CES 2010: Some serious flight sim stick action

If you’re serious about flight sim games, and I mean really freaking serious about flight simulation games, then you’ll likely dig this new Saitek Pro Flight X-65F system. The stick itself? It does not move. At all. Instead, it uses force sensing tech to gauge the pressure you put on it,  just like real aircraft controls. Push, pull, twist and it responds accordingly, except that it does not move from its position. This baby is solid metal and fully adjustable, as is the throttle, which is decked out with custom displays and gauges that can be switched with face buttons. Both pieces can be mounted to your desk, again, if you’re that hardcore.

Getting back to the being serious about flight sims part: When the X-65F launches in February, this baby will set you back about $400.
