Sadly selling my Brand New Saitek X-56 Hotas (Hands On Throttle And Stick)

Only a couple of hours use out of the box.

Since baby #4 I haven't had time to use this brand new stick and throttle.

The X-56 features unique, purpose-built mini analog sticks at the thumbs providing four more axes of control plus double as buttons. Also features twist rudder control.

Is absolutely brilliant for flight simulators and Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen etc.

I also purchased a Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, yet just kept coming back to the Saitek X56 to play.

Upgrade from the Saitek Rhino X-55 HOTAS.

New price $469.
