Hi CMDR's and thank you for the kind welcome.
I am using a Thrustmaster T-Flight HOTAS X. Not the best there is but i didn't want to go all in to start (and "she who must be obeyed" may have gone a bit mental if i had spent what I REALLY wanted to spend on a stick...)

Plus i'm saving for a new GCard and my eyes are firmly set on a VR setup down the road. Gotta grind those domestic creds first though, don't you know.

But the Thrustmaster is awesome. Can't imagine playing without one.
I'll definitely look into those links and thank you CMDR JohnLuke, that's very kind of you to point them out. Once I'm done building some creds (enough to get me either the Conda - if i have the patience - or at least a FDL), i'll come to Azrael (cool system name for a home system btw - I had a DDO character with a name based on that archangel; a necromancer, of course).

Nice to meet you and best of luck fine tuning those combat skills CMDR Morgan Bateson.

Looking forward to getting involved and thx again for the welcome.
