If anyone else is using this HOTAS, here's a mod that I'm extremely pleased with myself for:

I tell you, it works wonders. It makes a good HOTAS great.

Just saying.... :)

I like the keyboard and mousepad as well, with the Hotas either side. May have to copy.

Feel free. I'm very pleased with the setup. And it's more stable on your lap than you might initially think. And easy to put away when not in use.

Hey G.D.

You inspired me to do something similar on the equally annoyingly conical Hat on my X-52 Pro - but because mine has an LED in the middle, and I don't have any old useless knobs (well, not that would be any use for this, anyway ;) ) I used the cut-down cap from an Optrex Eye Mist sprayer & a spiral of good old Blu-Tack.

BIG improvement :D

I'll take a snap or two in daylight (of the X-52, ya pervs!) 'coz I haven't drilled the LED-hole yet.
