Product Reviews

www.gamingheadlines.co.uk Gold Award 10/10

Gols AwardThe most obvious, eye catching and astounding feature of the throttle component is the two inch square LCD panel in the bottom right corner of the base, following with the blue LED theme the panel lights up in a delicious cold blue almost begging you to turn out the lights and stand in awe of the X-52 (having previously applied duck tape to avoid bending down and picking up ones jaw). The panel displays the current mode that the X-52 is in as well as the time, date and the current profile you are using. A clutch button is included on the throttle, which allows you to switch profile on the fly and also view the function of any button you press.

Maxim Magazine June 2005

...a virtual trip to the danger zone is now only a push of a button away with Saiteks X52 Flight Control System for PC gaming. The 360-degree joystick, with it's two-stage metal trigger, four fire buttons, pinkie swtich, and 3-D rudder twist, let you show your stuff above the hard deck.

www.futurelooks.com Editors Choice 9.62/10

The X52 joystick system is as good as everyone claims it to be. The big thing with me is that I have not heard much about the things it cannot do. So, those of you thinking about buying this joystick system, go ahead. It has a really great feel when using it, but keep in mind this system may not be usable on all games, especially older games. The great thing is that you will be part of a community of gamers that are willing to help each other out. After doing my third Saitek review, I can only see great things from this company. Try this joystick system and decide for yourself. I think you will like it a lot."

Bristling with functionality, both the joystick and throttle units are covered in sliders, wheels, POV hats and buttons, all placed with the delicate care for comfort and customisation that PC gamers have come to depend on from Saitek products. What results is a supremely capable control system that can be moulded to the user's own preferences like no other device on the market, offering support for all PC flight simulation titles thanks to its superb programming utilities.

What will ultimately convince you that this is the future is when you lay your hands on the two controls and see how snugly they fit your hands and how smoothly they operate in-game. At such a reasonable price, it's hard to see how much they could be bettered.

A flight control system for those who want to immerse themselves into a flight simulator, the X52 offers many functions that some joysticks can only dream of .
