Logitech Flight System G940 Force Feedback Flight Sim Controller New G-Series Controller

If you happen to be into flight sims as I once was you'll know that
there's no substitute in terms of emersion factor that a quality flight
sim controller and, to that end, Logitech hope to secure a wad of your
hard earned cash with their newly announced Flight System G940 Force
Feedback Flight Sim Controller.

The Logitech Flight System G940, apart from coming with force feedback,
consists of joystick, rudder pedals and throttle stick which, according
to Logitech's press release, apart from being the company's first force
feedback flight simulation controller has been inspired by military and
commercial planes and helicopters (though, ultimately, it's pulling
inspiration very much from FBW control systems such as those utilised by
modern aircraft as opposed to those with yokes - B747 et al).

Designed specifically with reference to Microsoft Flight Simulator X,
IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946 and Lock On: Modern Air Combat as well as X-Plane
9, the Logitech Flight System G940 sports a two-stage metal trigger, six
programmable buttons, mini-stick, 8-way hat and three analog trim
controls as well as programmable dual throttle, (for use with
multi-engined aircraft), eight programmable base-buttons, two additional
eight-way hat switches, four programmable grip buttons and two rotary
analog-controls - which ought to see you fairly well catered for
regardless of whether you're sim-flying an F18 or an A380.

The Logitech Flight System G940 Force Feedback Flight Sim Controller is
primed for final approach into Europe and the US from September and will
set you back around $300 and 280GBP respectively.
