thinking about donating

Yeah I have a MISC Freelancer package, since the freelancer isn't available yet though I have been using the F7A Hornet. Really fun so far.
A bit difficult to control, but in a space dogfighting sim it's going to take awhile to get used to the 3D environment anyway. A bit disorienting at first.

I'm glad I don't live where that stuff happens. My house is not even paid off yet, can't imagine losing it.

not sure how long ago it was but tornados even leveled whole neighborhoods downtown in minneapolis

No, doesn't really matter right now. It's pre-alpha and most peripherals aren't fully supported right now. Someone mentioned a Sidewinder 2 from awhile ago worked pretty well, but people with X52 and X55 are reporting a few issues.

I'm thinking of getting the x55 for independent engine throttle control

need something less expensive

and i need the joystick as well

so the question is should i buy a standalone joystick or buy the flight pedals and throttle to go with any joysticks
