Anyone want a Saitek X45 Hotas?

I have one sitting on my floor that does nothing. The plastic is a bit sticky but it should still work.
I'll be throwing it out, but thought I'd ask in case someone could use it before I do.

Cheers
Darren

Ummm, when I said "it does nothing" I meant that I don't use it, not that it literally does nothing, for if it did nothing it would be the worst give-away ever.

Hi Bruce,

I'm in Brisbane mate.

I can send it somewhere, but you'd have to weigh up whether it's worth the postage.

Cheers

I bought one of these together with my G27 a few years ago.  They are a good stick and throttle if anyone is looking to get into flight sims.

Although having said that, I don't have the desk space to keep it on my desk so mine sits in the cupboard as well, probably because my sim racing career took precedence over my 5 minute flight sim career!

I bought it for IL2 I think. I don't know why I stopped using it, but it wasn't because of my sim racing career. LOL I'm terrible.
I'll keep it for a while to see if anyone is interested.

Thanks doobs, if you were around the corner, I may well 'try it out', but I too do little flying sim stuff and it would be wasted... especially as I  believe my sim racing careers is about to take off! :)
