Review on Logitech X52 Flight Control System for Enhanced Optimization by Bima ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

I have long wanted to acquire, so he read a lot about HOTAS. I hope my review will be useful to someone) Conclusion - if you are NOT! an avid fan who is ready to pay hundreds of dollars for each control unit, then it is worth buying this model. You won't guess right. It is worth considering that the main use (95% of the time) I had on games of the X series and tested a little on E. D. That is, space, not air. Design, as it were, hints;) Now let's take a closer look. * Wires 1.5 meters. The main USB comes from the RUD, so if you have a PC on the right and a big enough desk - say hello to the USB extension. RUS is connected to the ore with a separate wire, there are no problems here. * The native driver behaves strangely, and on Win10, the backlight constantly resets when the PC is turned on and off. Personally, this did not bother me and I did not look for a solution. * Understanding the system at the level - stuck and ready. No dancing with tambourines. But since without this it’s not interesting - on the manufacturer’s website you can say the programmer for this device. And I highly recommend doing so. This software will allow you to reassign almost all elements and use numerous modes. For spaceships, where the number of function buttons is simply huge - this is really very convenient! (Only to set it all up for yourself, it will take not a single hour at the beginning :) ) I generally made macros for work - gorgeous) *RUS - too soft centering spring (you can tilt it with your little finger to the stop with a slight effort). No other springs are included. Shift-trigger (under the little finger) has a height adjustment along with the platform. The main trigger is 2x mode (light pressing and all the way). Rocket launch is not very convenient - you can hit the POD. * RUD - no complaints at all. Stiffness adjustment, at the extreme 20% of the stroke "hill" of the stroke. Unless the ministick for cursor control is inconvenient and inaccurate, I almost don’t touch it at all. The whole thing is very light, but stable. There are optional suction cups and the ability to screw to the table/bracket. There is a backlash in the "krutilok", but a small one. In general, 5% of the dead zone solves all the noise.

Pros
  • Value for money, quality and functionality Its simple and understandable "programmer" of modes
Cons
  • RUS spring too soft "Forgetting" the backlight brightness mode after turning the PC on and off

Has pros: I am satisfied with the joystick, very pleasant to use. Got cons: The throttle lever has a lot of backlash in the x-plane 11 simulator, which causes a lot of inconvenience.
