Nice job Rev!
How hard do you think it would be to take a better PC stick and change out the board with an Aviator board? That way you could have a better stick and throttle combo with Xbox compatability. I was thinking of tackling that if the game is as good as it seems. I would think the only real challenge would be figuring out any power issues.

Once you get into the POV and Joystick functions you are running into a LOT of very very tiny wires. I would not recomend messing with those as you will more than likely be buying a new stick (or two). I have found however that the aviator joystick is much less jerky and serisously easy to aim with after I used Bunsenbeaker's zip tie mod. Just use 2 zip ties to lesson the spring tension at the base of the stick (see pic)
 Thanks Bunsenbeaker! Rev

Different Mod
what I did with this AV8TR was to addres the problem with the hand rest and also swaped some button functions around. the RB(Button) for the X wich is the thick oragne wire inside the stick and one of the thin orange wire coming out of the stick. also the LSB (Button) for the B which is the zoom this is the Dark thick Purple wire and the thin yellow wire coming out of the stick. also removed the lock that the X button and added some foam dots on it to make the button more accsesible ans make the HAT stick easier to use. also added a foam dot to make the new B Button which now is on the LSB.
The other guy's aviator looks nice with the new button(Just A coment) If you have any questions hey feel free to ask.
