Sadly, it does say on the website that it is 2397 Euro.

I am lefty so I support anything that caters for our breed. Sadly this interesting
piece of engineering is outta the question for about 95% of us. Even at the
stated £450 price mark... Thats sad cause I think it has great potential.

Especially with the ability to customize / interchange the sticks.
Maybe to a yoke design or a wheel attachment.

Companies like Saitek are great at ergonomics and design
but their build quality and components are so sub standard.

I'd welcome a new quality competitor however I must agree that at
that cost I'd rather buy myself a great used motorcycle than a joystick.

w00t?! +2000€?!

Flight sims are a niche market as it is, and this joystick no matter how good or real it feels / is - will be available to what, 0.0001% of the virtual pilots??

For this amount I'd rather buy a Warthog + Simped rudder pedals, and still have enough money to buy 2 or 3 spare ones of each!

Like a lead cloud, it just won't float.
