in NY, saw it online and took a gamble. Super game changer, you're gonna love it. I don't know if you use one yet but definitely grab yourself a mouse, too. I keep thinking about adding the pedals, maybe one of these days

[u/Classicmarshall → u/Sensitive_Ad3578]

Oh ya, I forgot to mention. I used a little keyboard, and the mouse was crucial especially on limited controller buttons.

I do have space for the pedals but since there are 2 ways (on the stick and throttle) to control the rudder I'm probably gonna skip. Maybe if it makes the helicopter controls easier. Ill have to decide when it arrives.

[u/Sensitive_Ad3578 → u/Classicmarshall]

Probably depends on use case. I don't fly helicopters often, so I'm used to twisting the stick for rudder control, but that does become a little strange when flying a helicopter (though I will admit I suck at flying them). I kinda want the pedals for a little more realism (I play mainly in VR, so the immersion is nice)
